    it works for floyd because he does villainous **** at times(beating chicks up, burning money etc.... ) broner interviews make me cringe, its so forced.....people can see through it...nothing wrong with talking **** and playing the bad guy to make more $$$$ but u have to learn how to be creative and attack it from a different angle.


    maybe hired a wwe promo writer or something....floyd style works for floyd

    he just try to hard

    Between the forced villanous **** and the plain dumb **** (hair brush gimmicks and twitter pics) Broner is coming off as a clown and a kid trying too hard to be cool

    I think he didn't do anything stupid this time in the post fight, so maybe somebody is finally giving him good advice in that regard

    Broner is one talented guy, he doesn't need to talk **** and be controversial like Floyd to sell his fights since Broner's style is actually exciting. He's not like Mayweather in that sense.

    The "no homo" bit made me cringe. Then he said something about his opponent being dung on the sole of a shoe. That was just so damn pathetic. I was thinking to myself, "Is this guy really saying those things on national television during the biggest event of his career?!"

    I do think he forces it but at the same time the idiotic choice of words is really part of who he is. Watch his Youtube videos. He talks and acts the same way he portrays himself on HBO. He comes off as a dumb high school kid. And I say this as a fan of his. Fortunately for him I watch him for the work he does in the ring.

    I was shaking my head we he said "no homo" in the post interview which made it clear that he was really trying to be floyd. The guy has to be himself he comes off as a confused 14 year old boy that steals identities that he sees on TV.

    thats what people in the hood say when they say something that can be construed as gay. It has nothing to do with trying to be like FLoyd

    wtf is forced broner is broner. hes not acting like anyone but him self and certain types of people dont like him because he reminds them of another person
    certrain people like to hate. theres enough boxers in the world for the sport to have someone like broner. he might not be for everybody but thats a personal thing if you ask me.

    people come from all different walks a life. i went to sports bar and watch the fight and when he said no home everyone cracked up and was like aww hell naw
    broner the truth. and now you sitting were ever you were at shaking your head like no he didn't.

    the world is a big place and we all dont think or act the same. something you might no say or do some one else will say and do. guess what it dont make you better or worse just different. oh and floyd did not create no homo its commonly used to indicate you're not gay after saying something that sounds gay :good

    can't wait to see the 24/7 when broner fights Floyd..

    kind of be hard to see who wins..Floyd's dibiase schtick or Broner's talking brush gimmick.

    I think he said something like " anyone who signs a contract with me is gotta know they stepped in ****", something to this effect. Such a talented boxer, I'll watch every one his fights but I might turn off the TV before the interview.

    The "No homo" bit was cringeworthy. I love him as a fighter and i think he's a genuinely nice guy who knows the sport inside out, but some of the things he says are just mental.

    Its sad that the cum that he shot in your eye has you so blind that you can't see or don't want ti admit that his whole style in and out of the ring is nothing more then a Mayweather impression.

    In the ring the kid its good but how you can ride his dick so hard not to admit he's a clown outside of it is astonishing.
