For me its as simple as the later mostly, meaning what DeMarco has proven what he is capable of rather than what Broner has shown he is not. That fight with Linares was no 'fluke'. People have rose colored glasses on for a guy who has been over 8 rounds once...once! I know DeMarco has run much deeper in career and I think he is being written off as some run of the mill also ran. He is as methodical and thinking a fighter as they come. He is a quality fighter that has made solid improvement. He doesn't flatten guys, he cuts them up and beats them up, and he has been there and done that!
Linares was suppose to be the next big thing, and in the early rounds against DeMarco he looked good, but then DeMarco sucked it up and pretty much beat Linares to a pulp. Just saying, DeMarco is no chump, Broner is going to have to put up or shut up.
