    I reckon a few years retired and Adrien will be as equally rotund as his old man. Then he can go into sumo, or fight Deontay Wilder.

    Demarco was frozen by Valero's speed and power and couldn't deal with it. Now he has to deal with that plus a superior boxer he has a real problem on his hands literally. Tha Problem Broner TKO 9 Broner a G:deal

    DeMarco took a big test when he faced Valero and failed. But to his credit, that experience didn't ruin him, it made him better and he learned from it. Linares had more speed and mobility than Valero in my opinion and was out-boxing DeMarco, only to get taken into deep waters and get taken out. DeMarco demonstrated patience, focus, durability, and some nicely placed punches to the body that paid off in the later rounds.

    I don't doubt Broner will overwhelm Antonio early, but if DeMarco shows the same tough chin as he did against Linares. Broner will have problems as the fight progresses. Don't dismiss DeMarco the kid a solid fighter.

    Incredible how a morbidly obese middle aged man can call anyone never mind a legit world champion a "bum"

    Solid fighter but nothing special. He will get outboxed by elite guys like Broner. He won't be able to cope with the combination of speed defense and power and will get outboxed and stopped late. Also if Linares didn't have a glass jaw he would have beaten Demarco going away. Guys like Broner who's a stylistic nightmare for most at 135 will always give guys like Demarco fits.

    Broner needs to lear a bit of discipline between fights if he wishes to follow in the footsteps of Floyd , seems to balloon up quite heavily in between fights.

    I don't believe for 1 second there camp would be silly enough to write of DeMarco, who goes into the fight off a solid win and good experience at top level.

    As for Burns these 2 must get it on soon, that fight screams FOTY and could be the making of either or both guys. I think they may wait another division yet before it happens though, really cant see broner staying at 135 for long... and Burns certainly has the physical side to follow him up.

    Broner by close decision... 115-113 ish?

    I agree Broner will give DeMarco fits, and will be doing the better boxing. Demarco might not be special, but he is better and bigger than Escobedo and Perez. Broner will have his hands full in this fight and will have to use his speed and movement to defend himself from the pressure of Demarco who isn't a soft puncher.

    Winner of this fight should fight Miguel Vasquez, a pure boxer who is criminally underrated.

    Oh yeah Burns, can't forget about Ricky Burns. i see a lot of flaws in Burns game but he will make for an entertaining fight against any of the other 135 pounders.
