    Broner is getting slammed for fighting weak comp....that's all Alvarez ever does...

    That's what he has to do with this.

        canelo's comp is pretty even with broners, and jr has faced better comp than both honestly alto thats no excuse. hes older and hes been doing it longer.

        broners comp is not at all bad considering his age and how long hes doing it. it doesnt speak well for his belt tho, but compared to other young fighters out there his record is one of the best so your remarks a re abit off.

          Ponce de Leon exposed him. Broner is a good but not great fighter. Nor will he ever be.

            HBO, new sports boss, same terrible deisions it seems. Why did they guarantee Broener a spot with no opponent named? Absolutely horrific decision! Hopefully they learn from this(probably won't).
            Also its my understanding that Broener is to headline a BAD this summer, and they targeting it to be against one of the top 130lb guys?

              ponce exposed him as??? seriously im tired of hearing this. did u ppl watch the fight? ponce didnt look that good in the fight either. he won because he was more active, but broner clearly landed the better shots. not to mention broner has gotten better since then. that fight does not say as much as u ppl like to claim.

                Ponce, Litzau, and Perez were all good/decent fights. The only decent fight Canelo has done was Ryan Rhodes so far.

                    It's just a tuneup/stay busy fight. Everyone around Broner has said this. Although, I guess it could have been someone a little better.

                      hes also fought miguel vasquez, but those fights are disputed in their results.
