Adrien Jerome Broner, born on July 28, 1989, in Cincinnati, Ohio, is a prominent American professional boxer known for his achievements across multiple weight classes. As of 2025, at the age of 35, Broner’s net worth is estimated to be approximately $100,000.
This figure reflects a significant decline from earlier in his career, where his net worth was reported to be as high as $9 million.
Early Life and Career Beginnings
Broner began boxing at the tender age of six, crediting the sport with steering him away from the perilous street life of Cincinnati.
His amateur career was impressive, boasting 300 wins against 19 losses. Turning professional in 2008, Broner quickly made a name for himself with a series of first-round knockouts, setting the stage for a promising career.
Professional Achievements
Throughout his career, Broner secured world championships in four weight divisions:
- WBO Super Featherweight Title (2011-2012): Broner claimed this title by defeating Vicente Martin Rodriguez in 2011.
- WBC Lightweight Title (2012-2013): He won this title after a notable victory over Antonio DeMarco.
- WBA Welterweight Title (2013): Broner moved up in weight to clinch this title.
- WBA Light Welterweight Title (2015-2016): He added this to his accolades with a win over Khabib Allakhverdiev.
These accomplishments underscored his versatility and skill across different weight categories.
Financial Trajectory
Despite earning substantial sums from his fights, Broner’s financial status has seen a dramatic downturn. In a 2020 court appearance, he claimed to have only $13 to his name, highlighting severe financial mismanagement.
This was a stark contrast to previous years when his net worth was estimated in the millions.
Career Earnings
Broner’s career earnings have been significant, with notable payouts including:
- $1.25 million from his fight against John Molina in 2015.
- $1.35 million for the bout with Shawn Porter the same year.
- $1 million each from fights against Adrian Granados, Mikey Garcia, and Jessie Vargas between 2017 and 2018.
- $1.5 million from his match with Paulie Malignaggi in 2013.
- $2.5 million for facing Manny Pacquiao in 2019.
Despite these earnings, Broner’s financial challenges have been evident, possibly due to legal issues, extravagant spending, and other personal factors.
Endorsements and Sponsorships
Throughout his career, Broner secured endorsement deals with brands such as Reebok and FashionNova.
However, details regarding the financial terms of these partnerships remain undisclosed.
Recent Developments
In October 2022, Broner announced a three-fight, 12-month deal worth $10 million with BLK Prime.
However, this partnership was short-lived, and by March 2023, he had signed with Hall of Fame promoter Don King.
These moves indicate Broner’s ongoing efforts to revitalize his boxing career and financial standing.
Personal Life
Broner is a father to seven children: Mac, Adrien Jr., KJ, Na’Riya, Admire, Armani, and an unnamed child. He is also a stepfather to three children from his wife, Arie Nicole’s, previous relationship. The couple’s relationship has been tumultuous, marked by public disputes and reconciliations.
