    Great fight! Really fun fight that even casual fans could appreciate. I was more impressed with Taylor. He stepped up big time and might have pulled it off if not for Broner letting his hands go in the closing seconds of the last round.

    Full of platitudes and self righteous grandstanding replete with unnecessary bombast. Nothing remotely impressive about that fellow yet he still demans you "subscribe or die" to his channel of verbal abortions.

    Pretty common for your garden variety YT boxing pundit.

    It was indeed an entertaining fight and Broner fought much better then in his last fight against Molina. He finally's showed some aggression after some wake-up punches by Taylor.
    I also agreed with the scoring, had it the same as 2 of the judges.

    Good fight with respect for both fighters.

    It was a good fight, but nothing great.

    Just annoying that Showtime probably could have gotten Roman G vs. Yaegashi and Estrada vs. Segura + the Inoue fight, hell, + the Jackie Nava fight all for the price of the Broner/Matthysse/Berto triple header.

    Fight was a hell of a lot better than I was expecting and was worth the price of admission. Both guys had their moments and had the other hurt and the kd was the cherry on top. Not sure what Broner struggling with Taylor says (nothing good I am sure) but it was fun to watch

    Its sad but fighters of that weight do not attract ratings.

    That fight was a lot better than good, great fight! Unfortunately people can't get past their hate for Broner to acknowledge it was. And I could care less what ranking Taylor had, he put up a great fight and pushed Broner.

    Because it was mentioned before Provodnikov vs Algieri that the winner will fight Pacquiao. No one complained when they heard about that but when Algieri shocked everyone and won he's all of a sudden a joke fight.
