Comments Thread For: Broner: I Don't Go For Knockouts, But I Want a KO

[RisAri0]

short, crisp, quick punches is how he'll beat Maidana, he needs to close the distance becuz Maidana can catch you on the outside, but telegraphed... once Maidana feels Broner's speed, he's not going to press on as much as we think he will... Let's not forget, Maidana is open for a lot of counters... Broner has to worry about Maidana's over hand right, once he gets that timed then a counter uppercut will do damage... can't fuccin wait for tonight!

Maidana has improved,so he might try to box a lil bit wit broner the one walking him down...who knows,but didnt broner say he was gonna beat that man to death??so you as a fan is hoping broner doesnt go toe2toe with maidana??

Don't matter you or I want, we are not the ones getting hit in that ring. Broner and every fighters 1st Priority always should be to...WIN!

If your not in boxing to win...WTF are you fighting for? (and the Money as well of course!) I don't expect anything from any fighter. As a spectator I watch boxing because I FIND entertainment in it regardless of how a fighter fights. I don't need toe to toe action to enjoy a boxing match, I am just as impressed with a 12 Round BOXING CLINIC than I am a Toe to Toe fight which results in a KO

So Broner as well as Maidana should fight the style that can help them get the WIN and if it just so happen to be entertaining than GREAT FOR US THE FANS!

It is so easy to have all these demands and want fighters to eat punches and do all the things you want them to do when your not the one getting hit.

Broner should have no problem getting a knockout here

It aint our demands its wut broner say he gonna do and thats beat that man to death...us as fans tend to hold fighters to their words rite?.now if he changes his gameplan ur right hes the one in the ring thats gonna have to make afjustments,like i said in previous post i doubt hes gonnA go toe2toe with maidana anyways so i wouldnt be surprised,its too much of a risk and broner aint more then a very good fighter yet,but if he wants to be on the steps of greatness one dayhes got to,beat maidana up spectaculary. If its close hes gonna get so much more critisism becuz hes suppose to beat this guy easily and could be remembered as a very good fighter who tried to hard to be like floyd mayweather...

Broner wants this knockout badly but I hope he doesnt get knockout hungry because Maidana can take a punch and his wins usually come sometimes after he's received devastating knock downs. Broner has to avoid allowing Maidana get under his skin because Maidana loves to get a guy angry.

Broner needs to work the body, he's a very good body puncher. This will be an interesting fight, Maidana is no walk in the park.

Broner is not knocking out Maidana at 147.

I'm having a hard time making up my mind on this fight. First, I've never been a big fan of Maidana for his skills, but he has made me somewhat of a believer as to how he has been able to get his hard shots in and outlast opponents.

Broner is more talented but he is moving up in weight, and I don't think he has ever faced someone who matches his punching power.

We've seen Maidana go down several times but we've never seen Broner go down in a fight, or even seem to be hurt by a punch. I would say therefore that Maidana has more big fight experience.

Broner does not throw a lot of punches generally, unless he has chance to take a guy out. I think if you're going to get Maidana out of there, you need to hurt him early because he seems to get stronger as the fight goes on. I'm just wondering what Broner's reaction will be if he gets hit with something that stuns him or hurt him to the body, because the punches are not going to flow all in one direction, from him to Maidana.

Broner is overconfident. He was overconfident for Paulie and he is overconfident now.

It's not about hate, because I actually don't hate Broner and I think he is good for boxing. If it goes to the cards, they will give it to Broner, but the only KO will come from Maidana.

Maidana wears his pain on his sleeve - he does not have a good poker face. So when he gets hurt Broner will be able to tell and the speed will be too much. You cannot let a eager cat like Broner who is aggressive at times know when you are hurt. This will be the telling point of the fight.

Lopez knocked him down, Broner can knock him down and perhaps keep him down. I don't say this to hate on Maidana, but he's just a crude fighter. He's shown to be a little chinny, he recovers well, but he gets dropped and he's been hurt on other occasions. Maidana telegraphs too much and I predict it gets him hurt in this fight.
