    I remember Ohara saying that he remembers getting boo'd for nothing and then just ran with the villian role. I mean, his tweets causing him to get pulled from the card was ill-judged and insensitive but otherwise i find his trash talking (i.e giving it back to the Liverpool crowd who weren't saints) hilarious. It's good for boxers to have some kind of personality but don't overdo it and get personal.

      And the journey to portray him as a good guy begins.

      On Skysports frontpage too. Matchroom will do anything.

        Nah ... Broner is even more of a thug in his day to day life than he is when promoting fights!

        How many times has he been arrested by the police now?

        AB is a bona fide G!

          I never thought of that, but yeah, you are probably correct there.

          Davies said Hearn was going to work with the Sun to promote one of his fights. Fast Eddie wouldn't have appreciated that.

            By G do you mean goon or gimp? They're the only things that come to mind when Broner gets brought up.

              He might be a goon as well, but I meant he's a gangster.

              Not a mafia type gangster, but a guy who hangs around bars, nightclubs and bowling alleys, with a gang of buddies, getting in fights and beating people up over gamblng debts type gangster.

                  Davies is just a bit dim, that's all. Extremely unintelligent actually.

                  I don't think he has any real malice in what he says though, i just think he thinks it's all trash talk and isn't intelligent enough to know when it's beyond the norm.

                      I can see why people go down the 'villain' route in 2018. It can sell. But you need more to your game than just that. Plus, you need to be good at it. His trash talk is terrible.

                      He annoyed people so they wanted to see him lose. Taylor handed him his arse and he quit, now people don't care about him enough anymore for him to be relevant.
