if Broner is really fighting Judah on june 20 it will be the fourth soft touch in a row after his defeat vs Chino.

I have to say the Broner/Maidana fight was one of the most entertaining fights I have ever seen. It was so sweet seeing that punk Broner get his ass handed to him. Maidana put on a stellar performance that night.
This is professional prize fighting....Once there is a blueprint out on ya, people read it, or as the kids say today:"it is what it is." There have been some very promising fighters who went a lot farther than Bronner and just didn't win at a certain point, lets take Nando for example shall we?
Bronner has talent and so do many guys. Madianna showed Bronner's limitations end of story, I frankly can't understand why its so hard to fathom, its not like the writing was not on the wall... Bronner squeaked by his victories and depended on the judges thinking hard. Then he got pounded and then he squeaked again...by by Adrien you will be a great gatekeeper!
But ill tell ya what! If I ever see you get put to sleep and I have a pair of plyers handy...well lets just say my kids will be eating crab and shrimp for a week or so and the gold in your mouth may be lacking.
Broner was ruined the second he moved up to 147. He looked bad against Paulie, and was made Maidana's *****. The guy just can't hang at welter. Any decent welter would have similarly embarrassed him.
The word 'ruined' gets thrown around too lightly.
I don't think Broner is ruined at all, maybe people are just more tuned into his flaws now. If Chino comes back fat and gets beaten Broner could well take him in a rematch too. Haymon will be all over that shit if Maidana looks like he's done.
I do not like Broner personally but I truly believe hes a fighter and if it were up to him, hed fight the baddest MoFo's out there. Problem is he is not as good as he thinks & Haymon knows that. Thats why hes getting the soft $$$ touches. Its funny to see the look on Haymons face when Broner calls out the bad @$$es of the division, he's smiling but you know in his head he is like, stfu... lol! Boners still very young though and talented, he just needs to learn to be more of a counter puncher and not be so aggressive. When he countered Maidana he won rds. 140 I think was his max weight too, the shoulder roll is really only effective against guys with shorter arms and off the counter, at 147 the guys are to big and have longer reach than Broner.
Maybe ruined but more than likely simply exposed. Look at the four boxers he has fought since then, it screams overprotection. He has not looked great beating them either.
I don't know how much Haymon believes in Broner. He knows Broner ****s around too much when he doesn't have a fight scheduled.
He's a risky investment who can produce a lot of revenue. Hard to see him beating the other top fighters in any type of easy fashion.
I was actually going to make a thread "Where would Broner be if he had beaten Maidana?" This guy has basically wasted 2 years of his career(other than being paid good money) to fight people without even a chance of beating him.
