Adrien Broner may have a few losses on his boxing record, but as far as the former titlist is concerned, he is undefeated when it comes to life.

In a recent interview, the flamboyant boxer from Cincinnati flatout rejected the perception that his upcoming fight against Omar Figueroa Jr. has a redemptive, win-or-go-home, tinge to it. Broner’s reasoning? Redemption is for losers.  

Of course, Broner (34-4-1, 24 KOs), who is holding his current training camp out of Colorado, has recorded losses against Manny Pacquiao, Marcos Maidana, Shawn Porter, and Mikey Garcia, so his point does not exactly concern his history inside the ring but rather his remarkable rags-to-riches transition in life.

“Redemption type of fight?” Broner said of facing Figueroa on Cigar Talk. “First of all redemption is for people who lose. I ain’t ever lost. Yeah, I lost a fight, but you gotta think, bro. I’m from Cincinnati. When I started I was broke. So everything I do from that is a plus.

“Didn’t anybody know me. Ain’t nobody know [other nickname] ‘Twin.’ They know Adrien Broner. They know AB. So everything I do and what I’m doing now is a plus. So redemption? How? How is that redemption.”

Broner, once regarded as one the top talents in the sport, has gone through a series of professional disappointments and personal disruptions in the past few years. Although he picked up a win in his last fight against Jovani Santiago, he did not look exactly stellar doing so.

Nevertheless, Broner believes his place in boxing history is secure, and that he will be enshrined at the International Boxing Hall of Fame in Canastota, New York, some day.

“You (the interviewer) just flew to Colorado, bro (to talk to me),” Broner said. “This ain’t no redemption…so how is this a redemption, bro? I’m that nigga. I don’t ever have to fight again.

“I know that I’m going to the Hall of Fame bro. If I don’t ever fight again, I know I’m going to the Hall of Fame. 100%.”
