    Of course not. I'm just disapointed. He looked to be in the best possible shape and moved well but he just did a Broner. In fact from this day onward, I will describe any heinous toilet activity as 'Doing a Broner'.

    spence is really not as big a welter as is popular to make him out to be, its his strength being used from a well balanced stand that makes him appear to be bigger than he is. final effect is still the same, if youre his size, he will overpower you.

    Not because he’s black. I never do that. I respect the sport too much. The Olympics is the only time I root for someone for a transparent reason. I think the only time I might root for a guy just because he’s black is if the black guy was fighting a well known racist, or something.

    I bet you Broner weighed more tonight than Spence did against Ocampo.

    He weighed more than that when he fought John Molina at 140 albeit he came in at 141

    Broner: Official: 141 - Unofficial: 157
    Molina: Official: 140 - Unofficial: 154

    That's why I go out of my way to try and find out fight night weights - there are plenty of fighters who campaign in a lower division who are heavier than ones that campaign in a higher one or even sometimes 2 higher, so sometimes the fighter who is moving up in weight to fight a so called bigger fighter will not only be the heavier man in the ring but will actually outweigh their opponent by a significant amount.

    Crawford is a good example of this, even up at 147 in his third division when he fought Horn who weighed about 155 on fight night, whereas Crawford weighed 157 when he was fighting the likes of Diaz and Postol down at 140 and he even weighed close to that for a couple of his fights down at 135 (152 and 153 respectively) and he'd spent months with his S&C coach bulking up and adding more weight for his 147 debut.

    Pac is way past it but this tells you how good Pac was in his prime. A prime Pac, or least a Pac who fought ODLH and Cotto, would put any version of Broner to sleep, literally. Pac has enough talent to beat several WW and JRWW who are in their prime. I don't expect much from Pac of he keeps on fighting but this should be an indicator that he was a beast!

    What is with the crazies who picked Broner?

    Broner was always going to lose this on work rate alone. He doesn't throw enough punches which has been the issue for years.
