Comments Thread For: Broner: I Was Beating Granados Up, This Was an Easy One For Me

[Basco]

Broner struggled with what should've been an easy opponent based on his talent. The problem with Broner is he can handle pressure fighters. His face was one of frustration throughout the whole fight. He has to start using more his counterpunching abilities. Some times he look stellar doing it while some times he just pulls back, hands extended, head back and he gets hit way too much in the process. A little more head/waist/leg movement could to wonders to his defense.

You see, for Broner to say "this was an easy one for me" is what makes some people dislike him. If anyone with a pulse watched that fight it definitely was NOT an easy win for Broner. It could've gone either way with the judges. Could anyone really complain if it was judged a draw? I think not.

people keep saying this but why? hes not that talented. never has been. its not like he was dominating all these top guys and suddenly lost his way. he struggled early in his career, he struggled in the middle, hes struggling now. hes just a struggling mannnnnnnnnnnnn no time to loseeeeeee

Broner HAS talent man! If you can't see that you might be following the wrong sport. The problem is, he is running only on talent because he hasn't been able to develop further. In his mind, he believes that's all he needs and that doesn't allow him to learn and adapt to other styles/skills. I dislike Broner as much as the next guy but he has some innate talent!

It was anything but easy. He was pushed hard, and had to hold a lot.
I had Granados edging it, but i could see the same score the other way or even a draw. I thought it was a close fight.

Looking at the other top WW and i'm not seeing where Broner goes next for a win. I can't see him beating any of those guys.
The other 'name' fighter's aren't going to let him dick around with weigh issues either.

Decent fight though.

He does realize Granados face was busted up from a elbow and head buts.

and how do you define talent? sounds like some ambiguous word that people use like saying he outboxed someone. what does it really mean? does he have hand speed? yes. is that what talent is?usain bolt has the most talent in the world lets put him in the ring. hes got so much talent people would say as he gets knocked out 75 times in a row.

if wards low blows count as a vicious body attack then i dont see why an elbow cant be counted as a clean shot

Broner is the king of cherry pickers. Allakhverdiev , Theophane, Granados? I mean, who gives this guy ideas?
