stop calling people fanboy, that's really childish, and you look dumb, you sound as much as fanboy like anybody else in here.
Looking at your sig, I know you won’t accept what I’m saying, but I’m not really saying anything that crazy. All I’m saying is the same thing I said last year with Garcia, that his fight with Matthysse was a 50/50 fight, but some of you nonsensical fan boys couldn’t see past your hero’s power. Turns out, he doesn’t take a shot that well, not saying he has the worst chin in the world, but it’s definitely not as good as someone like Provodnikov. Now that guy is a machine.
Broner did something Bernard Hopkins has done, a legend of the sport, veteran tactics, he just didn’t get away with anything, do I respect what he did, no, but he’s also not the first fighter in the world to attempt something like that, but of course we’re going to make bigger deals out of that because we hate the guy right? Should we talk about how Matthysse loves beating the back of the head of every fighter he fights?
Broner vs Matthysse is a 50/50 fight, both lost to better fighters, both men had a tough time beating subpar fighters in their “comeback” fights.

Originally posted by Aztekkas View PostHe only moved up in weight "extremely fast" because he was huge at SFW, a big LW and got beat down at WW so he dropped to LWW to be on "even grounds" with his new competition. Also, Adrien Broner's ability to absorb damage has been recognized and praised, it's just his humping of opponents, dancing all over the place when he KO's "espn level talent", and the ignorant statements/videos he makes that cause the average viewer to overlook every other aspect about him. Lucas on the other hand doesn't talk much and goes straight to work once the bell rings. You need to realize the sport fuels a fan's emotions so if a fighter angers the audience as Broner did, it will be hard for that particular fighter to get back on the fans good side regardless of how many good fights he puts on. For example you. You can see every good aspect of AB since he has yet to say something that offends you but can't give credit to Lucas whom has faced more difficult opposition than Broner... and that says alot about Broner because he has gotten belts in several weight classes while Lucas has remained at 140 and has gone on to put on great shows and fight the best of the best at his weight.. win,lose or draw he has always given a good performance. LOL upset because others don't give credit to AB yet you do the same to Lucas...sigh.
You are actually making my argument, people are “hating” and not being honest because of how they feel about him as a person. Matthysse has a great attitude, very admirable, but that doesn’t mean I’m going to say he’ll knock out everyone because I like his personality, that is something a 12 year old girl would do, most of us are men here, we should keep those feelings in check, and judge things objectively.

Originally posted by Aztekkas View PostHmmm, when did Matthysse step up? Because he was fighting the best of the best before he reached Danny. Meanwhile Broner was bashing on smaller fighters until he bit off more than he was able to chew with Maidana. Anyway that's my view on it, and you overlooked what I was getting at with my post. It doesn't matter though since I don't follow any fighter simply because of emotions but I do give credit where it's due. However, I know where you are coming from since certain fighters tend to haul some fans that are difficult to deal with, but it comes with the territory of a competitive sport. Everyone wants to be on the winner side, that's why so many fans jump ships when a fighter losses his "0" nowadays.
Matthysse definitely fought better competition, I won’t argue that.

Haha, let me guess, you were one of those guys who said Garcia wouldn’t fight Matthysse either right?
