It's like I said when the fight was first announced; as long as he moves back down I have no problem with him fighting someone bigger than him that is 2 weight classes north. It's not like Pauli is going to be drained, at some disadvantage or half dead from making a weight he hasn't made in nearly a decade.
The fight is not going to be as easy as people are making it out to be. Pauli can box. He has speed and is just over all bigger than Broner. These are all feats Broner hasn't had to deal with all at once. To top it off Broner isn't even trying to get weight advantages like other fighters did when moving up to WW to fight for their first WW title.
I'm actually looking forward to the fight and Broner shouldn't be looked at as some legend for taking the fight but he surely shouldn't be bashed especially if he moves back down and ends up fighting the 140 guys anyway. If he does, will people then say he's cherry picking "smaller" fighters?
By no means do I think this is an easy fight for Broner, Broner however, thinks this is an easy fight for Broner.
I just don't see the point of him jumping up two weight classes, then coming back down. It's just illogical to me. Why he wouldn't try to get in on the winner of Garcia Judah, Peterson Matthysse etc is beyond me.
I would love it if Paulie takes his 0
I want to like him but I cant. The way he talks about beating Pac and the way he ask for respect for that fight is not going to help him.
But profesor,
I can see how he was awarded the Pac fight, the swing rounds, Lampley calling punches for Pac that he didn't even land, Kellerman's disrespectful and accusatory post fight interview. HBO perpetuated the robbery thing more than Pacquiao did.
lol at smith acting tough after crying on a baby for 20 minutes.
I can understand why though. It was a big deal for him. Let him cry.
Is all this talking to make up for the terrible borefest they put on that night?
Amen and stuff.
Nice to see you back Ms. Bossy! <3
Graciasssss :)
Piss off Bossy.
Excuse you mister :slap:
I don't think even K9 thinks he won that fight. He needs to move on.
Agreed. It's becoming quite sad. It's like they saw the publicity they got from the Floyd v his wife thing and are trying to do anything to stay relevant.
He sounds mentally disturbed. If he has any sort of team behind him they'll get him looked after before this escalates into something far worse than eccentric Facebook statuses.
I was pulling for Marquez, I really wanted to see him win. I felt he didn't get the decision he deserved in their previous fights. I had been winding up some Pac fans on Twitter earlier that day saying JMM was going to win by brutal KO.
But when it actually happened, my jaw hit the floor. It was sad to see him laying there. He is pillar of strength and speed, to see him flat out like that was scary. It took me at least 15 minutes to process what I had just seen. I couldn't believe it.
With that said, I was thrilled for Marquez, he got the definitive ending to a series of fights that seemed to be weighing him down. There was no doubt in who the clear winner of that fight was. It was historic.
Great thread, I totally agree. Even if you don't care to much for him, he put it all on the line for the fans, for us. I already sent him an email telling him how much we appreciate what he tried to prove and that he needs to do him, do what got him to where he is at now, not what the media says he should do. I also want him to hook me up with some Team Desert Storm gear; figured I'd just go directly to the source and get the good stuff, the gear he actually wears.
I think I may know were to get his stuff, let me look into it and I will get back to you if I find anything.
Why should he move down? If they want him come to 147 and get him.....I'd consider them not coming up as more of a duck as him skipping 140 (they want him at a weight class they been in most of their careers, except Rios). Now if these dudes come to 147 and Broner doesn't fight them that's another story.
Didn't Duran skip 140?
Soooooooooo an ENTIRE w/c has to move up cause Broner says so or they're all 'avoiding' him? :lol1:
Tell me moar stories, this time add unicorns and kittens, I like those things.
Brb getting my blankie and some popcorn.
I hated dude for the longest after he beat Devon Alexander but after seeing how pissed off he made Pacquiao stans and the country and with the heart he showed last night im a fan of that dude.
:lol1: This made me laugh.
There is nothing to hate about that fight, Or fighters! not if your a true boxing fan that is..
That fight will keep me going until next weekend, where Abraham card is looking good ;)
I agree with you completely.
A lot of people are mad because they called Bradley a coward for "running" vs Pac and then called him retarded for standing toe to toe vs Provodnikov. They're confused so they just hate.
As for Broner, he can fight midgets and people throw sand in their own vaginas. However when he says he's jumping 2 weight classes to fight someone bigger, not only do they throw sand in their own vagina, they stick a damn fist size dildo up their ass and then cry to everyone else about how it hurts and don’t understand why. They're just confused, so they hate.
