    Lmao GTFO. You're such a sorry ass apologist. Who the fk is Rees and who had he beaten? No to mention Broner had like a whole foot in height advantage on this dude.
    You have to understand who you're dealing with bro. Remember, this is the same guy that came into Rome's tread about Floyd fighting Lara to spout a whole bunch of straight ****** $h1t about Floyd fighting Martinez, GGG and Ward.

    Now what does a jr middleweight champion fighting a jr middleweight have to do with middleweights and super middleweights? I do not know. But it equated to that in his mind.

      I'm not sure using Rees as an example is a great idea mate.

        The more I hear from this dude the more ******ed he sounds. He's getting up there with Larry man, he really is.

          Broner has some serious problems/flaws. He clowns too much which I hate from all fighters. He drops his hands too much, which alot of fighters do and I will never understand. One dissapointing thing to me is that his team never seems like they have a plan B and Im truly starting to wonder do they ever ever ever work on boxing or do they think he is just going to be able to fight this style against anyone no matter how far he moves up.

          Now, with all that being said, I think there is one thing that people are truly underestimating. People dont give guys like Pac & Floyd enough credit. To move up and face huge guys is not easy. Its super hard to do and both have done that in short periods. People ripped Broner for the Paulie fight in terms of how he won and just for fighting Paulie anyone but I said that people are underestimating how impressive it is that he was just at SFW a couple of fights ago and now is fighting at WW. Thats impressive.

          Now to add on to this point and my thread title. I was in Atlantic City for the Rees fight. Do people realize that fight was this year? Not only this year but it was just under 10 months ago and he only had 1 fight in between then against a good but feather fisted Paulie. My point is that Rees is such a tiny midget. To be in teh ring with a guy like that and now fighting Maidana who was 161 in the ring and top 3-5 hardest punchers in teh sport is night & day. Its a shock to your system.

          I dont think people are understanding that fact. It was a bad move by his managment. After Maidana for Lopez I said that I truly thought he may be the hardest puncher in the sport right now. This is teh guy Broner is facing just months after facing guys like Rees? Its not even in the same Universe. You could just tell that he was so schocked. This was all too soon. Again, lets go even further. He just fought Escobedo last year. Do people realize this? That was a 130 pound fight and now one year later he's fighting at WW against a guy who is 161 in the ring and maybe the hardest puncher in the game. That is no easy task for anyone, e****ally if your plan is to not only go toe to toe but to walk him down.

          Broner has skill. It needs to be fine-tuned but he has alot of skill. Still, that is not going to prepare you from basically going from one level to a crazy other level. He's fighting little guy, light punchers at 130 and months later he's fighting a huge WW that is like a Jr. MW on fight night and punches like a MW. It was just flat out a shock to his system but it doesnt mean he sucks.

          Shouldve either eased him up in weight, eased him in with different level punchers, or made sure that his plan was to move alot. If not then you get shell shocked because getting hit by Escobedo & Rees is nothing like being hit by Maidana. Nothing alike. I mean just rewatch teh fights. Like I said, I was in AC. Now Im rewatching this fight. Its like 1st he was fighting a boy and now he's fighting a grown man. I know those punches hurt. He never felt anything even close to that. I know his face & body is all bruised up & sore.
          Broner said the fans can vote who he fights next. Matthyse was 1, Maidana came 2nd. Since Matthyse went for Danny, Maidana was available. Broner is at fault there.

          You say Broner isn't bad, but he is. Gavin Rees is terrible, and I have seen him a lot since I am a Brit. To see Broner get tagged like that, I knew he was bad.

          His team can't control him, his ego is too big. When he got dropped, he came back and said he was OK with some attitude... 'I am OK' in an arrogant way. WTF do you tell your fighter when he isn't OK?

          Broner went up in weight which is hard, but he went up not facing good fighters. PDL is OK but isn't special. Demarco again was not special if you compare his loss to Valero. Paulie is one of the weakest 47 champs in recent memory.

          If I am honest, he had an easy route to win and his speed, power and size made a big difference. At 147 he is small to normal. You're right the jump was too much, but Maidana is much tougher than all of his wins put together.

          Broner has no defence, no footwork, no reflexes, no head movement, no fluidity.

          To use a philly shell, you need reflexes and footwork. Broner is flat footed and takes shots flush.

          Why do you think Hopkins, Pac, Bradley, Rigo, Mayweather are so good? They have footwork, speed, reflexes and angles.

          Broner never possessed angles, his punches come from one way and you can always see it. His power is good, but his stamina is weak so he can't maintain a lot of punches. Take his power / speed away and then you have a pretty weak boxer on your hands.

                I just realized he said Broner has skills lol.

                It seems like TS doesn't know the difference between being gifted and being skillful. Someone skillful would put all the tools together and not struggled vs Maidana.

                  No excuses.

                  Broner looked great against midgets because broner has always been a true WW
                  Exactly. Just because Broner's style depends on small guys he can hurt to look good doesn't mean he's undersized against welterweights.

                    He's definitely not terrible but he's just not very good.

                    Definitely not good enough to have the style he's trying to use and be successful.
