Make sure to judge all his fights accordingly.
One thing I can say is listening to Broner makes me dislike Mayweather a bit less. Broner sucks up most of my disgust
Just try not to let that effect you when you score his fights or how he fights. No argument here though. He's a dickhead.
Broner is a lil cunt to be respectful to Paulie's face then a few minutes later talk about his ex-slut and taking his belt n all this.Quote:

Paulie acted like a huge sore loser at the end claiming because it was his hometown he essentially deserved a gift decision.
Let Broner fight Matthysse and justice will be served.
They tired that already. Burns punked out. Didn't want the fightQuote:

Broners people are doing a great job moving this kid around the classes so that when he's 25 years old and physically matured (hopefully mentally too) he'll take all comers on!!
At 23 years old all talented fighters are still carefully matched and theres a purpose and a reason for it! He is NOT overly protected but he is getting his lessons in. Paulies style needed to be exposed to Adrian because keeping your cool as a fighter moves away from you all night can be frustrating but he did well taking on a seasoned veteran!
I hope he's around at 27 years old, should be an exciting fighter, he comes to fight thats for sure! Loved the chopping right hand to the body to slow Paulies jab down. Ray
I don't particularly care for Broner and Paulie only impresses me because he was a two time champion that couldn't punch his way out of a paper bag wet or dry. He has skills and speed with savy through experience exposing Broner's lack of experience. I watched the fight to be entertained and Broner showboated at times like an ass but he learned something by fighting Paulie. If he fought someone with Paulie's skill with power, he wouldn't run to the drawing board, his people would drag him there but that's a personal thing and I am only a boxing fan with cable.
My hatred for Broner is tempered by the fact that twenty years from now he'll be living in the same housing project he grew up in and he'll look like his dad.
There's a lot to be said about having class, not sure if it can ever be taught or it is something inherently part of a man. Though perhaps its not Adrian's fault for not having someone in his life to show him how to be a proper man, a class act. Oh well fuck that fuck face motherfucker.
He's a bum in the truest sense of the word. A no good bum.
Let's not wish that on anyone. That's a fate worse than death.Quote:

His handlers have padded his record nicely up to this point...but if this kid doesn't take his business in the ring more seriously...he is going to get badly exposed. His wide, flat footed stance and surprising lack of lateral movement don't inspire a ton of confidence in his vastly overrated defense. And he clearly didn't carry his supposed power that well up to 147.
Very true, but Floyd also wasn't a mega draw until he got some limelight and started to behave like a chimp. Sadly his prior accomplishments didn't have anything to do with people starting to take notice, and really he's never been quite as impressive as he was before anyone hated him. Broner is obviously anything but smart, however he is going to bank a lot more coin being such a turd:(. IF his antics are just for show and he trains as hard as he would in any case, it'll only help him, and a lot. That's not to say he won't blow all of his money or wind up in jail or something, but that's a distinct possibly no matter what with people like this.Quote:

Also, with Floyd...despite his "Money" persona...there is no questioning how serious he takes his craft. There is no one as disciplined and skilled as him in the fight game. He also has a much stronger foundation than Broner...having had an accomplished amatuer career and possessing incredible pedigree. Broner has been able to get by B level competition. But i am far from convinced that he can handle bigger challenges both inside and outside of the ring. We shall find out.
I was looking for a photo that does Broner's dad justice but can't find one. Never mind.Quote:
