Former boxing champion Adrian Broner announced Monday he withdrew from an upcoming fight against Oscar Figueroa, citing mental health concerns.

The four-time world champion revealed his decision on social media. The fight was set to take place in Hollywood, Florida, and was set to air on Showtime.

"Sorry to all my fans but #MentalHealth is real and I’m not about to play inside the ring I’ve watched a lot of people die playing with they boxing career and that is something I won’t do just pray for me I love the sport of boxing to much to not give my all and I feel Like I came up short before because my mind wasn’t 100% there and I be dam if I make that mistake again I need to make some changes for the better instead of worrying about other people feelings and pleasing them when In all reality I have nothing to prove to nobody," he wrote in an Instagram post.

The Cincinnati native is 34-4-1 in his boxing career with 24 knockouts.

Broner has had his troubles outside of the ring.
