Just last week, cryptic messages were posted to Broner’s Instagram page alluding to his being suicidal. If Broner posted those messages, he appears to be doing better, with footage of him working out with longtime friend-turned-foe-turned-friend again Floyd Mayweather.

According to TMZ Sports, Broner was cited for misdemeanor battery after allegedly choking a waitress at a Las Vegas nightclub and spouting, “Bitch, I will knock you out,” allegations that Broner strongly denies.

Vegas police arrived at Drai’s nightclub around 3:30 a.m. Sunday after a waitress claimed that Broner assaulted her.

The woman didn’t require medical attention, and Broner was not arrested.
