    Broner is not playing anything, he is imitating. Big difference. Another big difference was Floyd let his talent speak for itself then he brought the persona.

    Because I responded to one post that I found funny considering that I remember the subject matter and decided to make a joke of it, you get all whiffed and announce that I'm "following you around." You haven't changed much.:-(

    Peoples overt reactions, be they positive or negative, have shown that he is having an impact.

    The amount of hate he's receiving by some of the worst posters and racists on this site just increases my support for the kid. If these clowns are hating on him then supporting the future face of boxing gotta be the right move!

    I can't even tell what makes me a bigger fan anymore: his skills/funny persona or wanting to see his haters suffer. I'm gonna have a great few years on here watching these sissy little suckers whine and cry about all of Broners inevitable success and rise to stardom. Oh how its gonna suck for them to be a fan of a sport where you hate the guy who's the face of the sport so much it brings you to tears of frustration.

    His out of ring antics are genious! He's 22 and has barely done **** yet he's already surpassing the likes of of lontime HBO/Sho fighters like Ward/Donaire/Martinez and those guys are some of the best fighters in the sport and legit top p4p proven fighters! He's gonna be HUGE!

    Need any further proof of this kids immense popularity ALREADY! after having done nothing but looking like he's a future p4p star??? look no further than this Forum, every 2nd thread is about him! You'd swear he was Mayweather or Pac the way he's being talked about.

    and don't give me that BS about the HBO backing making him big cause HBO has backed some of the top p4p fighters in the sport who are proven like Martinez/Donaire/Dawson/ Gamboa and Broner at 22 is already more popular than any of them.

    Floyd is nowhere near as dumb as Broner but I'm not sure why you're comparing the wanabee to the original

    But you're right Floyd's a genius that's why he wanted his fights in Michigan instead of Vegas so 'he could appeal to the urban demographic' :lol: Yes he said that back in the day. He also signed himself to James Prince who exploited him, turned him upside down and shook the coins out of his socks

    Floyd knows the boxing business now (to a degree) and has made some good moves and has been a great boxer, but let's not pretend he's particularly intelligent. Aside from his ability Haymon made Floyd who he is

    Anyway why again is Broner's success based on intelligence, over ability and HBO hype, please enlighten us, oh yea because he's a Floyd wanabee :nut
