Thurman wil soon be a star

[Scipio2009]

just gives you a bit of a reference

Floyd's been carrying the crown as a top star for the last 15 years and THE top star for the last decade and, prison stint aside, hasn't gone crazy yet. Adrien Broner got a baby touch of what it'd mean to be a top star and has seemingly gone bat****.

If you're good enough to break through, the amount of attention and scrutiny that you're going to get is ridiculous

most fighters do go crazy and beloved ones like oscar who turned to drugs or tyson need i say more? the fact is being a star in boxing really gets to people in certain ways

I think this fighter did not fought an A side boxer. all of his 25 fight i think they pick up anywhere. i believe him if he fight Danny Garcia thats his real fight.

Tell that to Broner, who seems like he's crumbling under the weight.
