Broner still a hypejob?

This is boxing not college football and you are aloud to get better. Boxers usually improve the most their first three to four yrs. The PDL fight was what 2 yrs ago. So he had a couple bad outings, are you gonna hold that against him his entire carreer. Dudes 23 with 5 kids who knows what was in his head leading up to the fight. Thats fine people just need to stop acting like he's unbeatable he's talented but flawed fighter

If he can become the top dog at 140 then he'll have to be considered top 5 p4p. But that's still a long way off. Oh yeah, way off at this point. Like we said yesterday, I really wish he'd made more noise at 130. Instead of picking up a vacant title and doing nothing with it. It looks like he's taking his 135 run more seriously so hopefully it's top guy after top guy from now.

People hate fighters that always make it look easy. Borner is the truth.

Like every up and coming fighter, we'll find out when he's truley tested. My worry is, he's been tested by weaker opposition than I'd like. Everyone hits a stumbling block or two at the start of their career, when they are still learning. Some against lesser fighter than others. Broner has hit those already with Quintero and Ponce DeLeon. But, it seems like he's improving. I think the Broner in the ring last night is certainly better than the Broner who struggled with Ponce DeLeon. I see Broner as someone with a whole lot of potential and he's in the shadow of an ATG, whether he likes it or not, the standards are going to be set to the very highest for him. He's doing almost everything right so far though. I just want see how he deals with a real, top top fighter. If say, he cleans out 135, which I think is inevitable, then moves up to 140 and dominates Matthysee for example, then I'll know all I need to. If he can become the top dog at 140 then he'll have to be considered top 5 p4p. But that's still a long way off.

The kid is good, but demarco had some succes in there, and I sure wassent seeing anything close to a young Mayweater or young Roy jones. He fights kinda like mayweather but he lack the speed and pop in the right hand. But as have been proven many times before, you never really know have good a fighyter is until he faces someone that can match him. Froch may look like crap sometimes, but he has proven that against great fighters he shines, will broner also shine or is he the new zab judah or dirrel

I'm beginning to think perhaps I'm setting too high a standard for the kid. The fact that his style appears to be a blatant rip-off is a turnoff. But perhaps, subconsciously, I'm constantly comparing him to Floyd because of it. The truth is, Broner is a pretty good young champ with plenty of room for improvement. However, I'm not convinced he's the next big thing. I still see flaws that his opponents have been too weak or unskilled to take advantage of. And I doubt anyone will until he hits 140. Maybe he improves some more by then but I don't see him being dominant at that weight. Like every up and coming fighter, we'll find out when he's truley tested.

Broner is the truth. lb for lb #1 in 2 years. Mark my words.

I never really thought he was a hypejob. What I wasn't sure about is how serious he was about his craft. He jokes & clowns around so much it threw me off, but he made it clear that when the bell rings it's time to go to work. I also believe he has learned & improved since the Ponce fight.

How do you haters see him now? Is he still a hypejob in your eyes? Or have you changed your mind? He may well never be as good as Mayweather, i doubt many ever will but Broner is a special talent. You haters better recognise. Canelo will be next to shut you haters up. I never said he was a hype job but I am a hater. He is very talented but still a childish azhole

He's a good fighter. One thing that concerns me about the way he fights is how he keeps his mouth open a lot. Anyone else notice that? He's just asking for a broken jaw. It's been brought up. Broner likes to yell, "HA!" every time he throws a punch. I agree; he could pay for that annoying little habit some day.

People think he s hype job because he's gotten 2 gift decisions in his career already. Everyone knows he's talented but he's already shown that he is very beatable. good point but people do improve especially the young

Best eye hand coordination in boxing right now! Don't know why he's compared to Mayweather other than hand positioning this kid comes to fight!! Methodically broke that guy down and could have stopped him by the fourth round if he pressed him beginning in the second! Still want to see him take a few solid shots but for now he's an outstanding fighter! If the guy he fought is a top ten ranked boxer in the world that must be an extremely weak division the guy had minimal skills at best! Ray. yeah i agree all mayweather does is run forest run. this kid actually wants to bang

Might want to study up yourself there chief. http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/recognize rec·og·nize/ˈrekigˌnīz/ Verb: Identify (someone or something) from having encountered them before; know again: "I recognized her when her wig fell off". Identify from knowledge of appearance or character: "Pat is good at recognizing wildflowers". :dunce::dunce: Both work, i've always thought the correct British English way to spell it is 'recognise'. Either way, i really couldn't give a flying **** to be perfectly honest.

you should give him a chance he's an exciting fighter actually. he's aggressive and doesn't run like mayweather. Broner stood in the pocket last night against a come-forward fighter and literally handed him his ass.

That obviously proves hes not the brightest bulb in the room. 5 kids... at 23? Wanna bet none of them were planned?

The only thing I question is that he has been HUGE against every one of his opponents so far. I wonder what it'd be like if/when he moves up in weight and is fighting big guys That's true, but you can say that about other fighters. It's common for guys to fight at lower weights to take advantage of their natural size. Obviously, if Broner moved up far enough, he'd eventually get pummeled.

Why? I don't buy PPV fights? So, i'm not entirely sure how he'd make a fast buck out of me... I didn't watch last night's fight. In fact, i've never watched a full Broner fight; just a few clips on YouTube. Just because you're nut-hugging the guy, there's no need to force it on everyone here. you should give him a chance he's an exciting fighter actually. he's aggressive and doesn't run like mayweather.
