Looking back on it if Broner would've stayed on the ground when Maidana Headbutted him in the jaw in that 8th round he probably would've got the DQ or worse come to worse lose by a controversial score card decision but set up for a highly anticipated rematch. Do you think his career could possibly be different if he did that?

And anyway, I don't think there's any way it would've worked. If I recall correctly Broner was already trying to really sell it and exaggerate it, and the ref (I forget who it was that night) basically told him to STFU. He gave him his time to recover, and that was all he was going to give him.

boxing is all about machismo and pride. no way a guy like broner, with that ''can get it'' ego is gonna stay down and act. people like past it bowe and exposed tyson were in desperation mode.
