Emergency medical workers attended to Adrien Broner backstage at Skilla Baby’s concert in downtown Los Angeles on Saturday night, November 7. The former four-division world champion appeared unresponsive on a livestream hosted by rapper Blueface and was later wheeled out of the venue.
What the livestream showed
In footage published by TMZ, Broner slumps over on a backstage couch. An EMS worker checks on him, then helps his friends lift him from the couch. Broner appears to drift in and out of responsiveness on the stairs before making it down with help. Friends and EMS workers guide him into a wheelchair and help him into a car outside.

A separate incident in August
In August, Broner was taken away on a stretcher during a separate livestream. His streaming partner DeenTheGreat later said Broner had been hospitalized with pancreatitis and voiced concern about his drinking, according to World Boxing News. That account concerns the August hospitalization. The cause of Saturday’s episode remains unconfirmed. World Boxing News
