Broner was dead ass tired after 10 rounds I thought dude was more focused?

Broner to me isn't a 147er he's small in stature & Granados didn't look like the thicker man in there but was easily able to out-muscle Broner. Bigger welters already know the blueprint to beating him. He hit a fatigued & sloppy at that point oncoming zombie in Granados late & never really hurt him. He's now 3-2 at 147 & this fight could've gone either way. This was supposed to be a homecoming coronation for Broner to kick off a new chapter in his career & he had to dogfight his way to a slim victory.
For all the crap Broner talks about how much he's changed & taking his career seriously he requested a 10 round fight & then moved weight from 142 to 147 & looked
fatigued going into last two rounds. He was better skilled of course and finished strong but looked pedestrian at times.Comment

I just don't know man. Granados struck me as a cross between Chino and John Molina. Which makes him tailor made for a rangy Algieri to pick off at distance.
He looked good against Broner only when Broner went into the booth. When Broner kept range off the jab and the checkhooks, Granados looked just as bad as Molina.Comment

True, mid range was Broner all night. Granados kept getting hit flush with uppercuts too.
But the couple of rounds when Granados chose to box from long range, he won those rounds.
I think Granados got too greedy staying inside for too long in the middle rounds. But he switched the gameplan in the 7th and 8th rounds and chose to slow it down a little bit and it worked.
Then I feel like he got tired as **** at the very end of the last round and that's what caught him. Those shots at the end by Broner, cost Granados the fight. If he finished that 10th round stronger, he would've won.Comment

I don't think Broner is gonna be the top guy at 147 ever, but I think he could beat a few top ten guys in his future despite his ups & downs in his career. I mean he's talented he just lacks focus. If he ever gets focused I think he'll have a much better career from then on & he's done pretty f#cking good half assing it for the last few years.
If these rankings are legit I think I'd like Broner's chances over Vargas & Khan.
Khan might be winning for a few rounds, but I suspect he gets stopped later on or just dropped a few times which would decide the fight. Vargas has probably gotten more bs decisions than any top ten guy in boxing today so I think he's overrated even being in the top ten, but whatever.
And I think Diaz might be a close fight where just like tonight the close rounds are going more Broner's way than Diaz's way so I don't hate his chances there. Plus I don't hate a more serious Broner's chances vs Porter in a rematch. Broner looked like a unmotivated loser for that whole fight only to seem like he was actually trying to win in the last round. If Broner fought like he did in the 12th for the whole fight I got no lil doubt Broner beats Porter.Comment
