    I never understood why everyone compared Broner's style to Floyd's cuz really, they have only very things in common..

    Broner tries hard to imitate Floyd's persona but in the ring, the counter right hand and the way he poses with his shoulder are the only resemblance. OH yea, and they both throw one punch at a time..

    At the end of the day, he'll never be like FLoyd because he's not nearly as good defensively.. ONe of Floyd's biggest assets and the reason he's so great is because his defense is nearly impenetrable and Broner doesn't have that. He gets hit too much because he stays in the pocket instead of using his legs like floyd.

    In broner's defense, I can say that he's more exciting than Floyd and will be in some cracking fights but as far as them being similiar, they are not..

    Not to mention floyd was much more active in the ring at that stage of his career, he didnt stand and throw one punch like he does now, he moved and threw combos

    Adrian has talent unquestionably. His over confidence can be an asset but when that confidence blinds you to your own weaknesses such as defense and not using enough angles and footwork while on offense then the results are going to be just what we witnessed when Adrian got beat up by Marcos Maidanna. Adrian has heart just needs to be smart, confidence needs to be earned not just assumed.

    I really don't have a thing against the way Broner fights, he can imitate anyone he wants. As long as he keeps winning everything is good.
    I don't like the disrespect he shows toward other fighters, boxing and the fans.
    The thing that bothers me the most is that it's unnecessary. He could get all the attention he wants by fighting and winning.
    I wonder what he really thinks about all the people who were gleefully happy about the fact that he lost. I wonder if he realizes or cares that it was mostly his own behavior that caused most of it.
