Lets all be honest with ourselves. Broner is a very flawed fighter, but Demarco, although tough, is not very good.
He doesn't throw nearly enough punches to expose Broner's weaknesses, he does't move enough to expose Broner's weaknesses.
He's a one punch at a time keep you at the end of his jab kind fighter. Hes not a pressure fighter, hes not a super big puncher, hes not a volume puncher of any kind.
In a one punch at a time type of fight, Demarco doesn't stand a chance against the much faster Broner, so unless he can hurt Broner, is chances are fairly limited.
Let just be honest with ourselves.
WAR DEMARCO!
like I SAID ALL YOU GUYS DONT KNOW CRAP ABOUT BOXING DEMARCO IS STRAIGHT UP GARBAGE. how any of you guys thought he had a chance is brain boggling.

he's not that good tbh. 135 just happens to be one of the worst divisions in the division, that's why he's on top.
Don't get me wrong, this will be a solid win for Broner and the best name on his resume. Demarco is the #1 guy in the division, so can't blame broner.
But I've never been impressed with demarco. He's slow, sloppy and not that powerful. I fully expect broner to beat him down tomorrow.
No way, Vazuqez is the top guy at the division he's never lost at 135
how predictable here goes the haters: fight demarco!!!!!!!!!!!!! broner you pu$$y
broner signs to fight him:demarco is gonna spark broner
day or the day before the fight:demarco isn't that good broner should've jumped 135 and went an fought rios.
WAR DEMARCO
Demarco is not that good dont see how is top light weight when you got vazquez and april in the mix. people want to make this sound like broner is beating the top guy but in reality demarco is a weak champ that sucks.
Why aren't people recognize the two top light weights Vazquez and April both of the guys beat demarco with one hand behind thier backs.
Ethier way if broner has trouble beating demarco then he is all hype
Abril is the unofficial #1 lightweight I agree, but Vazquez ain't shit. If Demarco sucks then Vazquez is total garbage.
hate when ppl say this... then say war demarco... its like of tho you are putting this in just incase broner wins in dominant fashion he wont get credit for it... both these guys are legit, give who ever wins his props... period
Exactly its almost like insurance if Tony wins they can say "well i was supporting him".Broner too be fair has been respectful in the lead up too this fight
So what you are trying to say is that Rios, went big name hunting by fighting Abril, and Alvarado? Funny. You got jokes.
Broner vs Rios would have made more money than both of those fights combined.
Broner was avoiding Rios because his people, and he himself know that he would have nightmares with Rios.
Lol, now we have dudes avoiding guys in other weight classes. Just like Rios is avoiding Tim Bradley and Canelo is avoiding Sergio. Gtfooh.
Rios moved up in the beginning of 2012 because he waa too big for 135. This is broners first fight at 135. Almost a year later.
And as far as big game hunting goes, perhaps you should listen to the boxing gossip wire. Have you not heard Rios being set up for a fight with a certain superfighter?
Stop it, with these sorry ass excuses. Broner is getting that chin checked, tomorrow. Broner, who went to war with bum ass Ponce, who got sparked out by JuanMa in one round, is gonna fight a real Mexican, tomorrow. Another Al Haymon hypejob gets stopped, tomorrow. Broner has a sorry ass resume and Demarco has fought solid competition. Demarco has been to hell and back, and Broner is gonna get taken there, tomorrow. Remember, all work is easy work for Demarco.
DeMarco is a good fighter. People need to stop sleeping. It's not like hes been fighting bums and looks bad. He's fighting some names that test him. Hell, stepping into the ring is a test. Never mind the guy across it being a whole different game.
DeMarco is sharp, resilient and has some power to him. Ontop of his he has height advantage (and reach too?) Southpaw that has things going for him. If Broner wins, credit goes to him for beating #1 dude in the division, taking the toughest challenge and rising to it.
Broner will meet his match though. Eventually someone is going to put it on him if DeMarco doesn't. Anyway, regardless of how it goes down. It should be a good one that puts either, if not both fighters, into a bigger spotlight.
He is a solid fighter. Anyone with two eyes can see that. "He's not that good Tbh" Shut the fuukk up. Where not talking P4P. He's a solid 135 fighter.
He's a tall rangy guy with decent power and a very solid chin.
I expect a competitive fight. If Broner does get the KO I will be impressed.
But I don't see it.
lets be real here for a second guys this is the best fighter broner has fought other than ponce de leon. litzau,perez,and escobedo were average boxers. Demarco is much better than those 3 and a big lightweight.
If I had a square ass, I'd s**t bricks. We can't play the IF game. What happened was DeMarco hurt Linares and stopped him.
exactly demarco destroyed his pretty face lol
What pressure?
I'm not saying it's smothering pressure, but his stamina and heart will keep him in it late, when he can pressure a possibly tired Broner. Broner seems much more comfortable coming forward then when he is pressed to the ropes where he needs to focus on his defense. I'm not saying I expect this at all, but I see it as a possiblity.
And so the excuses begin lol. ONCE AGAIN a fighter someone doesn't like will start racking up wins and people will come out of the woodworks to make excuses for every single win.
he's not that good tbh. 135 just happens to be one of the worst divisions in the division, that's why he's on top.

This is probably the worst Lightweight has been in 20 years (when Pea left) and it's not even that good at the moment. In that light, Broner is coming into, historically, one of the worst Lightweight divisions of all time. DeMarco is not 'crap' but hes's really not much more than a solid guy. He's the sort of guy a 23-year old talent should be able to beat on his way to more meaningful stuff.
This fight is all about Broner. If he's half up to his hype, this is a decided win.
Miguel Vasquez did nothing in his last fight to lay a claim to being #1.
I don't even know why boxrec has Vazquez even before DeMarco. I know it's a points system that they use, but the system makes them look stupid most of the time.
I think he is good fighter, but not close to P4P or elite. He throws too wide for my tastes and gets hit rather easily. But he has heart and can carry his power late into the fight. His pressure and southpaw style may make Broner think at times, but I just see Broner landing a lot of straight rights down the middle.
What pressure?
