    How did they get people to buy tickets for this fight? It looked like a waste of time and in the end it definitely was. I hope HBO didn't pay Broner too much.

    He's really really being over rated here, that was by no means an amazing performance in my opinion. He got caught plenty of times and if it was anyone with real power he'd have a fair bit of trouble, rees doesn't bang hard so it's ok for broner to just shake his head but if he faces someone with power he's going to have to step his game up.

    I dont care what he does with his money but its a common thing with athletes to blow it all and i dont Hate Broner hes a Great fighter and i enjoy watching him fight, im Scottish and a big Burns fan but i think Broner would Probably beat him i just dont think hes SRL or even p4p at this point and he would struggle with the best at 140 surely people can say negative things about Broner and his hype without being a hater.

    the fight i wanna see the most is broner vs gamboa.

    but gamboa isn't a goldenboy fighter.

    so not holding out much hope on that one. :?

    He needs to fight the winner of broner vs vazquez and then move up, surely that is the only thing that can happen. So many interesting fights at 140. The thing is though that he seems to make weight pretty easy and isn't in any rush at all to go up.

    Yeah, I agree. It happens with all flash boxers though. Broner was hit too often and if he steps up to 140 and fights guys like Maidana, Matthysse, Rios etc., that will cost him. His defence is not good enough to take those shots all night.

    Judging by his interviews he really didn't seem arsed about moving up and it didn't even seem something he'd thought about. He has to step up before people start going overboard, If he can get a few good wins at 140 then fair enough the hype is justified but right now people are giving the guy too much credit, everyone knew what was going to happen tonight so he either has to face the burns vs vazquez winner or move up, If he doesn't then people will soon stop caring and he'll just be another guy going sidewards.
