I don't know why he's calling out WW's while he's still at LW to be honest.
But in his defense, he just fought the #1 LW and tried to fight Ricky Burns.
But his stay at 130 was one big cherry pick so it's a bit of both.
This is true BUT can you really hold that against him if he's looking to clean out the division and leave nothing behind?
Right now everyone thinks he should move up however I have a feeling down the road people will say he ducked out when the division got hot. IMO he should fight Burns in May on the May Guerrero undercard. Once he does that, move up to 140 come September on the Mayweather Alvarez undercard.
Broner is popular, he talks about Marquez, Guerrero, Pacquiao. But fight against Rees. Who is Rees???
he just outclassed the best fighter in the division in his first fight at the weight, then he went after the number 2 fighter at the weight who wanted no part of him. so he settled for a former world champion ranked #6 by the ring at 135 lbs.
ppl need to cut broner some slack, everyone has fights against less than stellar opposition now and then. taking that into consideration rees isnt nearly as bad an opponent as ppl make him out to be.
he tried to fight burns but he decided to fight vasquez instead taking the two best fights for broner on the shelf for now. if you look at the rest of the division (abril being occupied too) rees is about as good as it gets.
At 23 years old and jumping into the 135 Division and taking on the #1 Guy...He don't get labeled that because he is not one...Yet At Least!
Only reason why we are stuck with this Gavin Rees fight is because Ricky Burns is afraid of Broner, even if he was to some how defeat Vazquez I have a feeling he will find another way out of fight Broner AGAIN and hold out to that WBO and IBF Title as long as he can
So it is way too early to label Broner a "CHERRY PICKER" when he doesn't really have any good Cherry's to Pick From in his Division is not that great
You want to label someone a Cherry Pick...How about Canelo, entire 154 Division want to fight the guy but he has been fighting Smaller Guys instead....NOT THAT IS CHERRY PICKING!
Preach!!!!!!!!!!

he just beat the brakes off DeMarco
he's entitled to a soft touch while he waits for a bigger fight
Burns and Vazquez are fighting, Broner can face the winner after Rees
if he takes another soft fight instead, then criticize him
Gotta agree with this. He is catching a lot of crap because people are drawing comparison's to FMJ, and in the context of this forum it makes sense because the bumsniffing floydiots have kind of adopted him......but he ISNT Floyd. FLoyd has done what he has done with his career and thats on him and its why he doesnt have any neutral support, just a bunch of dribbling, and almost unfailingly racist 'superfans'.
Broner is starting to realise his potential and the DeMarco win was brilliant given the stage he is at.
Sometimes fan logic really leaves you shaking your head...its like people(again, floydiots pushing their agenda) crediting other fighters than JMM for his win over MP. Floyd has been given that by proxy and even Tim Bradley has managed to increase his margin of 'victory' since manny planked. Arseholes!!!!
Let the kid grow, judge him on his deeds and not other fighters completely unrelated to him. As of now he has done remarkably well, lets hope he keeps it up and lets keep our minds open.

This. People are criticizing him professionally because they don't like his personality. Same old bull****. Are we forgetting he offered to step in and fight Burns and they said they needed more time?
Cherry pickers don't chase down the best guys in the division. People on NSB are mad because Broner dominates fighters that they love easily.

I like Broner, but I think that Rees isn't a decent fight. at LW have same decent fighters like Miguel Vazquez (in my opinion is much beter than De Marco), Burns. I dont know if Burns duck Broner, but in 130 he doesn't fight against Uchiyama, Burgos, Roman Martinez. But beyond that, what I mean is that he callout great fighters and fights against Rees. true he is young, but these same things Canelo is criticized that I do not mind that the champions have to fight the best, and if you call to fight the best do not fight against Rees.
If he is fighting regualrly, then he will get these fights. He must stay busy though or he will lose credibility and momentum..a la Floyd.

Yeah, I can't stand the punk. You can tell that he is going to grab and run, meaning he has no intention of moving up and fighting in 140 or 147. He wants to grab some easy paydays and retire undefeated where he is at.
He is already talking about how he has enough money to support his family and he doesn't plan on staying around for too long in boxing. Posters here think he will rule all the way up to 154, I think he will retire after his first loss or get out in a year or so.
That was influenced by Floyd in their meeting. Broner stopped calling out the big boys after that meeting, if you have noticed. I like the guy because of his performance in the ring, but he's beginning to get infected by Floyd's ducking behavior.
Yeah, its funny how much some of these guys are more into a fighters personality than the skills the fighter has. What kind of boxing fan pays more attention to that? lol smh
Word. Bunch of TMZ ass dudes on this site.
Broner is starting his career. Why call him cherry picker when he dont make the calls in his career right now. Where is the damn common sense around here.
Are people even boxing fans anymore? Pretty much everyone on any forum just whines and cries about everything.

IMO it's too early to call him that. Plus he's starting to step up his competition. Demarco was certainly no push over. And he also tried to make the fight with Burns. I think he is where he should be competition wise. Very talented but not a fan of the act or attitude.
Don't let his mouth fool you, he has a manager and promoter along with a team of people who controls everything that he does, and looking at his career rather than listening to what comes out of their mouths you would know by yourself that he is still learning the game and not an elite fighter yet and yes disregard his P4P ranking not sure why he is on that list.
