Malignaggi: Broner is immature, thinks being a bada$$ is the cool thing to do

yeah kids see people with that kind of attitude and adopt it as their own and turn into ****s lol. Before I didn't like Broner but now I kind of take him as he's kidding about everything (even though he's not) and its more entertaining.
But that still doesn't excuse robbing old ladies. But getting in a fight isn't that big of a deal, especially for someone with his attitude even if its an act.Comment

Getting into a fight isn't a big deal, posting pics of you're mug shot on twitter and thinking it's cool is.yeah kids see people with that kind of attitude and adopt it as their own and turn into ****s lol.

There's a difference.
I have a gym full of kids that idolize Flyd and Broner, believe me. They imitate everything they do, want to fight like them and talk like them. My gym is split between the kids that hate them and the kids that love them.Comment

This may be one of the few times where I disagree with you, Cua. I think he's ***********al outside the ring. However, I wouldn't say he's "everything that's wrong with boxing". He has formidable skills in offense and defense, and his ego and demeanor allow him to generate interest and notoriety. Boxing is a business and when I look at him, I see a future star--not because they tune in to see him win--but rather tune in to see if he'll lose. And in the end, he'll be successful.I never wanted someone to win more than Paulie in this fight. Broner is a piece of garbage. He's everything that is wrong with sports and boxing. Listening to him talk is an embarrassment.
Tweeting a pic of you're mug shot...really? What a loser, he's trying so hard.
Of course, none of it matters if Broner keeps landing on the wrong side of the law. I enjoy watching him fight and am always rooting for him but I understand why someone would despise him.
But I'll tell you something I highly agree with: if there was ever a time I'd love to root against Broner, it'd be against Paulie. I'm not a fan of Paulie, but the entertainment value would be priceless in the post fight interviews with Paulie letting out a machine gun rant as to why he won.
I still think Broner's going to beat Paulie, though.Comment

I see what you mean. Posting the picture was kind of glorifying it as if it was good lolGetting into a fight isn't a big deal, posting pics of you're mug shot on twitter and thinking it's cool is.
