There's very little "pride" left in boxing

    This is why I have the utmost respect for Hopkins. He's facing a very dangerous fighter just so he can prove it to himself that he's a great fighter.

      Hopkins is definitely another one.

          Agreed. Broner is all talk, he ain't ****! He call dudes out wrecklessly, knowing this isn't a chance in hell he gets in the ring with them. Ala Pacquiao and Mathysse.

              i agree with the fine folk who say mayweather's balls > broner

              broner folds a little, turning into a punching bag is a form of surrender, he's waiting for things to be perfect instead of gritting his teeth and making things happen with his fists

              a mayweather at broners age teeming with energy would never let that fly, he has to get you back, he's not sitting around for the full 12 letting you tee off on him, usually when someone lands on him, more so if he's hurt, he'll come storming back with punches and ferocity, it's what makes an atg, not simply walking forward trying to act tough but not letting your hands go, it's "fighting back from adversity" as they say

                  To beat Floyd you are going to have to damn near kill him..he has to much pride to just lose

                    yea...i agree that fighters like PAC and Floyd who have paid their dues coast towards the end of their careers...but when i see guys like Stevenson or Quillin, it makes me sick

                      Wtf are you on man? At his age Mayweather was busy taking on the best not talking about facing them. Broner is all talk, his most dangerous opponent is a guy Floyd faced twice. There's nothing great about calling fighters when you're one of Haymon's puppets.

                      Guys like Manny and Floyd reached the pinnacle of the sport by defeating the best not being flashy, calling out names while then facing the Molinas and Taylor's of the world.
