In case you missed it, this happened last night:

That wasn't a knockout, but it was the first time Adrien Broner got knocked down in his career. He later suffered his first loss thanks to a hungry Marcos Maidana. It was shocking to watch (and a cause for celebrationfor others). Here's something even more shocking: Broner actually admitted Maidana was the better man. "I’m OK. I’m still a three-time world champion in three different weight classes. Tonight Maidana was just a better man, and he fought a better fight, and I hope the fans still get what they deserved.”

Unsurprisingly, Broner is looking for an immediate rematch. We'll seen when and if that gets scheduled. But for now, his Twitter mentions are probably in shambles.
