Adrian Broner will never be the same, if he comes back AT ALL

[brocktonblockbust]

It's probably better to take a hard shot and not get up from it than to carry on getting clubbed for 12 rounds. The Maidana fight was a war and Broner took most of the damage. My take on Broner is that he is very strange and had no real need to jump 2 weight classes and stay there. The Malignaggi fight alone should have told him to feel his way into the division first or maybe take a hint from the fact that Malignaggi found him so easy to hit.

Broner reminds me far more of Andre Berto than Floyd Mayweather and that isn't a sign of greatness.

nor did Frazier need brain surgery, and he was shot to hell after Foreman.

Miles is right on--Broner is a mentalmidget dying to copy he Mayweather. Only he is no Mayweather. He is a posing, posturing clown who has zero talent. Nor wil he be back in the ring. Adran Bone-Head will never again be back in th ring, OR he will be a washed-out version

If he never is the same, or gets his ass beaten again- good for that cocky mf.

After Frazier Foreman 1, Frazier went on to KO Jerry Quarry and Jimmy Ellis. Not to mention 2 of the greatest fights of all time with Ali. He wasn't washed up in any of those fights.


By the time he fought Foreman again he was 32 years old and for fighters with Fraziers style that's considered old.


I cant sit here and say the Maidana loss will or will not negatively effect Broners career. There has been many fighters who have received good beatings and not been the same.


I can say he showed a true fighters spirit while recievng the beating. He got up, kept fighting and had winning on his mind the whole time. He didn't seem to break imo.


And Broner didn't get beat up that bad. Sure he got beat on but it wasn't horrible. (I will go back and watch again)


I do agree that he tries to fight like Floyd to much. He doesn't just use the philly, he tries to use just like Floyd.

[Beanflicker]

He needs to change his style up. Standing still and letting guys tee off on him is a recipe for mediocrity.

Broner took an ass whooping, whether or not this going to mark a downward spiral for him or he's going to learn from it remains to be seen.

Personally he doesn't seem like he has the maturity and/or intelligence to learn from it.

[Kirkland Laing]

Broner really did take a beating in that fight and there's no way of knowing how much it took out of him until he's back in the ring. He's not helping himself with his lifestyle outside the ring either. He's not going to be a TV attraction very much longer.

[Master]

He showed heart and courage but that was not that bad a beating.

[Bo-Bo24]

It will definately be hard for him to come back, but I think he showed a lot of guts to get up from the knock downs in that fight. His team should of moved him back down after the Paulie fight really, he needed more time to hone his craft before he became a big name, let alone another Mayweather.

[La Cucaracha]

I think Broner will come back better I hope the loss improves him and he becomes a 'Problem' again

I agree with you, Sir. If he stands in front of Maidana, trying to dodge big shots again, he'll get knocked in his ass, again.
He has to use the jab more, throw a hell of a lot more punches and move, move, move.

I think Broner can come back as long as he has the right opponent for his next fight. He needs to drop to 140 and maybe fight Peterson or Judah. Just take a winnable fight against a name. Getting knocked down by Maidana doesn't mean you have a bad chin but I'd steer clear of anyone with top class KO power for a couple of fights.

Agreed, but he is determined to rematch Maidana, or so he says. With Floyd taking his fight (rematch) away from him, I really don't know what's going on.

[brocktonblockbust]

he will never be the same his innards are scrambled to shit man, listen to these shots from the highlight reel: listen and tell me if this abuse will end a fighter's career:

[Kirkland Laing]

Now he's not fighting Maidana he'll move down to 140 and they'll put him in against somebody he can beat on the undercard. Peterson and Judah sound like good guesses. Maybe Judah.

[imp]

Broner will be back stronger.
The money he will be making will make him a much better fighter.
He should really fight at 140.
