No way in hell would you believe Floyd was gonna end up the best fighter of his era and one of the greatest defensive fighters in history with the way he was repeatedly tagged by Augustus. Guys have unexpectedly tough fights all the time. Hell, Floyd was a lineal champ when that fight happen. Broner fought Ponce as an untested prospect.
    After that fight pbf has been nearly perfect broner has so much flaws and keeps getting hit so much against small and old opposition. Ponce de leon was there to make broner looked good he was considered damage goods after juanma put jim to sleep. It wasn't like pdl was on top of his career that day.

    Same with malignagi broner was supposed to look good but he didn't. I guess he only looks like a beast when he fights the eloy perez, rees, escobedo and cheats him in weight right?

        Lol if you really believe demarco was the #1 guy you must don't know **** about boxing then. Just because he beat linares when getting outboxed doesn't mean he was #1 abril was better than demarco go got robbed in the rios fight. Demarco has always been a punching bag tough opponent but not number 1.

        Lol you even contradict yourself like you said yourself escobedo was there to make broner look good and still cheat him on weight come on lol.

        Lmaol at demarco being #1

          How does he "get hit so much?" Broner is willing to engage fighters who's power he doesn't respect. Gavin Rees couldn't have hurt AB had Broner put his hands at his side and allow the boy to tee off. For all the "landing" Malignaggi, he only managed a connect percentage of 25. Hate to tell you, holding a world class fighter, with fast hands, who has no intentions of landing anything of consequence to 25% connects is damn good defense. Especially considering that Broner stood right in front of him. The only thing Broner did wrong in that fight was not use any lateral movement. But are things he can learn. Demarco didn't land ****. Why? Because Broner respected his power. Maidana ain't gonna land ****. Why? Broner knows he has power. Folks like yourself just don't like Broner and look to shi on anything he does.

              Lmaol folks like myself don't respect ****ty ass prospects until they fight someone their own size and competitive. I mean when you are a prospect and don't respect your opponent regardless then you are not committed like arum said?? Remember broner doesn't just want to be a regular champ he is talking up his ass he is the next mayweather when is not even close.

              Pbf could of never gotten hurt by JMM and others did he stood there and trade like a dumbass???? A complete. Fighter doesn't do **** like that and don't use demarco as an excuse cause demarco never had one punch ko power he stood right there because he is slow and is a punching bag thats why his team choose him instead of abril who has a weaker punch than demarco. I mean your theory is so ****** tell me what happened in the pdl fight cause he sure as hell does have more power than demarco.

              I won't respect broner until he proves himself against a good fighter even against paulie he looked ****ty. If he decided to stay there and get hit then that tells me he just sucks and is not the complete package.

              Broner needs to prove something in his next fight for people like me can respect him and see his true skills.

                how is that a contradiction?just cause broner beats him easily means escobedo sucks? floyd beat canelo easily, does that mean canelo was put there to make him look good?

                  Pbf beat a champ easily that had a good performance against a good and undefeated champ in trout. Was Escobedo a champ or had a good performance against a champ he lost against katsididis the most notable fighter in his resume when katsidis itself wasn't great.

                    I know you don't like dominant confident black fighters such as Mayweather/Broner so that makes me believe you are not black. But talent wise they are great, and Ward is #2.

                      Lol i don't know if the guy you replied too doesn't like black boxers or not but one thing is for sure broner is not dominant. Not even against his step ups in competition such as pdl and malig.

                      Please dont use broner in the same sentence as pbf and ward.
