    Let’s be honest with ourselves broner still far from finished.

    Broner is going to take a soft touch fight next then he will take a fight that everyone thinks he has no chance in winning and one way or the other you will tune in.

    I was at the weigh in and at the fight but love him or hate him broner brings out passion from people good or bad.

    Say what you want about him but he does fight good competition and does not duck fighters. I can see broner getting a Danny Garcia or a Thurman fight in his near future. All the top guys will want to fight him because he is seen as beatable with a name.

    so until he gets KTFO broner will still be around getting good money.

      He’ll get another good payday. I think he’ll need to win one or two fights first though. He’ll probably fight washed PBC fighters like Ortiz or Guerrero then get a shot at Spence/Porter/Thurman.

      I wouldn’t mind seeing DSG-Broner, that would be a good crossroads fight

        I think he can do great things at 140 but does he want to cut weight like that is the problem.

            He's the Zab Judah of this generation.


            His beatdowns haven't even been entertaining or interesting since Maidana anyhow. I really don't care to see him at the elite level again but against B level guys he can make some interesting fights.

              As a boxing fan, of course I will tune in, but I could go with out seeing him again. I believe most casuals are going to start to feel that way as well. I one thing is losing, another is losing in a boring fight where you don't even through punches. People want to see action. Broner hasn't provided that for a while.

                he can still have a decent career if he's honest to himself.. he's not gonna be an ATG, just settle for what you are capable of. start fighting b-c level guys. he will not be the next floyd. so he can throw that out the window and just be happy for who he is and the skills he has. with broner, he was trying to do what he wasnt capable of (and im not saying he shouldnt believe in himself, but there comes a time when you have to be honest with yourself)

                  He's become a harder sell. But due to his name, he'll get some good "B side" offers. He won't win any of them though. It's downhill career and money wise for him. And head trauma does add up.

                    Thing is, broner seems to be transitioning more into instagram personality territory. Boxing is his platform, just look at how many videos were made on social media regarding his post fight interview. In this generation you don't have to be good at what you do, as long as you have catchy content for the ADHD riddled viewers you're good and AB realises this.
