Adrien Broner may act like a fool but he's no dumbass...

[7_rocket]

I don't get why everyone hates Broner so much. Who cares what he does outside of the ring? It's not like he's out committing crimes- killing people or starting prpstitution rings... That's his business, man. He's a young guy on a big stage, we need guys with some personality/charisma in the sport.


That said, a loss is NOT the end of the world and he will be fine. I guess some people just expected way too much and maybe his promoter is to blame a bit for hyping him as the next Floyd- after PDL, he hasn't been tested, jumping from paulie to Maidaina is a big leap due to styles and type of fighters: Maidaina can hurt you, Paulie can't.

It's his personality that turns people off. It's that simple. If he was a proven fighter with some creditable wins I'm sure he wouldnt receive the backlash.

But seriously, posting a picture of you getting head from two females? That stripper incident. Being over weight.

I think he's more focused on being a celebrity rather than being dedicated to his craft. He needs to focus on his bread and butter which is boxing. He's simply not dedicated enough.

For me, I dislike his personality because when he opens his mouth he comes off an unintelligent babbling baboon. I don't hate him though, just don't like his attitude as a person.

He has 5 kids and he's 23. I vote hes a dumbass

Fair enough, I'm not interested in boxers personal lives though. I don't even go in those threads so I really don't know what kind of stuff he said or did.

Broner has no personality/ charisma he's a superficial narcissist with no identity. Guys like GGG / D. Garcia have personalities

Well you might not be interested but being a boxer means your an athlete which means you're a celebrity. And people are always interested in their lives.

He chose to be in the spotlight. No one likes a person who talks trash but can't back it up. I tried to listen to his interview on power 105.1? Whatever that radio that is and I had to click the x at to top.

With the right training and dedication he can still become a superstar. He's a grown man now, loose the grills and rap career.

Boner should just go away. Or put him in with Groves @168 for the s.hit of it.... Boner deserves more beatings. Beat that Boner.

[tusc1976]

What's the point of this thread?

We saw that Broner is far from being ****** or talentless... He behaves like shit, alright...

"Da problem" he really faces is that he is not fully dedicated to the sport...

My point is the fans are also complicit in this. If we are not watching or paying to see him fight it doesn't matter. People are celebrating that he lost. But it is the same emotion and disdain we have for him that made him the headliner in the first place. If I am disgusted by the content of a program, I am not going to watch. But we watch anyway and then talk about how disgusted we were by the program.

I don't think Broner created a character. I think he really is a conceited, classless, hateful, disrespectful, disgusting dumbass. His conduct in the Maidana fight showed again whan an Ahole Broner really is. He sure as hell is not the future of boxing.

[bojangles1987]

Being the bad guy only works if you can back it up in the ring. Broner didn't, and now will get a lot less attention until he rebuilds his reputation, if he can.

[SlySlickSmooth]

So you're saying Broner is smart because he knows how to act ignorant for the cameras?

I think you should be pointing your fingers at humanity for buying into the persona.
