    Exactly this. People are crying way too much about Broner already.

      His obligation is to MAKE weight! After that he could come in 30 pounds over, thats the way it IS for everyone! Awfull lot of whinners out here, I don't care for the kids demeaner when he see's people watching!!! But he had a very quiet and sincere interview about wearing pink for Cancer Awareness and him watching his GrandMother pass away from Cancer!! He was honestly speaking and very calm and sobering!

      Many times what you see in interviews and prees releases is NOT the real character of the fighter. Most fighters I ever met and know personally are quiet unassuming people who shy from crowds and prefer to be with their families and not in a public setting! Ray.

        Well, the body stops growing at 25, so it's possible that he just couldn't make the weight anymore and said, "Fuck it, I'll weigh what I want". Reeks of arrogance, but that's why people have gravitated towards him so heavily. Some enjoy the trash-talking and brashness, and others can't stand it.

          Well of course he said that.

          He's a midget.

                He does seem to hit really, really hard. Damn near every fight he's been in turns his way around the 3rd or 4th because guys can't take his punches.

                  my main issue wasnt even the fact he didnt make weight.it was his response to not making that weight.he literally said ":somebody needs to fix this".guy is just clueless how to market himself.

                      Why are people so fixed about Rees height?
                      I thought the divisions were by weight not height?
                      A little midget named Mike Tyson used to KO HWs.
                      Recently a lil midget named Pacquiao was holding down WW.
                      Just admit that you're a hater and stop making up dumb excuses.
