    Got dominated tonight. What is there left for him to do? He's done. No point in becoming a gatekeeper.

    Quintero
    PDL
    Maidana
    Porter
    Garcia

    Best win? DeMarco or Taylor?

    C level Broner. Low workrate. Fake defence. Just flashy and tough.

    He won't retire as long as he makes them paydays. He has got 8 baby moma's.

    I think most of his fights will be in Ohio ,this will still keep him in the 1 mil range. He needs a new camp.

    No he can still make some paydays, just not an elite fighter anymore.

    He was never elite ever. He was bigger then most guys at 130,135, even 140. When he started fighting guys as skilled as he was always on the losing end.

    He got gifts against Malignaggi and Granados.

    lol seriously.
    It's not like he got embarrassed. Just outclassed by a brick handed puncher.

    He has way more left to give, and I give him props for being a warrior and remaining competitive till the last bell.

    To be fair he got taken to school by a blown up SuperFeatherweight. And was beaten like a redheaded stepchild by B level Maidana. He is at most a weak champion level fighter. He's a domestic level fighter.

    This. I can't see him getting anymore good paydays after tonight's performance and Broner's ego is too big for him to work on what he's doing wrong.

    He still has fights in him but the blueprint is out, maintain a high work rate and you greatly increase your chances of beating him. No discredit to Garcia, he did a great job boxing Broner ears off, but Broner gives you those opportunities by his low work rate.
