    Broner will capture this next belt and make alot of money fighting and beating the throwaways at 140.

    Expect him to back at 147 early 2017.

    Beaten by great fighters? That is funny, neither Porter or Maidens are great.

    Put Broner in with Brooks, Thurman or Khan and he will beat by more greats.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    Its not arrogance that has me bashing him. That's just icing. The fact that hes young, undisciplined and unwilling to get better has me bashing him. He cant keep the weight off in between fights, he has speed and athleticism and still he insists on hiding behind that silly shoulder and waiting for someone to giftwrap a counter opportunity rather than moving his F'n feet. He has enough speed athleticism and reflexes to be more creative and avoid more punches in the ring, but like his idol, tries to get away with doing the bare minimum.

    *also the 2 losses dont include the people who think he lost to malignaggi.
    They want your @$$ beat because upsets make news. News brings about excitement, excitement brings about ratings. The objective is to bring you up to the tower and tear your @$$ down. And if you don't believe that, you're crazy.

    He doesn't want to be bothered with basics and fundamentals, and overrates his own speed, power, athleticism, etc. The press is probably as much to blame, since they're quick to anoint the "next great one", and can easily inflate the ego of someone with the fragile psyche of Broner.

    It's good it doesn't include the people that think he lost to Malignaggi because those people are dilusional. But a real good argument can be made that he lost to Ponce.

    As for him wasting his gifts, i agree entirely.

    Talking obvious bullshat and not being heard is the same thing I honestly never saw Broner good enough to get the "you just don't like him because he has a big mouth" pass. Its become its own punchline and came off empty act. You have to at least win one of your major showcase fights and back up the gimmick and hype..then you get the haters.
