    Another year and a half, maybe less?
    I know that Dontae and them will give him the benefit of the doubt but he has been marked for death since the Paulie fight. He is losing his drawing power , because that venue in his hometown has less people than it did when he fought Escabedo at the U.S. Bank Arena.
    I'm really tired of dude getting chances for being just entertaining. That's not enough.
    If Crawford had 80% of that same backing he would be a PPV superstar. Mayweather talked the talk and fought so good ,he made the opponent look like bums, Adrien Broner literally can't beat a C-level fighter.
    Broner is done and Haymon is worse than Arum trying to pimp him out . At least Pacquiao is accomplished, Broner has done nothing.

    2 fights max, mark my words he will win his next fight more convincingly but will get wreck the next. Dude has absolutely no business at 147, he needs to spend some of that money on algeri or another diet coach. Kid should have milked his persona as long as he could at 135-140. He needs to take the pacquaio money asap

    Definitely! Just think about that $40 million Jay-Z offered him or that $4 million Arum offered him. He looks like a bozo now. He can't fight 4 more C level guys and make that money, people don't care about him anymore. His schtick is old.
    Danny and Thurman are being matched in a big fight, Lamont is up next for a shot. Even Khan has been on PPV, Brook took a chance at GGG and gained fame, and Marcos walked of into the sunset mega rich off of his scalp. He has been passed by all of his peers.

    Broner is finished. To be fair he never really got started. This kid is a clown and a waste of talent.

    He may come a cropper even if they try and put him in against someone he is favoured to beat. He wasn't impressive tonight and hasn't been for sone time. He is done. Plain and simple. No re-inventing himself, no turning over a new leaf, no new AB.

    Him vs Khan would be interesting. Khan crushes him I think.

    Waste of talent? I keep hearing this. What talent? He's a yank spoilt hype job that just won't go away, if he was around 20 years ago he wouldn't have made it.

    Khan would box his head off. Broner has no power above 135 and he has no idea how to inside fight. Granados ad success with the jab, Khan would look like he did against Alexander.

    Broner to small for this division. Need to go back to 140lb. He will be more successful there.

    I think they'll match him up with Peterson next.

    yeah, he looked mediocre at best. he has fast hands, good power and great reflexes, but his habit of posing because he wants so bad to look cool, is something he should have outgrown many years ago. if he focused on fighting instead of mugging for the cameras, he would be much better off.

    Broner is a gate keeper. He will lose if he steps up!, he just not fighting to his strengths. He needs to change his style, but he cant, broner better not see Crawford or spence, he is a celebrity who is loosing his boxing status.
