Former four-division boxing champion Adrien Broner is drawing concern after footage from a livestream at a Los Angeles concert appeared to show him slumped over backstage before emergency medical personnel and friends helped him leave the venue.

TMZ reported Sunday, November 8, that the incident happened Saturday night at a Skilla Baby concert in downtown Los Angeles. Broner appeared in rapper Blueface’s livestream before slumping over on a couch, according to the report.

What the livestream reportedly showed

According to TMZ’s account of the video, an EMS worker attended to Broner while friends helped lift him from the couch and guide him toward a staircase. The report says he appeared to go in and out of responsiveness while being assisted downstairs.

Broner was eventually placed in a wheelchair and taken from the backstage area to a vehicle outside the venue. TMZ said it had contacted Broner’s booking agent for comment but had not received a response at the time of publication.
