Thread: Is Adrien Broner at least watchable?

I'm gonna admit it to you here guys and gyals: I haven't watched an Adrien Broner fight since he lost to Marco Maidana. I caught the highlight replay of his fight vs. Porter, but was not inclined to watch him.

Has he lost his watchability to you? I think he has. I mean, it's not even worth tuning in to see if he potentially will get his ass handed to him, because quite frankly that has already happened. LOL...

Adrien will most likely go on to be a music executive. I don't see him doing movies like Victor Ortiz, at the very least.

The Adrien Broner train has come to a slow, yet grinding, halt. His last few screeches down the track was at Mayweather in a contrived internal battle between he and some of Mayweather's house fighters. Of course Mayweather is using him to get his club-fighters over, so it's up to Broner to take the bait and win or lose.

But, if he wants any semblance of a decent pay-check for the next three to four years WITHOUT being the punching-bag for guys either staying busy or guys trying to make a name for themselves, then he has to beat anyone that Mayweather hypes up to him- trash them soundly- and then stay the fuck out of the Mayweather camp!

Word!

No doubt, Broner is probably the biggest prick in Boxing. but..........credit where credit is due, he doesn't avoid anyone , he does have talent, is a 4 weight World Champion and he is TOUGH!
He's not the quitter you would expect him to be. He needs to fucking grow up, get a humility transplant , keep to 140lbs maximum and get a decent team around him . He'd be alright then.
We can live in hope, can't we?

Adrian Bone_head is °*smack able*°
But not watchable @Bill Paxtom parentheses make no mistake about it he is still here among us parentheses

Yeah, he's not great to watch but certainly not bad, if he was a 180 in persona people would probably really like him. He's got bad feet or at least doesn't use them, I don't think thats going to change so there are certain people he just isnt likely to beat, BUT he is a tricky counter puncher, he is really tough, and he carries his power throughout a fight. It's actually quite impressive that he probably took the 12th rounds against both Maidana and Porter, I wouldn't be surprised to see him score and upset or two along the road.

Depends really. As long as he is getting beat up and still losing his big name fights, why yes, yes I find him very watchable

I personally think Broner is his own worst enemy. I think he is blessed with a shed load of natural talent but he seemed so busy trying to come across as the new Floyd that he seemed to get lost in that and throw everything away. I also think he should have stayed around at lightweight a lot longer but that would have required more discipline than he seems capable of showing. It's a sad case really for him and boxing.

There was a time that I thought he would have wiped the floor with Khan but not now!

Broner is a talent but he does NO it, he is a obnoxious individual good fighter until he opens his gob
he feels he needs to talk trash, and with his father Cedric The Entertainer a good double act.
Trouble is Broner trys to be a cheap version of Mayweather, and cheap is the word Floyd upset a lot
of people with his trash talk, Broner will never be a loved fighter just a tolerated one.
