    Just wanted to get that of my chest. Not been as happy watching Broner loose since Rocky Balboa did a number on Clubber Lang.

    Watching the Broner hypetrain get derailed by Maidana was one of the funniest moments in boxing history

    I agree,if you going to act like Prince Naz then you have to fight like Prince Naz. His train derailed because of lack of hunger and Millions of pounds in the bank and invested. Broner will end up in Wallmart if he dose not watch out and the mayweather gravy train stops.

    Hamed's train derailed because he was beaten by a better fighter. And everybody knows it.

    I have 2 points for you.
    First im not a hater and a keyboard warrior and have seen Bererra live not just on tv eating popcorn.Real fan not armchair.
    Second Prince Naz was a **** but one hell of a fighter, he had millions in the bank and as we saw last year got a place in the boxing hall of fame. His hunger had gone but not his legacy or wealth.

    Not a terrible comparison, but Broner's better. He's talented. I would take either Postol or Crawford to beat him but wouldn't be shocked with him beating either.

    Hamed was done by the time he fought Barrera. He had all the tools to be an ATG except for one, which is the dedication.

    Broner is already light years beyond what Lacy achieved in boxing to suggest otherwise is ridiculous.:deal

    Broner is a better fighter than lacy ever was. Broner has never been a lower B or C level fighter

    Yeah. I agree with those who feel Broner is better than Lacy. The kid is very good. He's just not the best. 140 is a talent rich division. And he jumped up to 147 (to soon) to test himself against a very dangerous fighter in Maidana. He got put on the canvas. But, he finished the fight on his feet...and looked good in some of those later rounds. He fought a very experienced boxer in Paulie at 147 (in Paulie's backyard)...and got a close decision. Again he met Shawn Porter at 144 who is a beast. Porter's rugged style, strength and size were too much. But, he put Porter on his a$$ late in the fight. He's too small for 147, given the holes in his defense, lack of movement at times, and his power doesn't carry up as well. But, he's a good matchup for anyone at 140.

    He had one of the lowest boxing IQs I have ever seen. EVER. That's a big tool to lack. You can make all the excuses you want, but he was beaten by a better fighter.

    1. I never wrote you were a hater or a keyboard warrior. I don't even know you. I have no idea why you felt compelled to write that.
    2. Hamed was beaten by a better fighter in Barrera. And everyone, except for Hamed's fans, recognizes that.

    Im not a big Prince Naz fan, I just think he was good for the sport,as someone posted his desire had all but gone but by that time he was filthy rich and had a legacy,Broner has done nothing to justify acting a **** and having his fro brushed by his gang bangers in the corner Naz earned it. I saw Berrera loose to khan because he was past it and I bet if Kahn was interviewed tomorrow and was asked how he would of got on with a prime hungry Naz he would admit he has no chance. Its not only styles that makes fights it's timing to and im a massive MAB fan,i even travelled hundreds of miles for the weigh in but knew he had no chance against khan but I saw a legend and Naz is one too.
