And I'll say this again that the things people are fixating on here are minor compared to what others have done. People who dislike Broner and have since before these acts came to light are simply going to like him less and make this molehill into a mountain. Ike is a scumbag. Monzon is a scum bag. Valero ditto and Ayala. Broner is a juvenile delinquent in a 20 something body.
Now I will politely back out of this thread hands at my side.
@IamInuit like I said that's NOT what my response was in regards to...
imp said it was an act to sell tickets and I said you don't need an act and listed those names.

I agree Ike, Valero and Ayala are all scum but we're not talking about those things.

We are talking about putting on an act to sell tickets. That's what imp & I were talking about.
I understand that @CutMeMick.But these kinds of threads morph and it seems pretty clear to me that the kid is being crucified for things similar to that which we have all done in some form or another. I have never had it alleged that I gave face to a stripper at a strip club but I hired a hooker in Acapulco. I have never literally flushed cash down a physical toilet but I have flushed thousands of dollars down all kinds of other toilets over the course of my life. Broner probably had a pail underneath a p-trap collecting the money. Had my share of bar fights over the years. Broners was minor.

I agree with Imp. His negative publicity will amount to more ticket sales just as it has in the past. History repeating itself. Floyd sitting at ringside at the Manfredy fight with Chico telling his wife to leave the abuser and then being charged himself for the first time shortly thereafter. I don't condone this stuff but these guys are not the top of the moral food chain. They are not role models and its borderline naive to expect such at this level.

Cheers.
