    My opinion of Adrien Broner has changed.

    Yes, I still don't find him funny, I still think he tries too hard and I do find him cringeworthy at times BUT he is entertaining. I think we need to lighten up a bit and enjoy it, if I see a link saying "Adrien Broner interview" I'm going to immediately watch it because he's entertaining and I'd definitely go out of my way to watch him fight.

    Boxing needs people like him every now and again. Plus I think he's going to be a great fighter.

    P.s I'd still love to see him get knocked out.

    Broner is a class act and learned you have to sell yourself to make the big money..so he has mad a character just like wrestlers do and it is paying off

    Broner makes boxing a lot more interesting! There is no way you can take this from him.

    You want to see a 'class act'...look up Bob Foster. Broner isn't a class act in any sense. Hell, Floyd had more class than this jackass back in the day.

    He is entertaining to watch. Like you I can't stand his ring entrances, post fight antics and interviews, or the noises he makes when throwing big shots....I just like to watch him fight.

    He's especially classy when he's punching old ladies out and stealing their purses.

    He still does. You never see Floyd continue to disrespect his opponent after the fight. Floyd always shows his opponents respect after he fights them.

    Broner lost any respect I had for him the other night. Not only did he clown the entire fight, in the post fight interview he acted as if he didn't even know Rees' name, and talked a bunch of **** about him.

    I understand all the **** that goes on before the fight. That's just promotion. Anyone who continues to do it after the fight is a jackass.

    My opinion of Broner changed once he destroyed DeMarco. It remains the smae since then. He's the best at 135. Now when he moves up & fights those guys at 140, we'll really see what's up.

    I agree, disrespectful and there's no need but he did go over to Rees and shake hands, tell him he was tough etc. he also went into Rees' changing room after the fight.

    He just plays up to the cameras because that image makes money.

    Boxing needs characters like him or it would be boring. The guys ****ing great for boxing but as far as these Floyd Mayweather comparisons go personality wise, a young Mayweather was never as loud, or as cocky as Broner is.

    But in the ring, Broner is for real. Can't wait for the big fights to come at 140. Danny Garcia, Rios, Peterson, Judah ect
