Broner's problem: Lack of maturity and identity?

[Willthethrill]

Imo he's just not that good. He's a good athlete but when asked to box well, he's average. Possibly a smidgen better than average. Not even sure about that though.


Lets not forget that he was gridlocked with Emmanueal Taylor going into the last few rounds. He didn't look good against Malignaggi. I don't consider Malignaggi anything special. He arguably got outboxed by Ponce De Leon.

His one true dominating performance was against a flat footed, slow Demarco.

And I'm not even hating. I have grown completely impartial to Broner. I wish him the best.

I think broner is a good fighter. He has shown flashes of being special. He has fast hands. He throws really good combos when he actually lets his hands go. He just looks worse than he actually does because for whatever reason he doesn't like to let his hands go. Look at the chino fight. When he was walking him down he had success. He would definitely be a better fighter if he was more aggressive

He is still relatively young in his career. I'll have a more complete assessment of him in about 2-years. These flash in the pan moments of special don't come often enough. And since he's moved up in weight and competition, he hasn't looked special at all.


But like I said, time will tell how good he is. And I wish him the best. I look forward to watching him fight for years to come and see what he becomes.

He has a team of yes men that probably let him get away with missing training and being late because he want to be with the rappers strippers etc ....he blows up after his fight so he not traing all year around maybe one of the reason he doesn't throw much or move around ....but if he could be focuse in boxing 100% he could be a problem

Broner is a joke. He's a talented fighter but he does not have the discipline or the focus to be a top level champion. He doesn't take boxing seriously.

He tries to compare himself to Floyd Mayweather but he will never be Floyd Mayweather.

Floyd never let his flash lifestyle get in the way of his training and preparation for his fights. Boxing always came first and he enjoyed the fruits of his labor but not until he took care of business in the ring and structured his team and people he associates with to maximize revenue from those fights.

Broner needs to cut out all the other **** and focus on boxing, He needs to learn how to separate the lifestyle from his profession and realize what is most important.

Martinez is light years of a better boxer than Broner. Martinez didn't even box, he was a damn soccer player. Broner has been a boxer his whole life.

Well he was more disciplined and consistent in fighting in a way that complimented his best attributes.

[PulpFriction]

Too many problems for Broner. He has a diva attitude with marginal skills. Bad footwork, bad work ethic, poor ring IQ, gains too much weight in between fights, etc. I could go on, it's up to Broner to cut his entourage and soley focus on his talents but he'll continue to crash and burn.

Even if he does , He still wont be worth a ****!