To be honest, it’s sad but I don’t feel bad for them. They just need tampons. However double up on them whenever Broner, Bradley or Mayweather are mentioned. I swear they bleed when they even think about them fighters. I think it’s why they get so hostile and quite frankly, b*tchy. It’s that pac man syndrome aka PMS.
Give it a few days. They will be ok.
Yeah, but the reason Broner is getting sh1t for the Paulie fight is because he is avoiding an entire weightclass of fighters who would test his abilities. Not only test, but give him the hardest fights of his career thus far. And there is just so many possibilities at 140 for him, especially being a GBP fighter.
Instead, he ops for a fight with Paulie, who is in the later stages of his career and often referred to as feather fisted. Why not take the fights that will challenge him? I hope Paulie wins all day. Not only because I love Paulie, but because it will serve him right for thinking he could get a payday and easy fight instead of making the natural and logical move to 140.
The Broner comparison doesn't work at all, as Broner gets far more criticism than Tim does.
Tim is getting criticised because that is what happens after every fight on NSB if a fighter doesn't look flawless when he is supposed to. Why people would rather be hyper-critical (see FeFist's "Bradley deserves to be criticised" thread) than just appreciate the frankly great fight we got last night, I have no idea. It's not like Bradley walks around proclaiming his greatness (like Broner).
No wonder fighters fall out of love with the sport.
But my mention of Broner was more about fans than him tbqh.
I see more people defending Broner's legging choices and dancing than respecting Bradley's fighting abilities. To me that's just retarded.
I find it ludicrous that anyone wouldn't have a huge level of respect for Bradley after last night.You don't have to like a guy in order to tip your hat off to him after demonstrating such a ridiculous level of Saad/Chacon-like courage.That sh^t is to be applauded, not denigrated.
Yes, yes, fuking yes! :hail:
It is mostly from Pacquiao fans...sure you will get a few of them come and say "NOT ME I DON'T HATE BRADLEY" but lets be honest majority of the hate is coming from Scorned Pacquiao Fans who are still bitter over the Decision Bradley got over Pacquiao
It is nothing he can do to win those fans over so he shouldn't even be trying to do so, he went out and took unnecessary punishment and for what? So come the next day fans still complain and hate him more and say he got his a$$ kicked and to say he has no defense and he has a weak chin?
It wasn't worth it! You just have to tell those fans to go fuk themselves and just go out and continue to fight your style and your way and who ever don't like it they don't have to watch
They want to see you change your style and get away from what you do best because they want to see you lose! He was talking all week about Bernard Hopkins and all that sh1t but then come fight night he got suckered into a brawl with a brawler trying to impress fans that don't give a sh1t about him
BUT that fight may have gotten him another Big Pay Day with probably JMM so it may end up being worth it despite the negativity from some Bitter Fans
Boxers need to stay away form the Online Stuff, don't read any of that stuff because if you do it can effect the way you fight as seen with Bradley
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
A-frigging-men. Preach!!!!!!!!!!!!!
What about if Broner moves down to 140 after his fight with Malignaggi?
I think that's an inevitable move for him.
What's the point though?
Why move up just to move right back down?
So if he beats Paulie he's gonna do what with the title? Never defend it? I don't see him fighting at two weight classes at the same time. He doesn't have the discipline.
And before Broner's bfs come in here and rape my thread with 'you lyin doe' he has willfully disrespected his opponent in the past in terms of weight. Twinkies and chesseburgers don't lie. There is no way he is going to actively maintain two separate wc.
He's not Floyd. Period.
You lost any credibility when you said Bradley/Pac was close,it wasn't
Bradley is a headbutting little rat,he ducked khan like the plague,got beaten up by pac and acted like he won,now he goes life and death with an average provodnikov
Fuck Desert Breeze
Hi you :lol1: Long time no speak.
It was close though, there were too many swing round in that fight.
I'm a Khan fan, I'm not a Bradley fan, but I am a boxing fan. I can respect the man's hustle without sucking him off.
There wasn't anything average about their fight tbh. It was a great fight and Bradley went outside of himself and fought a fan friendly fight. Yet here we are and he's still getting shat on for it.
I think he just wants to grab Paulies title while he still has it. GBP know he won't keep it long and I presume it's in their plans.
I'm guessing he wants to do something like go up 2 weight classes, win the title, move back down and win a title. Some sort of milestone like that.
I don't believe he intends to stay at 147. Return there? Yes. But not stay there for now.
I believe he'll go down to 140 and stay there for a while then return to 147.
Time will tell.
I just think he is a ball of chaos. He needs to get a game plan in place for his career, it's like his music; all over the damn place.
