    Broker got heart even though he acts like a fool.

      The Chavez Jr. beat down was worse, but everyone has always known Chavez Jr. was a joke.

        I think the Broner beat down was more humiliating and plus Madonna fractured his jaw.


        Remember Frank Ducketts and all the other guys who claimed Broner was the next Floyd losing their **** after the fight good times.

          This is like comparing apples to hamburgers. Chavez quit on his stool makes his fight worse alone. Broner despite getting his ass kicked actually showed a lot of heart, fighting back even though he had really no chance to win. Broner finished the fight strong, gained respect even though he lost, he was game, Chavez quit, imagine if Provodnikov would have quit last night (glad I watched HBO live).

            How is the poll almost 50-50? Chavez quit, but even if he didn't he didn't win a round, also Broner's loss didn't end his career, Chavez is done (and dumb), he will get beat by most if not all top 168 (that is why Froch dreamed of fight Chavez in Vegas, he could have KO'd the hype job and rode off in the sunset).

              I haven't seen the Jr. fight yet myself-- The degree of satisfaction with watching Broner get whacked was pretty high. People with eyes who though Broner a) Wasn't all that, and b) had up to a few dubious decisions, were pretty satisfied with the drubbing he got. In Jr's case, everybody knew he had potential but that he had a history of being unmotivated and fighting on his name. I think that's just less satisfying to see than the Broner scenario, even if quitting on your stool is worse.

                Nothing beats this:



                Broners memes went viral, they were all over the internet on websites that have absolutely NOTHING to do with boxing or even sports.

                The Chavez fight, while embarrassing, has not even came close to that.

                  Broner's career was nearly not as easily handed to him the way Chavez was on a plate. The dude had a sanctioning body President backing him LOL. He invents his own weight divisions ffs. The way he was handed Martinez's belt was so pathetic. At least with Broner he has beaten some decent names: Rees (former World champ), DeMarco (for the LW title) and Malignaggi (WW title). Now that's not a murderer's row, but Chavez had to come in as a Cruiser for his punches to have an effect on Middleweights and out muscled them for the win.

                    Yeah, while Broner was much more arrogant, he made a strong effort and never gave up.

                    Still due to the enormous arrogance of Broner and that he left the ring in an unsportsmanlike fashion Id say that was more humiliating defeat.

                      I got more satisfaction from seeing Broner eat humble pie but at least he fought his heart out and he actually went up in my opinion after that.

                      Chavez just quit.
