    What does that have to do with anything? For what it's worth I don't see many recent 'black' fighters of note whose stock has dropped. Maybe if you want to count Gamboa but I don't know if he's "black" enough for you bigots.

      A sellout where?

      This is a guy who was supposed to be a PPV star already but you're waving your pom poms because he's headlining a show against a bum in a bingo hall?

        Broners stock hasn't dropped? What happened to being the next Mayweather?

          So Broner's stock didnt drop after he lost to Maidana?

            His next fight is rumored to be in his hometown of Cincinnati. We'll see what the crowd looks like then.

              I wouldn't think anything of your list because a lot of those guys fit the bill.. But you have a tendency to turn a blind eye or won't be critical of a black fighter..

              I understand there is a lot of racists on all sides, so sometimes you gotta defend your guys when people bash on them, but you don't want to blinded either..

              As others have said guys like broner, Bradley, Stevenson, Seth Mitchell, David haye, Russell jr, quillen have all seen their stocks dropped..

                I'm pretty sure broner will be able to sell that out, but that's his hometown.. Macro view of boxing suggests broner's stock has steadily dropped since it hit it's high mark following the demarco win..

                  So his stock hasn't dropped because he can draw a crowd in his hometown? Great logic

                    He was on national news when he made that comment about Mexicans. People all over the internet were going crazy over it. His stock hasn't dropped at all. If anything it's plateaued and it'll be right back where it was when he steamrolls through Taylor.

                      His stock as a fighter plummeted when he got steamrolled by the first real threat he faced.
