Comments Thread For: Adrien Broner, Michel Rivera In Advanced Talks For Feb. 13 Showtime Headliner

[Combat Talk Radio]

Inexperienced 135 guy who pressures, decent punch selection, alright power.
A focused broner should beat him though, rivera not difficult to read and will have a size disadvantage. So broner more likely to let his hands go.

A star will emerge Michael Rivera has very good footwork and has a lot of raw talent Adrien Broner consistently shows that he craps in the bed.. hopefully he retires after he gets beat by the prospect, AB would be a funny commentator

Interesting fight. Rivera is young & a bigger guy despite being a division down. Feel like he'll be fine at 140. Gotten a W over my man Memphis Miller recently. And he looks like he could be Tito Trinidad's love child. I definitely don't hate his chances vs a inactive, always at risk of being lackadaisical guy like Broner.

Obviously Rivera's management need to insist on a clause in the contract hereby Broner failing to make 140 results in a prohibitive financial penalty per ½lb - and reserve the right to not proceed if Broner is more than 1lb over.

Anyone could beat broner. All ya gotta do is chase him.
Demonstrated by mai Dana to brilliant effect.
And Garcia,Pac-Man,porter. He can’t cope with that, he backs away leaning to far over and it’s easy work he can’t throw with any power when he’s backing away that fast.
He’s a got a quick left hook that’s usually always very badly timed and been successful against one elite opponent that is Shawn porter and it never hurt him. Plus, the fool needs his mouth sewing up, he sounds like a girl.

Broner does good numbers

That's when he was active though. And before he lost that fight for the hood to Manny

Yessir....

This kid is good, if Broner doesnt take him seriously he can lose this. I like Riveras chances for the upset.

No way Broner accepts this fight. Rivera out volumes him and wins easy.
