Photo by Francisco Perez / Premier Boxing Champions Omar Figueroa Jr. says he isn't going to let the withdrawal of Adrien Broner dampen his performance this Saturday as he gets set to face late replacement opponent Sergey Lipinets in the main event of a Showtime Championship Boxing card. Broner, a former four-division titleholder, announced early Monday that he was pulling out from the fight at the Seminole Hard Rock Casino in Hollywood, Fla., citing mental health issues. Figueroa (28-2-1, 19 knockouts) of Weslaco, Texas didn't take too kindly to the late withdrawal, challenging Broner to show proof that he is seeking professional help for his mental health issues.
