Adrien Broner has always been one of boxing’s most naturally entertaining personalities, but the latest round of viral clips has people laughing a little less and side-eyeing a whole lot more. Over the last few days, Broner has been popping up on streams with DeenTheGreat — and the footage has been messy. One clip shows him clearly intoxicated as people around him try to stop him from driving. Another shows him getting rejected after trying to kiss a woman on stream. In addition to multiple confrontations, the 36-year-old was also caught on camera asking for Uber money.

That’s why the latest moments hit differently and are alarming. AB has always been a walking soundbite, but now the reactions are split between “this is hilarious” and “somebody needs to check on him.” World Boxing News noted that the conversation around the streams shifted from jokes to concern, with some observers questioning whether these appearances are helping Broner or just turning his real-life struggles into content.

And that concern makes sense when you remember who Broner was supposed to be. Coming out of Cincinnati, he became one of boxing’s brightest young stars, winning world titles across four weight classes and building a persona loud enough to make people tune in, whether they loved him or hated him. But the last decade has been a lot rougher. Losses to names like Marcos Maidana, Mikey Garcia, Manny Pacquiao, and most recently, Blair Cobbs changed the way people talked about his career. In the Cobbs fight, Broner lost by unanimous decision after being dropped in the second round, and his record fell to 35-5-1.

Still, none of this is shocking in the sense that Broner has always been must-see TV. The man made post-fight interviews feel like skits, talked like he was cutting WWE promos, and turned even regular public appearances into viral moments. The difference now is that the comedy comes with a little sadness attached. What used to feel like AB being AB now sometimes feels like people watching a former champion spiral in real time. So with that in mind, here are Adrien Broner’s wildest crashout moments on screen — some funny, some chaotic, and some that got way darker than they probably felt in the moment.

1. The “Anybody Can Get It” / “Can Man” Speech

This is probably the most classic AB clip ever. After a win, Broner coined one of boxing’s funniest self-given nicknames by saying people could call him the “Can Man” because “anybody can get it.” Africans, Americans, Dominicans, Mexicans. It was funny, ridiculous, and peak prime Broner confidence.
