Comments Thread For: Mayweather Tried To Warn Broner About Tougher Fights

[hitking]

You don't get points for hugging or for faking you been hit in the ball and crawling around the canvas howling.

Hopkins got out classed.

What a f.uckin' idiot.

Floyd needed to teach Broner the art of cherry picking.

When to pounce on old great fighters when they are well past their prime.

How to target green fighters that are hyped.

And the excuses to use to avoid the real threat.

You are such a tool!

That thread title is so misleading. I love it.

It's creepy to think Broner's calling Floyd "big brother" when they're in private. He's a damn stalker.

The whole big bro/lil bro thing isn't unique to Floyd and AB. Not to make it a racial thing. But I know several black people that aren't related and have big bro/lil bro relationships. I have two. I'm an only child and have a guy that's severals older that was my "big bro" as a kid and I still call him that today. I have a cat that's several years younger tthat I called my "lil bro", and I still do to this day. And they call me lil bro and big bro respectively. And my "big bro" is 40, I'm in my 30s, and my "lil bro" is in his mid 20s. Its not a big deal.

Adrien Broner,just sit, relax and watch how the surgeon operates MAIDANA with surgical blade punches!

Forget the warning, why didn't Floyd tell (or teach) Broner to take a side step. That's all you have to do to beat Maidana. Just look at the Alexander fight. He stepped to the side and hit Maidana at will. Broner backed straight up , with no side-to-side movement. Basic boxing 101 -- step straight back and you land on your back. IT's that simple.

Calzaghe punches barely touched Hopkins. Hopkins was hitting Calzaghe clean.

Anyway Broner is still being a dolt, posting Instagram videos and pictures of him sitting on the crapper while his girl texting next to him.

In other words....Broner should of told Maidana,'my health come first'.

he didnt tell him not to fight maidana, he just told him you cant get away with certain things against world class fighters the same way you do against lesser fighters.

that things that work against C and D level fighters may not work against A and B level fighters.

you really should read more than the title, dude.

I find it rather curious that Mayweather and Broner are supposed to be so close, yet Floyd kind of clowns Adrien by going to the press with this info. He's basically saying, "Yeah, I tried to school the boy, but his dumb ass just don't listen." We'll see if this "friendship" stays intact.

Well Broner got jumped, and now 'Big brother' is here to take revenge.

Not that it matters at this point, but FWIW I had Cal beating Hopkins closely but clearly. Yes, Hopkins landed the cleaner, more meaningful shots, but they were way too few and far between. Cal's flurries of slaps carried the action for most of the fight.
