    Did Marcos Maidana ruin Adrien Broner?

    Think about it. Why didn't Broner try as hard to win the Porter fight as he did the Maidana fight? He really pushed Maidana. He really tried hard to win. But in the Porter fight, he didn't show that desire to win.

    I think Maidana took a lot out of AB physically and mentally.

    The punishment Broner took at the hands of El Chino was enough to knockout more than one person. AB's black-don't-crack genes saved him from getting KO'd -- or did it hurt him more (in the long run) because, by not getting flattened, he endured more punishment.

    Thoughts?

          lol, I think we all remember that night. I had people over that night that never watch boxing and couldnt stand Broner just from his ring walk.

          But to answer TSs question, I dont think he ruined Broner, just exposed him. Broner cant handle pressure fighters with a high punch out put.

            Na, Broner was never the same after the Paulie Malignaggi fight. Almost no one is ever the same after Paulie though, so there's no shame in that.

            Top name fighters who lost after fighting Paulie, or were never the same:

            Ricky Hatton - Lost TKO2 Pacquiao
            Juan Diaz - Lost UD12 JMM
            Amir Khan - Won UD12 over Maidana but almost got stopped
            Broner - Lost UD12 Maidana
            Porter - Lost MD12 Brook
            Judah - Retired after Paulie fight
            DSG - Won UD12 Guerrero but bad a much tougher time than expected against Guerrero

            Paulie Malignaggi ruins careers, all without steroids.

              It was hilarious


              Maidana was a simple brawler who couldn't handle a slick fighter like Broner.

                    Broner said Paulie's jab felt like a baseball bat.
