    "Whats going on Adrien? What's happening?" "Relax man.. whats up?"

    :lol::rofl

    You're his FKING CORNER, you should be giving him instructions and motivate him, not ask him bewildering questions after he's been on ***** street.

    That has got to be the worst corner I've ever seen, what was Mike Stafford up to?

    Awful corner work, they should have been telling him from the 9th onwards he needed a KO to win. Must have assumed they'd be given a gift.

    Yeah but when they were talking to AB he kept talking over them saying its ok, blah blah

    Cause he didn't want the cameras to pick up that the whole team n himself didn't know what to do ! Lol

    Well the ref was paid in full and I am sure he wanted to call the knock downs a slip:rofl:nut

    I missed the part where Maidana talked in English praising AB:huh
    I hope AB will now realize his rapping sucks as badly as his chin:lol::rofl

    :smoke

    They were as shocked as their fighter. It was odd to hear them argue over whether or not he needed a knockout later too. If Steward was alive, I would say Broner should get with him, drop the shoulder roll and learn to use the jab & movement.

    Even if his corner were giving useful advice it didn't seem like broner would actually listen.

    I actually think broner is quite effective with the Philly shell.

    Goldenboy/Haymon will repackage Broner with Roger or maybe Floyd Sr.
    (Defo not see him w/That corner again)

    i noticed cole took a while to begin that count from the first KD. he definitely was brainstorming if he could call it a slip.

    I agree. It seemed like Broner was more concerned about looking as though he was in control; like it would have been a sign of weakness to acknowledge he needed to change.

    The corner was awful though - no technical advice (that I heard), just "relax" and "let your hands go".

    Both fighter and corner seemed in over their heads last night.

    The corner is often over looked as an intangible advantage/disadvantage in boxing. I remember how chaotic Steven's corner was when he was losing to Golovkin. Three guys screaming three different versions of what you're doing wrong...

    I don't disagree but I think he would be even more effective throwing more jabs and controlling fights that way. He gets hit too much to be able to afford such a low workrate and throwing more jabs would be the way to negate that. Alternatively he could start to move more.

    Totally agree. Not only was it hilarious and just plain stupid and inept....it was darn funny! I love it when a fake fighter gets exposed. Make no doubt about it AB was exposed last night as was his handlers, his corner men, and the referee!!!

    Lets see if he can come back or just stay away with his money and fade out of the game. After all he has been paid. LOL...LOL
