Broner is a talent , but he put the P into Prick Rees took his beating, his interview after the fight
the guy is a nob, probable we are seeing a great fighter, humble is a word Broner will never use.

Until little boner starts fighting pugs like Danny Garcia, Brandon Rios, and Lucas Matthysse, I have zero interest in watching one of his fights.

There's one certainty about a Broner-Rios fight:
An asshole is going to get his ass kicked.

[tysonesque]

There's no doubt that Broner is very talented and the fight last night went exactly as I expected, but the guy has no class at all.

It's OK to be cocky or a little arrogant, as long as it is slightly amusing and tongue in cheek, but Broner just comes across as someone trying to be something he's not. He's trying to be funny and fails miserably. Everything he says just makes me think he's a try hard and a total dickhead with no respect for his opponents.

I Look forward to the day someone knocks his head off.

I gotta be honest... He got hit way too much for my liking. Having said that I think he will enjoy himself at 135.

On the rewatch. I don't know if he even realizes that if Rees had serious pop how he could have been 'Nate Campbell'd' with that sucker left hook. He better find a backfoot, quick.

Forgot he apologizd afterwards. Wow.

I agree.

If Rees had any power Broner could have been put on his arse.

Having said that, he probably felt the weight of a couple of punches early on and decided he could afford to take shots to land his own. I can't imagine him being quite so sloppy against a big puncher.

To me it felt like Broner only fought in short bursts and carried Rees. Every single time Broner put punches together Rees looked totally outclassed and Broner could have ended the fight at any time he wanted.

The thing is with Broner, at this moment in time, he is a cheap copy of Mayweather one thing he
does not have Floyd s defensive skills. Rees hit him far to many times, regardless Broner could
take his punches. Out there there is some one that's going to put Broner, in his place when it
happens a lot of people will be cheering from the rafters.
Must say he is a fine boxer, but he needs to be a bit humble cut out the BS , that's why I like
Burns he's a class act, there's a saying Mr Broner you can't polish a turd.

I'm glad to see you decided to watch the fight....Hard resist hoping to see Broner will finally get shut up isn't it ? His lil villain Floyd gimmick works.

Thats mostly why I watch him, and he is a very good talent.

Anyway, you guys were hard on Bika, he looked improved, just not drastically. Gotta love that crazy, ugly, tough bastard. Always brings it.

Rees fought bravely and showed how easy Broner can be to hit. He particularly highlighted how easy it is to land the left hook to the body on Broner, and there are better, harder punching Mexican fighters out there like Brandon Rios who are chomping at the bit to land that hook to the body on hair brush boy.

I say bring on Rios or Amir Khan in the near future. Either would be a very intriguing match up. Or Matthysse, who could get out slicked all night then land one and end it brutally.
