I agree totally, only reason I have mikey is bc broners activity rate is woefully low. He can be outworked and if he fights like he did v granados he will not win.
But I do believe broner will touch Mikey and how he responds will dictate how the fight goes.

I can't stand broner and I hope Mikey beats the p1ss out of him.
Having said that, I think broners overall size, strength, punching power, speed and toughness will give mikey a lot of problems in this fight. Broners only been beaten by bigger, swarming type of guys which Mikey isn't. Even in his losses he never stopped trying and actually had some good moments of his own. If broner can drop an iron chinned Porter, he can definitely hurt Mikey as well.
Ultimately, I think Mikeys overall ring iq, precision, counter punching, activity, and power should get him the win. But broner is a live dog no question about it

i think he made a calculated risk but may have picked off more than he can chew
Broner has only lost to larger, swarmers....not smaller, technical boxers who fight at a deliberate pace
Broner is bigger, stronger, hits harder, has faster hands and a great chin
I saw no picking Broner to win...not one when i scrolled through the forum....why? do some of you really want to see him lose that bad that you are not realistic about his talent
i dont let personality traits or out of ring things blind my judgement of talent
This wont be a cake walk for either fighter but many are selling broner short or simply want to see him KTFO

Not one to flame race baiting conversations, but I just thought to myself "damn I never saw Mikey fight a slick fighter. Mikey never fought a slick fighter or a black fighter. I don't know about Mikey's inside game and Broner will test it for the first time in his pro career in this style. Hopefully he lets his hands go.

The motivation to win this fight is HUGE for both AB and Mikey. It all depends on who is more motivated and who is more ready come fight night.
I give the edge to Mikey because he has the better corner and IMHO, Mikey is more intelligent in and out of the ring. AB is all about that shock value and hyping himself. I am not saying he is not serious about his craft, but I don't think he is 100% all about the fight game.
Again, the motivation is crazy high to win this high-profile fight. Maybe AB gets real with his training, his head and leaves the hyping to the promoters? I know Mikey's corner will have Mikey ready to fight. Mikey is the consummate pro, so his motivation to win will always be there.
I have a feeling it will be a good scrap. I ain't betting on this one. I will not be surprised if either man wins.
Great Post, OP!

Speaking of females, you know you're the only female here. Chicks are more likely start stuff online only. You're probably some timid, soft spoken little b*tch who has a platform to be tough on the internet!

Broner has damaged his body with weight ballooning and alcohol abuse. The Broner that beat Demarco would give Mikey a hell of a fight possibly even winning but that guy is long gone. I don't think he can cut down to 140 without it heavily draining him also.
