    Seriously, why did you guys expected that? A two weight class jump vs a boxer with a good chin and you expect an easy destruction?

    Shows lack of boxing knowledge

    And here comes the classic esb logic: if an unpopular undefeated fighter wins a close fight = automatic robery. Gtfo with that

    Because everyone hates Broner and he said before the fight that he would kick Paulie's ass. SO when he doesn't stop him, he's soooooooo fake and he's a **** fighter.


    He won a belt in his first fight at WW. No one wants to give him credit for moving up two weight classes and winning a belt.

    Calm down Adamek. :lol:

    His point was that people shouldn't have expected Broner to move up two weight classes and destroy a belt-holder.

    Come now. Malignaggi's a world class opponent, who's a proven tough cookie. Got any more example, because obviously it doesn't happen often.

    Actually, when you talk so much trash, it's only right that people expect you to deliver big in the ring. Broner really needs a wake-up call because no-one could have argued if this had been called a draw. If he has any sense, he should be worried about his performance in this fight.

    no, i actually give him credit that he won a belt in his first fight after jumping 2 divisions, it's not like it happens every weekend

    but Broner should stop the trash-talking, especially when it's something he can't later back in the ring, it makes him look like a fraud

    Isn't the "future of boxing" clearly supposed to beat or possibly stop a past prime feather fisted fighter who had a hard time with someone like Cano?
