    The only way Broner won that fight is if you include his clinches and elbows as punches. He couldn't even lock Granados down properly on the inside, Granados was always working with his free hand.

    That wasn't a close fight, **** decision.

      That's true!!
      I hate when people quote compubox, like one boxer could throw most of those punches in the one round and do fck all for the rest of the fight.... compubox is grand for a round by round basis.... not for a full fight

          Exactly! Granados won this fight anyway, but the Ref and judges were also on his side. No way to win in Cincy without a KO.

            Very entertaining fight. Granados was very aggressive but he just got hit too much and the fact Broner busted his face up didn't do him any favors with the judges. Very close fight could have been a draw at minimum. But Adrien Broner has a lot of work to do he needs to stop admiring his work and follow up. All in all Granados is no push over and any man fighting for a purpose is going to be tough to beat PERIOD much respect for both. Great fight! Good job AB

              Granados was going to be relentless, Broner was going to be flashy. Broner was going to lose a bunch of rounds (just like he's done since Ponce - hell, let's go back to Quintero). Broner was going to look to counter Granado's habit of reaching in. Broner was going to do a load of holding. Granados would lose a close decision, however the fight went. Broner would do a cringeworthy interview with Jim Grey.
              Check and check, what I expected as soon as I saw the matchup.

                yeah, he was just holding and letting granado work his body.

                    I don't care about the scoring of the fight because frankly I have not watched it(recording now). Broner in spite of all the hype, is not "all that". He is not elite, he is a contender but not elite still! I am not sure why he gets all the hype he does, because once the bell rings he turns in an ordinary performance.

                      So you hate when they use it for whole fight. Those who do that are dumb anyways.
