I was at the fight and a broner fan

[Beercules]

The knock down saved Broner.

Once again Broner fails to impress me.

Just curious, if you were at the fight can you tell us what all the commotion in the audience was about.

aparently the rappers got jumped for some reason it was on the other side tho

[Cinci Champ]

So you had Broner losing and then say it was a great performance? Taylor did nothing special, just threw more punches and when he stopped doing that, he did nothing.

Broner won but it was close, mainly due to Taylor lacking experience/skill/stamina/power.

no i was saying in person taylor looked like he might of edged him if not for knockdown even with but when i got home watched it i scored it for broner

In all fairness, Taylor would have had to win that fight by 3-4 rounds to get the nod, imo. It was Broner's fight to win before the bell rung.

With that being said, the only thing I was impressed with was Broner's toughness and composure. Nothing else was impressive, even his power was mediocre for all the "bombs" he landed.

He was in tough with a guy who will be nothing more than a career journeyman.

Broner would struggle against any of the top 140 guys (lucky for him there's not that many good ones.)

And if he decides to take his talents to the WW division, he's a dead man.

ya thats probably true but same goes for guy on ur tag anyone fights canelo they will have to win by at least 4 rounds to get the decision

I honestly don't see GBP or Haymon allowing Broner to fight Matthyse. Bronner hasn't looked impressive since he was at 135.

[Dr Rumack]

I had it 6-6, and Taylor had the winning of the 12th until the knockdown. Could see 7-5 Broner, anything more a little generous to him imo.

[MDPopescu]

Given the overall context, I think that 116-111 was a credible scorecard...

I was there too and and scored it 9-3 Taylor with a 10-8 12th for AB. I was riding for broner of course being the hometown hero, but live it looked like Taylor washed him. He just wasn't active enough and taylor landed everything. Like by at least 3-1. The kd saved broner in terms of the performance in the arena because.folks would've turned on him if he didn't get that.

I'll watch the broadcast when I can, but being there live, this fight really wasn't even close. Taylor walked away with it imo because broner just didn't do enough.

When watching Broner on TV, one may clearly hear him shouting with each punch he throws -- just like Sharapova does.
