    The fastback to welter obviously backfired but I'd rather watch that type of fight than a brash guy who talks the talk but runs in the ring. Floyd gets bood in almost every fight but it's kept his zero in tact.

    Congrats to Maidana. Long time coming and it was well deserved. Clear winner IMO
    It seemed to me that it was clear Broner was looking for a way out in the 8th round because the effect of the headbutt looked minimal, and his clinching was the reason for the headbutt in the first place (of course, the referee should have taken a point way for it regardless).

    Got hold of an HD copy and Broner got the dog shit beaten out of him. In the latter half of the eleventh and twelfth rounds he looked absolutely gone.

    There's no way there'll be an immediate rematch. Broner talked GBP into bumping him from 135 to 147 and all it got was his bubble burst. GBP will try a salvage operation and probably move him down to 140 or even 135 if he could make it.

    Broner will outwit them by clubbing, eating and drinking his way out of whatever promise his career still has.

    Agreed there was a bit of Andre dirrell in him but he got through that and finished strong. Having said that I think the cheap shot at the end of the 11th probably took abit out of maidana who wasn't that strong in the 12th
