Comments Thread For: Malignaggi: I Hear Broner is Scared To Fight in New York

[leonthegee]

What do u mean nice try? It's not about ishe being from Michigan, its about everyone sayin u have to fight in the champs hometown. What kinda way of thinking is that? E****ally when the contender has more star potential and is ranked higher p4p.

NY is the most heavily taxed state in the US. I dont think it has anything to do with judges or being in Paulies hometown. I think it has everything to with money going in his pocket.

Name ONE single fight that Broner has had on PPV!! I can name two for Paulie. One was against Cotto and the other one was against Hatton (it was on PPV in the UK).
I know you will come up and say that he was fighting bigger names which is fine. You name only ONE fight that Broner has had on PPV.

Also the buffoons that keep talking about Broner being too small and that he just left 130Ibs don't know sheet (SP incorrect) about boxing.
Guerrero left the 130Ibs division and is doing pretty well at 147Ibs, and Floyd did the same thing when he left the 135Ibs division in 2005. He had two fights at 140 and move on to 147. So Malignaggi has no size advantage whatsover and Broner will pick him apart.

He was being sarcastic.

Ghost was older when be moved up and a lot if people were picking him to lose to aydin.

If its true, that's a very good possibility. Of course the haters would rather believe he's scared over common sense. hehe

I agree, he wasn't scared of Vazquez or Abril, he just pretended that he didn't know who they were.

It's easy pickings for paulie also unless he wants to fight other guys that he still might lose to for half the money

That's Paulie choice as the champion, A champ who went into his opponents backyard and country to get that belt. So if Paulie want to lose it whichever way then he has the right to.

Broner is a PPV star and doesn't hve to fight in anyone's backyard

Hahahahaha don't make me laugh bro.

Broner will fight in New York because it's the only way he will have a chance to beat the weakest of all the 147 lbs. beltholders. I think he will go through with the Paulie fight on Paulie's turf.

Broner needs to realize, this is not Burger King, he cannot always have it his way. Not unless or untill he beats the best 140/147 fighters.....then he can have women with Egyptian fans and his very own throne.

Bronner is a PPV Star? Dont you haave to atlease be on PPV to be considered a PPV star? Bronner is scared to come to new york because all that Frunting Bullsht would get Booed Crazy in NYC. That Fake Mayweather sht is Wack. NYC Dont like Frunting Katz like that. He is Gonna get BOOED Crazy.

Broner's gonna have to go out of his comfort zone.

This is a crap fight anyway I hope it falls apart and Broner has to fight Gamboa, Vasquez, Burns, Rios, Khan, Peterson etc.
Nobody is going to pay to watch him fight feather fist Paulie.
This is why I cancelled HBO, and Showtime the networks need to force fights we actually want to see.
