Lewis/Wlad/Hopkins all came back from defeats. So why doubting Broner?

    howcum you say he's a average fighter? He's a champion and no average fighter become champs.

      Broner just needs to dedicate himself to his craft and focus

        Well considering he doesn't wear rubbers and he has like 8 kids, you're probably right.

          Wlad took a beating from Sanders far worst than anything Broner did. That wasn't a 'quick ko' that was like 5+ minutes of getting knocked down and than eventually getting stopped. Broner was at least competitive.

          Broner was semi competitive against Maidana.
          Wlad was zero competitive against Sanders/

            Because he still has glaring flaws and went life and death with Taylor. Not to mention Taylor hit him with the same punches Maidana did.


            He has to get past Molina. This is a dangerous fight for Broner, and he could very well get Mickey Bey'd.

              But he's just a kid man. Broner is in the same situation as rich kids with supporting families. I know he ain't rich to begin with but he got money now.

              It's just like you know how rich kids are lazy in college and rarely work? Because they moms buy them nice cars(my Mom did). So the desire is less often. That's why the poorer kids get made first like that character in the book' The FIrm'? He was like this poor kid that worked hard and got a BMW? Than he found out he was doing work for the mob and shyt. Broner not like that but he like that other dude in that movie Dead man on campus? Not the main character but his friend who had a rich dad? Broner sort of like that but he don't have a rich dad only a very fat one

                The difference is wlad, Lewis and Hopkins, despite losing, either completely dominate or destroy guys beneath them. Lennox Lewis 12-0 David tua, killed Rahman in the rematch, destroyed Michael grant, etc. broner barely beats guys of that caliber and its debatable if his wins are even that good, I'd suggest they're not. I love watching the guy, he's a great combination puncher but he's limited and will never reach the top level.

                  What puts question marks over his career for me is what he's doing in between bouts. With the amount of weight that he puts on I can't imagine that he's in the gym improving his craft, and that really is where he needs to be. There are too many holes in his game for him to rest on his laurels, but that's what he seems to be doing.

                    Why is it always about weight? You do realize it's unhealthy to be like 5'6 and 130 pounds right? Broner is 5'6 1/2. He should be around 147 healthy.

                      Broner peaked. He isn't changing.

                      The flawed shoulder roll will remain there. He has concrete feet. A low punch out put.

                      He lost to PDL, barely got past Paulie, lost to Quintero.

                      He has been hyped from the start.
