      Broner has been selling wolf tickets for so long that even alot of people here are buying them. Dude is a clown who out of ALL the divisions he has campaigned in, he has beaten exactly ONE top-10 fighter (Demarco)

      People trying to act like he is Godzilla or something.........lol

        I think I'd rather see him vs lomachenko at 135. Broner is lazy with his weight, and he's more of a zab Judah in that he just doesn't let his hands go. If broner wasn't guy shy, I could see him destroying Mikey, but he's not going to do it, so he'll likely lose. This isn't a crack at Mikey, but, assuming he wins, I'd like to see him fight Crawford next, a fight that he loses pretty badly imo.

          Thoughts?
          I'm going with the latter, although I don’t think it's an easy fight.

            Daring to be great against a flat-footed immovable Broner seems oxymoronic. Garcia and Broner have exactly the same size, at least in height. They both have problems figuring out the weight they want to adhere to.

              He already said he will be going back to 135 after this fight so it looks like fight with Loma is still very likely. If he beats Broner moves back to 135 and manages to look competitive vs Loma he sure is daring to be great.

                Mikey is making a very smart decision for his brand and exposure. Broner brings attention, controversy and good tv ratings. But mikey is more skilled, talented, and lives a better lifestyle. He is going to destroy Broner and gain a lot of fans in the process.

                I have no idea why casual fans still think Broner is good. I swear I'm going to make hundreds of dollars from this fight just by betting idiots at my barber shop who will pick Broner to win and claim "easy work".

                  I have never understood the big fuss over Mikey Garcia. I think a focused, and obsessed Adrien Broner can beat him! (Not because Broner is that good, but because i just don't think Mikey Garcia is a great fighter! he is good solid all round fighter! and Broner's style can sometimes expose them sort of fighters).
