    "About Boxing Episode 2" how can you hate?

    That's the most humble Broner's ever been, and even though he proceeded to get schooled by not showing up, clearly he's tired of being considered a failure in life.

    I never truly understood the hate sometimes. I actually think people form something against certain fighters on a personal level, when they REALLY don't know them the way they think they do.

    The joking and stuff like that I completely understand, this is the f*ucking internet everybody gets roasted for everything. But some of the things that I see people say is ridiculous to me.

    Broner went out this fight and fought better than he has in YEARS, but his lack of development as a fighter ever since he moved up to 147 due to the fame getting to his head didn't allow him to showcase the great fighter he can be had he been dedicated to boxing and training just as hard for his camps as he did for this one and actually made some progress as a fighter. He is the same Adrien Broner and for a person who possesses the potential that he does, it's a shame he's still the same. Years of his career have pretty much gone to waste and now he takes his 3rd loss and people have now lost any bit of hope they could've still had in him after that performance.

    If he really wants to gain some fans back, he needs to consistently train the way he did for his last fight in all of his future fights and actually show people something in terms of the development of the tools he possesses. Only an idiot will sit there and say Adrien doesn't have the tools. He just doesn't know how to use them properly and how to improve them, it also seems like there was a lack of a gameplan in his last fight. As if he's just a Floyd Mayweather or Andre Ward who can go into fights with no gameplan and adapt on the fly and create one mid fight. He doesn't have anywhere near that boxing/ring IQ to be able to do that. He's definitely got some dog in him and zero quit, doesn't fade down the line and actually picks it up near the end of the fight. But that's not enough to beat an ELITE fighter such as Mikey Garcia. Adrien should probably even consider changing trainers, someone who he's not as comfortable with who will be on his a*s.

      People form something against fighters on a personal level I think when that fighter crosses the line with his "staged personality" or whatever u wanna call it. Aside from the fact that he comes off corny and annoying he's also racist. So the natural reaction from fans towards him is the reaction he gets now. Adrian Broner is from the midwest, I grew up in New York now living in Cali I know southern dudes have a corny ass style followed by Midwest dudes so to me he's just another Midwest cornball.

          Then why is Ali considered the World's Greatest?

          It's a silly reasoning even if it is true. And yes, I know they "grew to love" Ali, but that's my point.

          I actually prefer and respect people who are out front and center about who they are (Floyd, Joe Frazier, George Foreman, Lord Jamar) than those who hide behind a facade but are really soft (Mosley, Cotto, Hamed, Charlemagne Tha God).

          The only thing I don't like about Broner is his inconsistency when it comes to lacing up the gloves.
