    Jumping up to 147....fighting paulie was a freebie...but he would eventually have to fight something real.

        Broner is the new Zab Judah. He will look great against C level opponents, but will never win the big one. I give him his props against Maidana. He got hammered but never stopped trying, so he has the heart. But with Porter, his head just wasn't in it. Ability wise, like Judah, he could be a hall of famer, but with his lack of focus, I see him going down the same road as Zab.

            In ten years, when Broner looks like his old man, he'll be picking up the change people drop outside Walmart.

                  Mayweather was basically saying it's sad because nobody in the store knew who the **** Broner was.

                    I know & it's funny, but it rings hollow coming from the dude who has young kids and is throwing around his dollar bills saying "I don't go to the strip club, the strip club comes to me."

                      Man, Adrien Broner needs to realize that this **** he's doing isn't working.

                      There are a lot of reasons as to why it isn't working, but in my personal opinion, the reason why is because Adrien is a ****** boxer. Not a ****** person mind you, a ****** boxer. A boxer with the ring IQ of a wheel of cheese. Floyd could play the role he played because 1) He had the boxing ability, kinda like Adrien mind you, to get in the ring, and get business done while making his opponent look as ordinary as the girl you drunkenly took home from the club the morning after, and 2) He was just about the smartest person when he stepped foot in the squared circle.

                      Adrien tries to emulate Floyd, but fails when he steps up because he doesn't have the ability to think in the ring like Floyd. He gets caught with the same dumb asz punches for 12 damn rounds, can't deal with pressure fighters, and can't think and make adjustments on fly. For example, Floyd v Sugar Shane. Shane threw a jab to the body that Floyd tried to parry, then came with that Right Hand of Doom that hit Floyd flush and almost turned Floyd into a ragdoll. The strategy only worked ONCE, because after he recovered, Floyd adjusted, and neutralised it, resulting in him dominating the rest of the fight. Maidana v Broner, Maidana would throw that punch to the body that Broner would constantly parry, so he started feinting as though he was going for the body, causing Adrien to "parry" and drop his guard, then change the punch's course and get him on his unprotected chin. He did that **** multiple times, and Adrien CONTINUED to fall for it, to the point where he was knocked down by it. Knocked down by a punch/strategy he had seen the WHOLE night.

                      Adrien needs to ditch his current team, humble himself, go to Mayweather's gym and ask Floyd Sr to help him perfect his defense, because he really is going down the Judah road. **** loads of talent, but let down by a father trainer who isn't able to properly train and maximise it.