Adrien needs focus, less sh1t tlking, band camp singing, seizure like dancing and to focus on his choosen profession; boxing.
I am not a fan of this fight, of course I am gonna watch it, I am going to scream my face off for Paulie, but not a fan of it.
I would have rather seen Paulie Maidana than this.
Throw shots at Broner, but none at canelo?? Hmmmm.........
Because Canelo is a on tight leash. Oscar's fist is so far up his ginger ass he doesn't have the ability to speak like Broner. Simples.
You know how you know Bradley is black? He likes to rob people.
Stupid comment.
I take it you're a Pac fan, so why don't you digest the JMM fights and keep this stuff to yourself.
Im NOT a Bradley fan. AT ALL. But after last night i can do nothing but give him mad ass props and someone would have to be a idiot to hate on this dude for his fight last night. (Pac fight..different story)
Bradley showed mad heart and will. So did Prov. Both fighters. I was super impressed with Bradleys will and determination. Win or lose id still feel the same way. And Prov...He made me a fan. Im really digging this guy. Want to see more of him ASAP!
I'm not a fan of either tbh but I respect the hell out of their fight. I respect Tim too. I wouldn't say I will seek out every fight and be a super fan, but it's hard not to acknowledge his abilities.
Great post. A lot of these guys aren't as into the boxing side of the sport as they like to think. Unless a guy's providing the reality TV element with funny clothes, and tacky jewellery, and mcdonalds head gear and the like they just can't get into it.
+1
That's what I'm saying. Then they get all ass hurt when someone points out their hero's mental retardation.
It makes ZERO sense to me.
Tim slugged it out with this silly-face-pulling goon to make himself more marketable for a big fight and these bozos still aren't happy with what they got.
basically, the dudes trying to tear him down over this fight are as follows:
- Khanite nobheads who've been preying on Timmy's downfall for two years
- high-level and low-level fudge-Paquers who joined the hunt after TB got that decision last June
- and then the random guys who just dickride and nobslob on every obscure Eastern Bloc underdog puncher who comes down the pike (look at all the zany hype Pirog got and that Golovkin now gets)
- people of Eastern-Euro descent who badly want their guy to have been awarded a win (or at least a draw)
I think there are too many fans of opposed to fans of actual boxing. If they were fans of the sport in it's entirety they would respect his talent.
Same way I respect Floyd's even though he's c0ckhead.
You have a few isolated incidents of *****es on this site that will hate Bradley no matter what he does.
But for the most part Bradley earned a lot of people's respect last night.
You wouldn't think so by reading NSB. There are some backwards ass fools on here.
After the Pacquaio fight many want to see Bradley lose.
Last night was one of the most exicting fights we've seen in a while and Bradley's display of heart was unbelievable.
If you're still going to dislike him after that then there's nothing he can do to win over some fans.
It's funny because it seems like the same type of fans who get their tampons in a twist over people talking about Broner and Floyd's personal life detest Tim because he has 'no personality', it's easy to root against him.
The man gave his all in that fight, what the hell else could any fan ask for.
:rofl: agree with everything other then the Pacquaio fight being close. I had Bradley winning 3 rounds.
I gave up scoring that fight, I just can't come to a consensus with myself.
I agree.
I don't really like the fight. I think it's decent. But that's Broner's problem, that's the story of his career. "Decent".
His 130 run was utterly awful. Why didn't he go to Japan to fight Uchiyama? Why didn't he fight Salgado?
135, decent. Beat DeMarco and Rees.
Now he's fighting Pauli, decent.
I want to see Broner do something better than decent.
If I could send green I would. Great post, sir.
Yeah, that'd be cool. I checked out the stuff on his site it's pretty limited tbh.
I'll let you know as soon as I find out.
Seems I've made an impression on you. Still recovering from the ass whooping I gave you last night? lmao
I want to see if this is even true or hear the story before passing judgment.
You certainly did :flirt:
I was just curious how long it would take you to come in here and slurp and burp on his knob, SWEETHEART :love:
No, I just think you're infatuated with me now after I handled you like a real man. lol I'm sure these ass kissing dudes get old after a while.
:lol1:
We can add delusional to your resume, well done you!
But seriously,
He young doe?
lol what do you want him to do? start screaming out **** the police?
Honestly, I think the best thing for him at the minute is to be quiet. Do nothing, say nothing.
Keep his nose clean and retarded idioms to himself. Because what is the point of him releasing an apology when he is going to be tweeting like a jackass in 2-3 days?
He just needs to chill.
