I'm a fan of Broner btw, but he will NEVER be a top fighter or amongst the greats, I see him losing to any B or + level fighter, Garcia, Porter, Khan, Thurman etc.... He barely beat an old Malignaggi, barely beat journeyman Taylor.. This guy is a C level fighter at best and always will be. I honestly don't ever see him becoming a PPV star.
Nah, it was as if Malignaggi put out the prints on how to whoop him. If Paulie is behind you being exposed, its time to either A: Get a new coach, or B: Get your ass out of boxing. If he fought any of the guys you just listed he would get tuned. Im not even joking when I say this...But if Broner wants to stay at 147 he will get lit the **** up sooner or later, and I would (once again im not joking) take Victor Ortiz in a fight over Broner. Broner cant deal with pressure, and has fits with power. *edit* and hes lazy as hell
He's a parody now... yet he truly still believes he is something special... The thing is he is actually quite a tough kid...I'd love for him to take the Matthysse fight...would be exciting while it lasts.
I didnt know a 23 year old could be a journey man, Taylor isn't that bad, I give Algieri and Broner both credit for beating him.
The Destroyer would knock him out no doubt. Yeah he's lazy and tbh I think his ****iness is just an act, like when he calls out Pacman, deep inside he knows he'll get obliterated but he just does it just so people give him attention (that's what his whole career has been based on). Even though he'll never be a star, he can still fight bums or journeymen with an occasional step up and he'll still make $500k+ per fight, so he'll earn a decent living as a boxer.
I think broner serves a purpose that of which a mid carder on a wrestling show does. Get the crowd hot early. He can do that, but he will never be THE guy. Put him vs Machine on the opening bout of the mayweather vs pacquiao card ... ... ... Then Thurman vs Maidana THEENNNNNNNNN Garcia vs Khan 2
thats a heck of a card lol.....but those could all be separate main events.. would be a waste of money to put it all on 1 card, for the promoters i mean, theyll never do it haha
No it wouldnt at all. Its the superbowl of boxing. Literally EVERYONE will watch this. Its an investment in their fighters future
