Anyone else dislikes Adrian Broner aka Floyd Mayweather wannabe?

I was excited for this kid early on but as time went by and many interviews after this kid tries SO hard to be like mayweather which is kind of creepy and annoying. I was watching the vid where he choked Perez trying to copy Mayweather when he choked Ortiz. He wore the mexican trunks just like mayweather. He tries to be flamboyant and cocky like him. He imitates his fighting style .. this one is not so bad but just another example on how hard he tries. One thing about Mayweather at least he's not being fake or trying to be like anyone else. SO whats up with this creepy man crush, or am I the only one who noticed this?

Honestly, nowadays if you aren't a blood and guts action fighter, you have to be some kind of "Character" to get attention. I think he mimicks Floyd in style and in 'cockiness' because he knows it will sell. People will tune in to see him get beat. Honestly boxing needs it, two gentleman, or even small trash talkers can fight for a unified title and not fill up in arena. Boxing now needs larger than life figures or personalities, so what he's doing gets his name out there and honestly that's what's going to have to happen.

The only upside to it is he seems ot have power, so in about 5 defenses casual boxing fans will be calling him "Mayweather with power" and he'll be marketed. Which is why he'll probably stay at 130 because there's no competition really to fight but there's a lot of publicity to make looking impressive if it's gonna be on HBO. Till he fights someone like JMM and by that time JMM will be gone enough that he'll have a chance. It's how they are gonna market this "brash" new star. And honestly, it's smart. Don't be surprised if you also see him in with Juanma moving up.

this guy is a little prick, and he may try to imitate mayweather, but he is by far not maywether, this kid will get koed sooner or later and id be happy, if there is anything i hate, its people that dont know how to be themselves

you're not the only one who can't stand him outspoken, I'd love to see him get his little hair brush shoved up his ass lol

Total dick but its all good for boxing as it creates a passion in wanting to see him sparked out ;D

Mayweather hardly, is he a three time woman beater. :/

Been waiting ages to say that.

Broner is on to a winner he keeps on mouthing, you keep on hating you watch his fight's hoping
someone shuts his big mouth. He's playing us all is he good for boxing of course he is.!;)

Hope he goes all the way. Annoying and copying but better opposition should happen in second half of 2012.

He's an undercard fighter at this point, I don't think anyone can say that people tune into his fights in hopes of seeing him knocked out. I'm sure that will be the case someday, but it isn't yet.

Yes, he's quite the soggy douche. That is my overall thought out assessment of him.

Also he's no where as good as he thinks he is and HBO needs to get a grip on overly prostituting young prospects.

Since he lost to Ponce De Leon and was awarded a gift, Broner has been carfefully matched with lesser competition.

2/3 of those guys were not punchers, Litzau was a credible opponent, but got caught cold and Broner got a sensational KO of him. Still, Litzau is not the pedigree of fighter as Ponce De Leon, outside of his upset win over Cabellero.

Everyone hates Broner, he's a shit head, and that is why people tune in to watch him. However, he'll keep winning as long as HBO keeps feeding him guys who pose little to no threat.

Agree here. I don't know if its people tuning in to see him but people tuning in to see a HBO card. If live action is on, don't think I've ever turned a card off ;D

Litzau was the perfect opponent to make Broner look good. He has a couple of decent wins, but no chin. That fight was never going to be anything but a slaughter.

He is a good fighter, there is no doubt about it. I see him at the top for a while along with Donaire. He is a prick, number one for being like Mayweather. Number two for actually wanting to be like Mayweather. Floyd is a good fighter but he is a lonely, self indulged, rich prick, who thinks he is better than everyone else, surrounding himself with a bunch of laughing boys and followers. Its nice to have money but if he suddenly lost everything and there was no money to be made from him. Who out of his friends would stick around. I could hazard a guess to the amount.
I think Broner will be around for a while and will be one of the top p4p fighters of the up and comers.

lol

Hindsight is 20/20. Litzau vs. Cabellero was supposed to be a slaughter too.

Also, do we know if Broner himself has a good chin yet ?

God, I hope not. ;D

He's no where near as good as he thinks he is and not even on the same planet as Mayweather in boxing ability. He's just cheap imitation of Mayweather.
