There is nothing commendable about retaining that fanbase as opposed to actually winning the respect of people who are just fans of the sport. He is an immensely talented athlete, is what gets overlooked a lot. He SHOULD be a lot better than he is, but he hasn't tweaked anything and it's getting to the point where he would have had to. I'm still watching his fights because he's entertainig in the ring, but I really thought he might be a special fighter a couple of years ago and it seems very unlikely now.
You're just saying that because you don't like the guy. Broner does have major talent. What he was doing was trying to be a mature professional with young man tendencies- partying, drinking, whoring around, goofing off with his new money.

He is typical of someone that grew up somewhat poor but then got money, but forgot what got him that money: hard work and being dedicated to what you do.

That loss to Maidana had to prove he had to re-dedicate himself to the sport. He wont change over night, but this is a slight improvement on his part- aside form being nutty enough to call Manny out as an "easy" fight. lolololol..... he may have early brain damage!!
