Broner wins by KO.

Damn, very surprised to see him make 138.

I will be rooting hard for the bum he is fighting, whatever his name is. It would be great if Broner loses to this cherry pick, extremely embarrassing and humiliating. Hoping for the KO.

Referees gonna save Broner.



Khabib via TKO

Khabib been gone too long. Vargas broke his face, heart, long layoff. When Khabib feels his power he's going to lose focus.

Cherry pick? Khabib is a better fighter than Benevidez and a fomer two belt holder. It's only logical, if you know boxing, to praise this bout...

Who would've thought... Broner the lightest of the 4 people fighting for the JWW titles tomorrow

[Corelone]

Something stung him. He got his feelings hurt. GOOD. Get mad if it makes Broner get serious. Good luck to both of these guys. I'm waiting for a good fight.
