Last night, after being in the Nevada and taking part in various interviews, the 30-year old managed to gain access to the MGM for the final face-off and was told to leave.

According to TMZ, Broner refused to do so and was subsequently detained by hotel security before being led away in handcuffs by the Las Vegas police.

He was then taken to Clark County Detention Center, where he was released with a misdemeanor trespassing citation.

Broner has had a number of a run-ins on the law over the years, most recently having been ordered to pay $830,000 in December 2019 in relation to a sexual assault charge at a Cleveland nightclub back in June 2018.

The 33-4-1 fighter hasn't been inside the squared circle since his defeat to Manny Pacquiao in January 2019. There's been talk of an upcoming bout with WBC Lightweight champion Devin Haney but Broner is demanding a staggering $20 million from promoter Eddie Hearn to make it happen.

"Give me 20 [million], and I'll take it. Hell no. For what?" Broner replied when asked about Hearn's proposal, as per Boxing News.

"I'm loaded. A bake potato ain't got s**t on me, man. We [Hearn] talked a couple of times, but it wasn't nothing serious."
