Comments Thread For: Merchant Discusses Broner, Mayweather Comparisons

[MrClutch85]

Why can't "the black man" be humble??? Is anything wrong with being a humble black man like Andre Ward, Tavoris Cloud, Tim, Sugar Shane??? And ok, if your not humble and safe and you act like Broner, why is it a problem if I say he acts like a fool??? Why is that considered being a hater??? I'm not knocking his Boxing skills or anything.

Ain't nothing wrong with being a humble black man like Ward but you might not turn into a big star playing that role in boxing

I want to see Broner beat some guys at 135. No tune ups either he called out some good fighters like Marquez, Rios. but both guys fight at 140 .I want to see some names like that on his resume first before they start comparing him to Mayweather. He does fight like him though but agains't weak fighters so far.I would like to see Broner fight some one like Gamboa at 135. If he can beat Gamboa. Well he's on his way of being a problem for any fighter in his way.

Cant forgrt DeMarco, DeMarco is better than Rios for shure.

REALLY? Andre Ward is pure Class and he still gets disrespect and people still talk **** about him

cut the BULL****! this is boxing, a lot of fans treat the black fighters like Villeins anyway so when they play up to the Villein Role like Mayweather and Broner and they can BACK IT UP (which really makes some people hate them even more)...people want them to be more HUMBLE

as mayweather is on his way out, the next floyd walks in. broner will be around for many years.

he moving up anyway smh u ppl still hate on the weight factor wen escobed already agree to the terms lmbao racist?? wtf are u even talking about

The real problem here is your unwillingness to accept the truth.
Had PAC or Alvarez done exactly what broner did you would be all over him talking trash and putting him down but since Broner is black an fits your agenda then you are ok with it and make up all these excuses for him. I like others hate his persona because its fake it's a front. That being said he is a talented fighter and exciting to watch.

I agree however I don't understand when we disagree with how they act posters like da problem say we are hating? Why would I hate a boxer regardless of the race acting like a fooken idiot? I dont agree with how he acts or carries himself and that is my opinion.

He'll be around until he fights a guy his own size with a solid jab....then we'll see Broner really act a fool when he is down on the cards.....how far will he go to secure a win?

did'nt take that long to have the next floyd mayweather .. now, finding the next pacman is the tough task...

Broner's fights are must see TV but the second he gets a microphone in his face, I'm hitting the mute button.

Agree completely. He is more arrogant than Floyd has ever been. He is an amazing boxer, with great skills but he needs to keep hos mouth shut and keep fighting!
I'm curious if over time if he turns like Hatton. Look at his Father! Damn!!!
