    The rise and fall of Adrien Broner.

    Wasted talent or exposed hype?

    Is it too late for AB to make a comeback?

    He’s never been my cup of tea but I hate to see people waste their talent.

      Guy had talent but very little IQ and skills.

      Was only going to go so far with the tools he has.

      But I did overhype him myself and expected more from him. Until he fought Pauli, from that fight I could see his potential was limited.

        Yeah I jumped off the hype train after the Paulie fight. He should have never jumped up to 147.

          Hype. I don't care if he held titles in multiple divisions, he had too many non competitive, embarrassing fights.

            I agree, Broner is a very naturally talented fighter, but that only takes you so far. He doesn't have the temperament or the dedication.

              He bought way too much into the Mayweather playboy gimmick. I always remember seeing the buildup to the Maidana fight, think he was on tour with some rappers or something, he was hugely overweight, constantly partying, what was he doing man?

                I feel sorry for him. Imaging having to isolate with AB.

                  Mayweather trained like a beast though, he had both the talent and the dedication and that's why he's a legend.

                    He was totally convinced he was the next Floyd
                    Just without the work and dedication
