Sportsmanship (or sometimes sportspersonship) is an aspiration or ethos that a sport or activity will be enjoyed for its with proper consideration for fairness, ethics, respect, and a sense of fellowship with one's competitors.
Let make it clear I'm a fan of boxing threw and threw and to me Sportsmanship is paramount. Broner is the far superior, in every aspect compared to Escabado, no doubt. and in boxing where weight is an issue where is one guy has stripped himself down to weigh in at a legit weight for the fight and another guy doesn't, it goes from fan friendly late stoppage to a beat down one way shoot out.
IMO every boxing match counts because every match poses a test, and I think 3 lbs proved 2 things to me.
Adrian Broner lacks sportsmanship, for all his gifts at the age of 22, is bigger than boxing. smh.
And the second is that what he could have learned something going longer rounds with a dude who could have given him slight troubles will come back to haunt him. Everyone knows, every match is a test and gives one things to work on for the next challenge. I notice that Broner walks in straight lines and is very susceptible to the jab straight right hand to the body, the very same problem he had with Lucas Martin Matthysse. He might have learned something fighting a poor man's Matthysse. He's paid to be "SPECTACULAR" can he do the same in a close fight? Who knows? Broner will be around for while, will that be an undefeated career, we'll find out.
Thought? Am I full of ****?
