Comments Thread For: Broner-Allakhverdiev Title Fight Heading To Cincinnati

[StrangerInTown]

Haymon can keep selling this guy but Broner will never have any business competing with A list competition. He will be remembered for not living up to his potential and having a friend or two in high places.

Good opponent in a place it should be... third fight announced in the place it should be. Maybe Haymon is learning.... let's see if this trend continues

Not sure, since Haymon hasn't really had any trouble matching Broner tough. I don't think he likes him so he gives him these tough fights so he can get beat up. Everyone else the mention of a tough opponent and it's "woah there slow down! No need to rush things, let's take it slow....fight few bums for a few years first, alright!? Then we can talk about fighting a C+ fighter!". With Broner it's "freed him to the wolves!"

It **** like this that makes me realize just how much of a joke boxing is becoming these days. Broner just lost to Porter,and now he's getting a title shot? Based off of what,his impressive clinching skills and shaking his head 'no' every time he gets popped in the face?

2 me he is a 2nd rate fighter in a weak generation...picture him vs Duran or Pryor...what a fraud...

sweet fight to goto on my birthday weekend

I'm looking for every excuse not to drive up there for this and can't find one. Hell, its even a bye week for the Titans. I'll probably end up making the lil 4hr drive. Cincy is a cool city.

Love him or Hate him....he's going to become a FOUR (4) weight world champion...that's history whether you like it or not. He's an annoying **** but he fights tough fights, win or lose.

The last AB fight in Cincy was super live, I might go again just for the atmosphere. This is a pretty solid fight though. Allakhverdiev isn't a bum.

Funny how Haymon is making showtime buy the Broner fight instead of spending his pbc money to put it on network tv. Broner and chavez jr are the team Haymon rejects.

We've seen tons of guys take massive loses and rebound into a title fight. This ain't no different. With DSG vacating the super belt and Jessica Vargas vacating the regular. The WBA took its top 4 guys under the two and made title fights.

Considering broner has been acting a fool on network TV, this is maybe punishment for his antics. They told him to cut it out, when he didn't they throw him in there with Porter, and still acted a fool.
