    Broner's persona gets on my nerves. and I think it gets on a lot of people's nerves. His personality and "humor" are so forced that it just comes off super corny. But I do love watching him fight...

    ... Which I think is what annoys me the most. I'd love to be able to watch him fight without watching his wack, trying way too hard, ring facade and instead just be able to appreciate his talent as a boxer with less of the extra stuff.

There have been a trillion boxers so you are bound to have some similarites to some.

      You dont like it but youre a huge Floyd fan and he will be retired very soon. This is like you still get to see him some for another decade. Not only that but he's fortunate enough to fight like Floyd but do the things now that Floyd learned later because he is still watching him.

      Its like in some ways he has to learn on the job like everyone else but in other ways Floyd learned on the job for him so he can already advance past some of the troubles Floyd have. Ill be watching & also rooting. Then you hate him for admitting it. Why? I would be upset if he did it and didnt admit it but this way its like he's paying tribute
      No, picking SOME things up is one thing but completely copying a guy's style of fighting is just not cool. The dude is obsessed with Floyd and its quite disturbing.

        Broner fights nothing like floyd, he gets hit too much, and he will get hit a lot when he stops fighting these tomato cans, only legit fight he has is against Ponce Dleon, who moved up in weight for that fight, and it was a questionable win at that. Who else, Perez? pffft, inflated record just like Broner.

        Bottom line: Broner only poses like Floyd, but his name shouldn't even said as far as fighting comparisons go.

          How in the heck could you hate James Kirkland? I would love to hear the reasoning for that.


          AB is just rying to be like his idol Floyd Mayweather Jr. Think like Kobe to Jordan.

            I'm sure it has a lot to do with the money Floyd makes.

              You probably would have said Ray Leonard was trying to be Ali with the dancing and the tassels.

                      I'm still not sold 100% on Broner, but I don't dislike him. I just want to wait and see before I'm convinced.
