Adrien Broner was carried out of Skilla Baby’s concert in downtown Los Angeles by EMS workers on Saturday night after appearing unresponsive on Blueface’s livestream.

The footage showed Broner looking out of it before he slumped over on a couch. An EMS worker then came over to check on him. She and several of Broner’s friends lifted him off the couch and carried him toward a flight of stairs.
On the way down, Broner seemed to drift in and out of responsiveness. He eventually came around enough to walk the rest of the way with help, and his friends and EMS workers guided him into a wheelchair.
As of Sunday morning, there has been no update from Broner or his team. It has not been confirmed whether he was taken to a hospital or what caused the episode. TMZ reported that it reached out to his booking agent for comment.
The scene was hard to watch for fans who have followed Broner’s struggles over the last few years, especially because it is not the first time this has happened recently.
In August, Broner was carried out on a stretcher during a livestream. His streaming partner DeenTheGreat later said Broner had been hospitalized with pancreatitis, an inflammation of the pancreas that is often linked to heavy drinking. Deen said doctors warned Broner his drinking had become a danger to his life. Broner was seen drinking again on stream in Atlanta soon after leaving the hospital, according to World Boxing News.

Weeks later, Broner posted from a hospital bed asking for prayers. He said he was starting a 30 day cleanse and asked people not to offer him drinks. A few days after that, he shared that he had walked for the first time and promised fans the “regular AB” was coming back.
The 37 year old Cincinnati native is a former four division world champion who won titles from super featherweight to welterweight. Outside the ring, his public battle with alcohol has played out in front of fans online, with friends and fellow streamers repeatedly voicing concern.
Baller Alert will update this story when there is word on Broner’s condition.
