    Actually, they're not that caliber of fighters to give a fuck about. Broner is not now, Davis is not yet

      Broner is in the special class of entertainer.

      He's sort of like Joe Johnson to me in the NBA. He was always big, tall, athletic, had great physical tools but never at any point put them all together. Same with Broner. He just didn't want to be great. He wants to be fed attention. So in boxing i felt like he was brought up too quickly. If he had a guy in his corner who reached him like Virgil, he probably goes down as an ATG. Adrien doesn't lack skill or ability. To see him hurt Maidana and take the fight to Mikey in spots where Garcia looked like he knew for as capable as he was in being able to beat him, that AB was just an idiot who doesn't use his skill correctly.

      Tank i think is being brought up like Adrien but isn't making nearly the same amount of mistakes. I think Floyd brought up J'Leon cuz he knew he wasn't really special. Not that Tank is, but he can make noise if he gets more experience. I think he's a decent fighter, but it's always good to be able to bring another legitimate person into the division to help it make more noise.

        Don;t even know what to make of this thread.
        Who exactly is the one doing the "set up?"
        Who are you blaming for the Broner treatment?
