It's been a rough week for the boxer.

Adrien Broner has been having himself a week. We reported earlier this week that Broner was being sued by Pristine Jewelers in New York for owing them $1.252 million in unpaid jewelry. Broner was also trolled by 50 Cent for being out of shape leading up to his big fight against Manny Pacquiao. Now things are getting worse for the boxer as he was arrested just two days before Christmas, according to TMZ.

Broner was arrested in Broward County, Florida on Sunday. There was a warrant out for his arrest due to his failure to appear in court earlier this month after being arrested in December of 2017 for driving without a license, registration, and insurance. Despite the arrest, Broner was immediately let go after being booked.

This isn't the first time Broner has failed to appear in court. His constant evasions of the justice system led to him being arrested back in July. The boxer was also arrested back in February for "sexual battery" in an Atlanta mall.

In a report from TMZ, the woman who accused Broner of sexual battery filed a lawsuit against him back in April.

With his fight against Pacquiao just under 4 weeks away, Broner's got a lot on his plate to figure out.
