    Broner won a few of the middle rounds, but Maidana put a beating on him overall. Broner has been humilitated and a good thing too as the wannabe Mayweather thug act was absurd. He was cheating today, delay reacted to the headbutt, tried to hump his opponent, and in turn got buzzed several times, knocked down twice, was in permanent complain mode and was looking to the ref who did his best to help him.

    Maidana gave no room for doubt. I don't think anyone will be able to keep a straight face with Broner again. His chin has been checked and he is easy to hit. The next banger will knock him out properly.

    Life and death with Paulie and now fucked up by Maidana. And lest we forget the PDL robbery. Broner has been given an easy ride and now it is time for him to either work his way back or just bugger off.

    As much as it was nice to see Broner lose, that was a great, competitive fight and he did come back strong in the championship rounds to his credit. Dare I say if that had gone 15 Broner probably would have gotten Maidana out of there. He's got a lot to work on but the upside is there, and he can beat some good fighters and be an interesting addition to whatever division he's going to compete in.

    Maidana was mainly hurt by the sucker punch though, that ruined his 12th. Broner is ballsy for sure though. I was more concerned in the 5th and 6th when he appeared to be getting some rhythm. Really, you have to wonder why Broner was fast tracked to WW. Not really worth it in the end.

    Yea could be, I watched it on a stream that got a bit choppy so couldn't tell how long after the bell that actually was. I was pretty annoyed by the constant raking with elbows and theatrics, but that's boxing and he wasn't getting warned much. Maidana was definitely wearing out and hurt in the 11th though, if Broner wasn't such a spoonfed asshole people would just be talking about what a good fight that was.

    I think so too. I don't think the sucker punch had anything to do with it. Maidana was completely spent by that time after throwing over double the punches Broner did.

    To Broner's credit, he's durable as fuck. He took a ton of brutal body punishment along with the concussive knockdowns, and he was still fresh and strong in the later rounds.

    Broner is a natural fighter, nobody can take that away from him.

    Then he gets put on his ass twice, wobbled numerous times, hurt, and IMO dominated by a guy who was supposed to be a stepping stone to big marquee fights.

    Then he shamelessly tries to milk a weak headbutt, making a fool of himself as he was looking for a way out.

    Then he loses his 0, and instead of sticking around he runs away, getting pelted by cups and other debris from the crowd.

    Completely humbled, completely stripped of his dignity all around.

    Agree completely with both these posts.

    He's just a lazy bum. He could have been great but tried to take short cuts to big paydays. Why jump from light to welter? Now need to skip divisions. Train properly and let body develop naturally and he would have been a lot stronger at welter in a few years

    This right here sums it up. Anyone who took the blinders off could see right through this kid. He was manufactured and was given a pass. Literally allowed to throw his finger up at the network who featured him and the fans who showed interest. He deserves exactly what he got.

    Spot on. The kid and he is one is a mental gimp and he bought into his own bullshit and was more worried about being in the spot light then actually applying his craft. He got a lesson.
    That's it.

    He's demanding an immediate rematch already which is a good sign.

    Yes, although I'm not sure I would give him one if I were Maidana. Maidana has a lot of options now.

    Ha! I could swear I saw a light bulb over his head right before he went down. "A WAY OUT!"
    no doubt!!! it was so fake looking too!!! lol. thank god that ref didnt play that shit....
    As far as acting goes, he would be a perfect fit on any world class soccer team.

    Was definitely an entertaining fight and had my full attention from beginning to end. I was anxious during the middle rounds too.
    Broner made a mistake going to WW, it's as simple as that, in my opinion.
