You're right. Both Abner Mares and Andre Ward have talk the talk and walk the walk and I give them much credit for it. However, since when has boxing becoming a popularity contest? It's not about popularity. It's about who can generate the most excitement and entertainment in a sport and that captivates the boxing public. if Broner wasn't a good fighter but a tomato, then no one will pay attention to a single word he has to say. The only reason he gets noticed because he's good and can fight and back up what he is saying. If not, then what he has to say would be totally irrelevant to boxing fans. Moreover, having a likeable personality doesn't guarantee selling tickets, filling up arenas and generating revenue but constantly winning bouts and having a crowd pleasing style does. Lastly, Adrien's reluctance in wanting to challenge Mayweather may have something to do with him sharing the same management team of Al Haymon and plus he is his role model and idol too.

Maidana gives broner hell win/lose,Mathysse stretches this clown out.Comment

First up they have to get Maidana in the ring. Matthysse should be out of the way after the Garcia fight. Then we can get Broner/Thurman if Guerrero doesn't beat his ass first.Comment

I understand all of that but he is not fighting Floyd Mayweather, Jr. anytime soon. So he should get his chance to prove his stuff against Adrien Broner much sooner than later. If Mayweather wins his bout against Saul Alvarez, then he will most likely challenge the winner of the IBF title elimination bout between Amir Khan and Devon Alexander for a unification bout to be tentatively scheduled for sometime in May of 2014; Especially if Amir Khan is the winner. However, If Lucas continues to be successful in the ring, then he should expect a Mayweather bout sometime as early in the late Summer of 2014.Comment

I really don't think that last sentence applies to Broner, the way he conducted himself during that Steve Farhood interview was far from mature. He has some skills, nobody can really dispute that, but he's pure trash as a human being. There is nothing likeable about his personality at all. I don't understand how anyone can find Broner cool, though I guess I just don't understand the young'ins.
Garcia on the other hand, he seems like a pretty likeable and level headed dude. I think a lot of people tend to associate him with his ridiculous father, which makes sense, but they are clearly very different people.Comment

Broner better watch maidana is much better now under his new trainer as far as mattysse I don't really think he wants any part of him dudes a beast both these guys are one like broner never faced.Comment

Once again, Broner and Garcia fans have the weirdest reasons to be fans of theirs. Someone said "Broner and Garcia are stacking their bread and I love them for that", hahahaha! That's some really weird feminine stuff. To idolize someone just cause they have more money then them is just sad.Comment

Broner just does it to do it. I doubt he's actually that ignorant. It's about portraying himself as an arrogant confident fighter. I love it when he acts like that because we need some more fighters with character rather than being fuccking robotic and boring. I love fighters who're willing to put themselves on the line and risk getting embarrassed only to prove themselves as a force. Guys like mayorga, prince naseem, mayweather, roy jones, are personalities I grew up loving.Comment

I do tho, young men getting money and putting themselves in great position to be stars. Nothing feminine about that I just really respect that about those guys. They get ****ted on for doing them. Atleast I'm not going around hating on grown men, and I don't idolize them for having more money it's the fact they're always looked down upon yet they grind and make do what it do. It inspires me to do the same when I get around that ageComment
