    Wtf is going on with this forum?
    These threads are made after every ****ing fight now!

    If the fight was fixed, then Broner would have gotten stopped. He would have taken an actual dive.

    I have a theory that Broner was talking utter unmitigated ****. I don't have any corroboration other than we are talking Adrian Broner.

    Well, the reason it's brought up is Broner did nothing, I repeat nothing to win that fight. He's been a professional for years, he had to know he was going to have to take it to him. Manny didn't have to really fight here to win.

    The conspiracy runs deep then because he keeps on doing nothIng. He'd have beaten Vargas if he'd worked a bit more, but that isn't his thing.

    dive, no. he just got paid and fought in a manner of self preservation. have the pride to hear the final bell but not put himself in any danger of getting hurt.

    maybe if he was younger and not established and hadnt had the pay days he has already accumulated he may have fought a braver fight but he took the money and ran

    I think it was a gentleman's agreement that if broner loss he get money from Floyd cuz Floyd is broke, basically broner is a bum and got pimped out

    Mayweather has lost like five fights and he's on the inside if you're not on the inside you're on the outside I see what he is doing. He only fights at MGM
