DeMarco vs. Broner - Saturday night chat/fight thread

[Mars_ax]

Broner is a goobersmoocher. But I'm sure I'll watch his next fight, just on the off chance that someone makes him eat canvas.

He is really good at what he does, though - if he'd just shut the hell up I'd like him a lot better.

If you're a small black person with lots of skills who wants to make big money in professional boxing there's no better way to get yourself known and talked about than being a complete dick. Look how well it worked for Floyd.

Yeah, I know, I just don't see Broner building a fan base anywhere near Floyd's.

How did you all have the Broner-DeMarco fight at the time of stoppage, i gave DeMarco 1 round so my card read 69-64 Broner

I actually gave DeMarco 2 rounds. I guess I would have had it 68-65.

I had Demarco up 2 rounds to 1 after 3, gave him the 1st and 3rd. But, then he threw it all away and Broner started opening up and dominated.

Demarco got sucked into an incredibly stupid macho inside fight with Broner and ate uppercut after uppercut.

Tough and courageous as all hell, but outsmarted and outclassed down the stretch.

Was doing good on the outside with straight left hands and some jabs, then goes inside with the shorter, faster fighter....

Don't get me wrong, I think Broner is a real talent and has potential to be something special but Demarco really offered anything in this fight and that is a CREDIT to Broner because he made this look easy and Antonio had no plan B.

I would like to see ricky burns take on boner, although would like to see burns have some a couple of real defences of his title first but by then maybe broner will have moved up again....

Broner could be something special.
Ignore his out of ring antics and look at the skillset he has in the ring.
He could have another 12 years of boxing in him.
And with HBO thats alot of money.

From what I know, Mayweather didn't have much of a fan base until relatively late in his career.

All he needs to do is keep winning and making his mouth go and hope nobody more skilful and mouthier comes out of nowhere.
