Comments Thread For: DeMarco: Broner is Not My Biggest, Most Important Fight

[Tmann400]

Slow down tmann, pdl was coming up and went back down since. And i havent seen broner crowd anyone yet and not allow someone to get their shots off.

You misinterpreted what I meant Walt. I don't mean crowding Andre Ward style, not at all. For example look at what Broner did to Escobedo who is a solid boxer, he walked him down and picked Escobedo's shots off coming in, and gradually broke him down. I expect Broner to present a similar game plan for Demarco, that's all.

Broner moves in a straight line and provides no defensive movement beyond his Floyd imitation. DeMarco will land punches on him and the fight will come down to a decision, excuses will be made on Broner's behalf from his team............he will perform another foolish theater act at the end of the fight too.

You're really not giving Broner enough credit for his defense mathed. I've seen so many people say Broner has a "wide stance" and he's "slow footed" including his opponents, yet when the bell rings, his opponents look absolutely lost. And while Broner hasn't beaten world champions yet, he's faced some solid guys, Perez is a good boxer, and Broner absolutely smashed him, Same thing with Escobedo (I know about the weight thing) and Litzau. I know Broner's attitude can be annoying, but people need to seriously look at the bigger picture here, how in the hell can you not see the skill, talent and ability there?

this guy is already living in the past. broner hasn't defeated anyone worth mentioning and he's already thinking he's achieved great things. what a fucking joke. demarco has won 4 of his last 5 bouts by KO/TKO. depending on broner's performance, his words might bite him in the ass

Absolutely true. It's easy for broner to look impressive when he's not fought anyone of quality.

There's lots of talent out there. I'd like to see broner beat someone decent before he muggs for the cameras.
