    Shane Mosley gets a ridiculous amount of love and romanticism considering he's an admitted steroid cheat.

    I'm sure there are a small minority of people who don't like Broner simply because he's black but it's kinda lazy to just play the race card so easily.

    He markets himself in a way in which is going to generate a lot of negativity.....same as Mayweather.

        Broner is erudite in his own way.

        The dude definitely has a bit of charm. And in the ring he delivers as far as I am concerned.

        He is a world class fighter and if he stays away from 147 he will in some great fights.

            I cant think of any black or white. there's some white fighters that get hate every bit as much as black fighters. its behavior and such that brings on the hate from fans. it shouldnt be assumed to be race when it goes both ways

              P. Will, Crawford, Jacobs, Kirkland, Mosley, Forrest, Cunningham. They aren't "beloved by all", but they don't receive much hate. Peterson didn't receive hate until his testosterone 'situation'.
