    The fact that he went from fighting pretty lacklustre competition to fighting Maidana and Porter, 15 or so pounds past the first weight he won a world title is pretty admirable. Also, making a statement that he'd willing fight Mayweather was pretty big, he's got the right tools to beat world class fighters, make some serious money, so yer ... good for him.

    Obviously his actions outside the ring are quite outlandish, but most fighters are these days, if he continues carry on in that manner and risks never reaching his true potential, so be it. These same risks could lead to even bigger rewards down the line.

    So porter was a cherry pick? And the fans asked for it dummy, it was the battle for Ohio

    I'll freely admit I admire his immense in ring talent, skills and craft.

    I strongly feel Chino caught him early and hurt him bad, broner wasn't ready to get hit flush with knock out shots, too many to count, at that. Chino I'd be inclined to think he has broners # 9 outta 10 x. But then I feel just as strongly that broner whoops porter 99 outta 100x, and feel like he thought too little of porter added with too much of himself.

    I believe the porter fight was the real wake-up call for AB and he learned his lesson losing to a far inferior fighter in porter. He's tougher, more talent, more skilled, much better hitter with a great chin while porters weak in all reality.

    Chino of course less skilled and technically ugly he's a ****ing beast to deal with once Garcia taught him the basics.

    Broner is pure entertainment in the ring but cringe worthy and embarrassing outside it
