Adrien Broner has built a reputation for being as unpredictable outside the ring as he once was inside it, and his latest viral moment proves the point.

According to Hot 97, the former boxing champion recently joined the “Toxic Test: Honest Answers Only” challenge. In this social media trend, participants are expected to give raw, unfiltered responses to personal questions.

When asked to name the best sex he’s ever had, Broner wasted no time in dropping a name that immediately grabbed attention. “Rubi Rose is definitely top two,” he alleged in his post, adding that she gave him “some of the best sex” he’s ever experienced. The confession shocked fans, especially since Broner and the rapper-model have never been publicly linked.

Clips of the moment spread quickly across TikTok, Instagram, and X, racking up millions of views and sparking a wave of commentary.

On Instagram, many of the responses zeroed in on Broner’s decision to put the claim out publicly. One follower wrote, “I had faith but. Nah u fried, dyed and laid to the side.”

Another joked about how the post was crafted: “He was probably laying on his stomach twiddling his feet together when he wrote this.”

Some fans criticized the move as reckless. “Baby, $100k would have been on your head immediately after I got the notifications! N****s be messy, man!” one person commented.

Another summed up the reaction as a cautionary tale: “Step by step booklet on how to burn every bridge in your life 😂.”

The viral moment comes as Broner has already been in the middle of headline-making controversies.

Just weeks earlier, his appearance on Cam’ron and Ma$e’s It Is What It Is podcast shifted from boxing talk to awkward exchanges with the hosts. He compared Treasure “Stat Baby” Wilson to Coco Jones, asked her about her weight, and directed a questionable remark at Arabia Tillery. Producers ultimately cut the segment short, with Cam’ron later calling him a “junkie” and an “alchy.”

That appearance set off a chain reaction across hip-hop media, with figures like Sen City and M.RECK weighing in on how Broner should have been handled. Blue Blood Sports TV, a longtime friend of the boxer, said Broner was in no condition to be filmed, describing him as “spaced out” during the Las Vegas trip where the taping occurred.
