    Do you even realize the potential?

      He won two rounds, 4 at the absolute most if you're being extremely generous.

      His gameplan was fucking terrible and he had no plan B. It was exactly like Guerrero-Berto. I don't know what the fuck he's doing in there, but someone needs to tell him that he's very easy to hit.... he's Shane Mosley, not Floyd Mayweather, and he needs to start fighting like it.

      He needs an offense minded trainer like Freddie Roach.

        Much potential... Dust in the wind...

          That's the best I could do for Broner being as generous as I can. He might have barely won those two rounds but I didn't think the other 10 rounds were even close. But everybody scores fights differently. Jacobs thought Broner won. How anybody could think Broner won is a mystery to me. This was a great, dominant win for Mikey. Broner should have tried harder and done more punching and less running.

            It's beyond me how little effort Broner showed, in the last 3-4 rounds. Why didn't he press a KO? It seriously looks like he can ****, when he finally throws a combination. I believe that he could've KO'd Mikey Garcia, had he pressured him hard from round 1. Seems like when he touched him Garcia was kinda surprised.

              A case could be made for 12-0 for Mikey as well.

                Both times I had the same score. Broner won rounds 1 and round 9. All other rounds Garcia won by a margin.

                Those who gave Broner any other round, please explain how in hell you came to that conclusion.

                Broner was mostly on the backfoot, and by the ropes. How he even dares to claim that Mikey was running away from him, I do not know!

                Anyway that's that. Mikey Garcia schooled Broner in that fight. It wasn't a beating, but it certainly was a boxing lesson.
                Agreed. Broner didn't win more than 3 rounds Sat night and that is being generous IMO.

                  Same, i give him 1 and 9. Round 1 could have gone either way really.

                    Agreed.

                    He's just not skilled enough to fight in the style he does and gets hit too much. I can't see how he's ever going to move away from it though. Broner is at his best when he actually lets his hands go, he looks impressive then, he's tough too.

                    It seems he tries to fight like Floyd or be slick because he wants to be see as that kind of fighter, not because it actually comes natural to him.

                      I gave him the 9th as well. He stepped it up in the last 30 seconds and actually landed some shots. The 10th was relatively close as well, but Mikey put the fire out in the 11th. Possibly Broner had nothing left at that stage either.

                      Is it not clear to everyone by now that Broner can only live with top level guys by walking forwards with his gloves up. He's as stiff as ****. Is there any chance he's German?
