I thought he would get away with it if he went to the body of Maidana but Maidana just jumped on from the get go. I knew that if Broner couldn't do damage to Maidana then he would be in big trouble but I figured he put a lot of damage on Maidana's body and everything else would fall into place. Maidana protected his body pretty well. He blocked more body shots then he did his face.

Sounds like the stuff Dwyer was spewing, he was claiming that Broner was the KO artist in the fight.

Mine is during All Access when Broner was hitting the heavy bag, he said something like when Maidana loses and cries he will say shut up *****

Then Broner leaves crying

Jesus Christ you can even make this stuff up

I don't think any of us expected his output to be that damn low. He barely broke double digits in some rounds.

For the love of boxing, I could not see how Broner was favored.

Peoples misconception, and it's such a common one.

LEVEL OF COMPETITION MATTERS.

It doesn't matter how unbelievable you look until you face someone real. We saw who Broner is now, and what level he is at. Simple as that. He finally faced someone real.

I didn't expect Maidana to be able to catch him to the head. Paulie struggled to tag Broner upstairs so I didn't think the slower Maidana would manage it, but he did...and the rest is history.

this where he really showed he isn't great, he doenst throw much and trys to focus on defense when his defense isn't all that! Floyd knows how to shift and shape from one to the other and at times doing both at the same time! broner felt maidanas power and he was scared to throw. but he did finish strong for how bad he looked
