    He looks quality when he decides to let his hands go, which is rarely.

    I think he tries to be the fighter he'd like to be, rather than doing what works best for him.
    Yeap, exactly what I said with better words.

      Keep cashing out like he been doing. Fight and beat decent opponents then fight and lose against good ones. Give the guy credit tho only fights he was completely dominated was Porter and Garcia..And he was game vs Mikey

        He is still a big name, he just needs to take himself more seriously and get a great win. I don't think he is good enough at 147 especially with his current attitude. Even at 140 he doesn't seem like the guy that could take the division by storm.

          Just needs to fight. He still draws big ratings and from the crowd reaction at the last fight he is still polarizing.

          It appears that Broner is the modern day Gatti-draws crowds, can beat decent guys but will not beat a top tier HOF level opponent.

          I don't think he's ever going to be a p4p list guy anymore.

He'll continue to beat the Theophanes of the world but lose to anyone good
            yo will Caleb fight soon?

            Looks like he will have only fought a bum knee porky for 2018 and that's it, what a waste.

              Man he is pissing me off, gosh darn Al Haymon curse over here, dude has Plant sitting on the sidelines. I thought he was supposed to get the Uzi fight but now we see that isn't happening. I have no idea what that kid is doing but at this rate he is going to be fighting some cab driver as a tune up

                He needs to learn how to drive a semi rig and hit the road.

                  He is currently #2 by the WBC at 140 for some damn reason, I say stay at 140 go after Jose Ramirez...he could probably beat Jose Ramirez honestly and I like Jose but Jose is very flat footed and easy to Hit. Also Jose will come straight to him with relentless pressure so AB would be FORCED to let his hands go. If he can do that then he is BACK but again he gotta let his damn hands go!

                      Broner will never entertain like Gatti did.
