    Is Adrien Broner's career already over?

    He was trying to position himself to be the next great. From Roy to Floyd to Broner is how he drew it up. Its obvious thats gone, but is he finished? Is this exposure gonna just destroy his career? Is the fact that everyone knows his mouth is 10x stronger than he actually is going to ruin him?

    No it is not the end. And I don't know anyone who really thought he would be the next Mayweather.

        He made so many technical errors it ain't even funny, I don't know whether it was stubbornness that didn't allow him to correct them, or feeling like he was that much superior to Maidana. I think he needs an attitude change personally. Watching him get countered made me appreciate guys like Ward and Hopkins even more, the idea is to be offensive while leaving veryyyyyyy little room to get countered, Broner better learn that.

        I never thought he'd be the best next thing, I fully expected him to run through Maidana which wouldn't have meant much to me personally, but the next best thing? With that footwork/ speed of his, absolutely not.

            Seems unbelievable but plenty did.

            Especially pre-Pauli.

                It depends on Broner himself. He can be like Naseem Hamed and quit or he can rise up and be champion again.

                AB can't be about billions anymore. The most he can make now is a tenth of that.

                  As for his career, he may have taken a beating but Timothy Bradley took an even bigger one at the hands of Provodnikov, of course humans are built differently but let me continue. I understand that Bradley and Broner are two entirely different levels of fighters, different mentalities but Broner should at least take a page out of Bradley's career. Bradley early on in his career was reckless, that's what he was known for at one point, he tuned down the recklessness and improved his game a ton, so I'd advise Broner to look into Tim's career. It's still amazing that Bradley took a serious beating against Provodnikov and came back to box beautifully against Marquez.

                    Does anyone know if he's even ok?
                    He looked like crap when he left. Some of those punches he took were just brutal. He did take an ass beating of epic proportions. I know he has the IQ of a snail, so there's not much lost with a bit of brain damage, but those body shots made some sick noise when they landed and he took a good number of them.
