I want Broner vs Matthysse. Good clean family entertainment you can trust.

Lucas knocks that overrated clown into an early retirement.

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.

I'd agree with you bro but why agree? You said the truth, there's no other to it.

Manny just defeated a young, prime, top#4 pnd-4-pnd Bradley, it just so happens that TR now has a much thinner line of WW/LWW boxers as compared to GB. Maybe after the truce settlement between TR and GB, Manny will finally have a crack at those young guns from GB..

I didn't take nothing away from that fight, he beat Bradley the first time, nothing was proven in the rematch, that's why the PPV numbers were ****ty. Arum just wants to set off another 5 fight series since Marquez don't want to fight Pac no more.

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.

Exposed as what? Everyone already knew Rios has one dimension. Come forward and throw punches. Losing doesn't expose a fighter. Broner wasn't exposed when he lost to Maidana. Everyone except his biggest knobbers knew what Broner was. A guy with fast hands with a little pop and no defense. Losing to Maidana didn't expose that to anyone except people who thought he was Floyd. When Manny lost to Marquez, he wasn't exposed. Everyone already knew he was an offensive machine who took big risks. Floyd wasn't exposed by Maidana either. Everyone already knows Floyd doesn't look or do well versus a strong guy who throws punches in bunches from all angles. When people like you talk with words like "exposed", you show your mental age. About 13.

Out of Mattthysee, Prov, Vargus, Kabib, Rios, Herrera, Alvarado and Garcia - Broner might beat one or two but that's it. His footwork holds him back. And his KO percent over the last 3 fights is zero.

Broner hasn't improved, it'd be like the De Leon fight but about 6 rounds shorter. Seriously would never happen though, Broner would get spanked badly.

Not saying Broner beats Pacquiao but look at how Arum decides for Pacquiao.

Pacquiao is a slave, he is not his own man and will be proven he's not once he resigns with Top Rank. A mentally weak beta male let the real men take from him and control him. That's the law of nature, Pacquiao never says no, he accepts.

is this an English class ?

Broner's jaw wasn't broke but it did swell after the headbutt + left hook combination.

Paulie almost beat him..no shame in that, Paulie is one of slickest boxers in the game, Pacquiao got KO'd by Rustico Torrecampo..explain that, let me guess "he was a young kid then.." but had Floyd lost when he was a young kid you wouldn't accept that excuse, Torrecampo beat that boy ass.

who cares how he spends his money, it's HIS money, do you care that Pacquiao has a ******** problem, stop being a hypocrite. and Broner bought his mom a house that she refused to move into, do your research.

"what a real man smells like" ? explain that one.

You're saying Broner will be broke and living with his mom soon..who's the one with tax problems as we speak..

**** rider ? seems like I got under your skin, Poochiao is a fraud for trying to drag 42 yr old Marquez in the ring when he doesn't want to, Broner is new blood and will give him a good fight, we all know Poochiao's achilles heel is a counter puncher and Broner already proved his chin is solid vs Maidana. why don't you want this fight, must not have confidence in your man..

Words coming out of your ass eh mate... Pacquiao was very young and very green when he fought Rustico, Manny doesn't even have a proper coach on his corner, he was actually training by himself in the local gym. Manny in all reality was actually fighting in a professional arena in his amateur state of mind. Floyd on the other hand started out in the amateur league, had the proper training being in the national pool, but had an 84 wins, 6 losses record as an amateur..

[Showtime..]

Agreed. I can actually agree even with the Floyd-worshipers on this one. Pac v. Marquez V has some interest...but if it doesn't happen...I won't be disappointed...and apart from that fight...there are no interesting fights for Pac at Top Rank..Ruslan wouldn't even fight Rios at 140...and might lose that fight if it happens...

I'd much rather see Pac v. Broner than Pac v. Alvarado or Pac v. Ruslan...even if Pac were to fight Marquez again...after that fight...what is there left for Pac? Pac needs to leave Top Rank for GBP asap...let's try to make the Floyd fight if not..there is Maidana...Danny Garcia...Amir Khan...Broner..etc.

Dang, Pacquiao would spark Garcia out unless Garcia lands a lucky left hook.
