Comments Thread For: Arum: Broner is Mediocre, Not Competitive With Pacquiao

[kingfaze19]

Are people seriously saying rios/alvarado which both at 140 would destroy Broner. Ain't a fan of either rios or mile high mike but let's be real..if he had trouble with Maidana due to his size, those guys are just as big and i'll say alvarado has faster hands than Maidana. If a fight between Broner and Rios or alvarado gets made i'll put up ten to one odds that Broner loses to either man.

respectfully disagree, i think Broner whoops Rios, the man doesn't move his head, Maidana ****ed Broner's head up with his upper body movement and underrated jab.

For Arum, it all comes down to money. Pac fighting Broner doesn't make business sense. Broner has barely any fans. Put any Mexican fighter in the ring with Pac and it will do more PPV buys than a fight with Broner.

considering it would sell more then any other pac fight besides like canelo marquez mayweather i dont see your point. that fight would be huge

Sure Arum speaks the truth but he'd be singing a different tune if Broner was with Top Rank. He talks about competitive fights after putting Manny in the ring with Rios? Rios was exposed by Alvarado and Abril. Didn't stop Arum at all.

Marcos Maidana > Rustico Torrecampo.

Broner wasn't ''exposed'' vs Maidana, he finished the fight on his feet with a broken jaw and prior to the second knock down he was putting rounds in the bank.

Broner vs Pacquiao is more intriguing than all the recycled opponents Arum can throw at Manny right now, Marquez will not do a 5th fight (thank god), Alvarado and Rios are nobodies, Provodnikov says he won't fight him, and a 3rd Bradley fight would sell worst on PPV than the second one, Pacquiao is out of fresh opponents that will spark the public's interest, Broner would definitely help Pacquiao make his biggest PPV sales ever, one thing he knows how to do is sell a fight and he already started by calling him out.

Pacquiao's future looks poor if he remains at Top Rank. Floyd is being asked to take out all the young lions (Maidana, Thurman, Porter, Garcia, Khan, Golovkin, ..) while people are content with Manny and his worthless rematches marathons, I'm starting to think Manny stays with Arum to avoid the burden of having to take on this young batch of boxers on the scene, it's safer at Top Rank for Poochiao.

arum was giving broner props by saying he's (broner) a mediocre fighter. for me broner is a d-level fighter or way less than mediocre.

or in other words, broner is nothing but a bum.

[HanzGruber]

He might...He shat all over Rigo for the last couple fights and relegated him into obscurity. Arum is just an old man who shoots off his mouth about everyone at this point.

Good point. But broner gets way better numbers than rigo. So bob would love him lol. And don't forget rigo ruined bobs future cash cow so he's prob still am about that

[dcole302]

Broner-Pac would not be competitive.. And does this mean that Broner that move up to welterweight to fight Pac?? Not happening...but I would pick Broner over Alvarado, he's just not that good to me. Rios could possibly wear Broner down in the later rounds.

Comma's aren't periods man. Broner didn't get his jaw broken in the Maidana fight, he just got his ass whooped and probably cried in the dressing room. That's why he ran there so fast. Broner, is a mediocre fighter, Paulie almost beat him. He's also ****** as ****, spending 25 g's at the strip club and flushing money down the toilet, while his mom lives in squalor. He should have bought her a house with some of that money, he's going to have to move in with her after his career is over by the time he is 25 or 26. Broner can't help Pac do anything except carry his jock strap around and sniff it every once in a while to see what a real man smells like. Same as you, **** rider.
