He lost to an elite P4P fighter and he's being trashed, being told he should retire? Broner showed heart and courage, he gets better as a fight progresses and was landing some brilliant combinations late in the Mikey fight. He's clearly like any decent B grader. He's a boxer who goes OUT OF HIS WAY TO FIGHT THE BEST. Yet you're quick to support any belt milker. Broner simply isn't at his best at 147 (his 4th weight class by age 28). He came from 126. I STILL enjoy watching the highlights of the Maidana-Broner fight because it was what he deserved but he has continued to fight the best. I dislike boxers for who they are outside of the ring if they go full ****, but who he is as a boxer redeems him for me, as a boxing fan.
The calls to retire are silly, he's still young and he can make money still even if he's being used to pad up and comers records. But it's not surprising he's getting a lot of hate. If you talk trash like he did you have to walk the walk and he's never been able to do that. The hype around him at one stage was also silly, when it was clear to many he didn't have the skills.
This thought just popped in my head: He reminds me of Devon Alexander a bit. Did plenty enough that they can sleep well on their career. But despite truly tremendous early success at such a young age never lived up to seeming potential, then looked to have fell off a cliff.
Bro, AB refused to even give himself a chance to win, pathetic in my book. If that's all he can give, he's beyond DONE . When her threw, very rarely, it proved he could land. Being scared to be slightly embarrassed is no excuse. Too much physical talent for his mental midget mind. Tyson syndrome.
Any man who steps in the ring and puts his health and even potentially life on the line for the entertainment of others deserve respect.
Broner's boxing IQ and fundamental skills are too low. Should he retire? No. He didn't really take damage this fight, but that was pretty much the best "broner". Mikey was just too smart and fundamentally sound. His guard, position, timing, movement were all too good for Broner.
I still feel sick when I remember Max Kellerman saying he's a cross between Pernell Whitaker and Floyd Mayweather. It doesn't get more ridiculous than that. He is a good gatekeeper for 140 and 147.
Broner is a loudmouth POS. People like seeing such an arrogant tool get humbled. If he was a great guy then he would be more likeable.
broner is good. he fights better fighters then most. all his losses are vs really good fighters. maidana , porter, garcia man to even fight all those guys you are boss and u dont back down from nowone. if all these guys were willing to fight the best like broner boxing would be much better. and hes was willing to fight manny pac but he wanted more money i think
He doesn't do it for entertainment, he does it because he's "About Billions" so please give us a break with this. The guy does nothing but talk crazy **** about how he's some great star boxer, he needs to take the lumps that come with a weak and timid performance like that.
who do u think his best win is ? wats his name? cuz he has some good wins but he lost all the big ones. but still hes a good fighter.
