No he's boring and hasn't got the core engine required to make a champ. I ended up just listening to that fight and web browsing until the Thurman fight came on. And I am a boxing nut I watch it all normally and all the podcasts and video updates daily.
I enjoy watching Broner, I cannot stand him as a person though. Be in my top 5 boxers to watch, never really know what you'll get. The guy brings it, he was still trying to walk Maidana down at times in their fight, I was just shaking my head, made for a good fight though, Broner has heart, no one can take that away from him.
Broner stands right in front of his opponents fighting it out while giving himself every opportunity to win and his opponent every opportunity to beat him which makes for pretty good fights at his level.
Broner is not terrible but he is not elite. Those 2 unofficial losses are being quietly being kept on the DL(ponce de leon and the other dude).
Yea I enjoy watching him fight, the Molina fight was a bit of a snoozer though. Sad thing is that Broner will be underrated mostly out of emotion.
I don't really care or enjoy his fights much. I actually prefer watching other mental midgets in Berto and Ortiz.
Thats exactly the reason why I like to watch him as well. The comparisons to Mayweather are inaccurate; Broner at times is flat footed in the ring and likes to sit down on his combination punches and exchange in the pocket. Aside from the 12th round in the Molina fight, he didn't do too much moving.
I do enjoy watching him, even more when he's on the receiving end(maidana). Cause I can't stand a guy having the talent and acting like that, I'm like watta waste.. I don't care about the shenanigans outside the ring but lack of discipline for the body(bloating), leaving camp early and such? I really wish that the Maidana fight knocked some sense into him before another fighter completely ruins him.
I think those 2 might fight again at some point this year. Broner has been clamoring for that rematch.
I think hes in a good position now Everyone things hes terrible and he'll surprise people The expectations for him were way too high earlier but now they couldn't be lower which is good for him I think Probably create some buzz
