Comments Thread For: Broner-Santiago Contract Weight Changed To Welterweight Limit Of 147 Pounds

[Bronx2245]

Broner's dilemma: Too undisciplined to make 140, not enough power to be successful @ 147!

[ELPacman]

That's lame. Another sleezy political move in boxing. Don't tell the public the truth, the casuals will have no idea. Broner going to be a monster in there (size wise) and blow away Santiago and the casuals are going to be like, OMG HE'S BACK! HE CAN KO ANTHONY JOSHUA!!!! AAAH!!!!!

Yet, only for the fortunate few that follow the news and politics of boxing will know, this POS probably weighed like 148lbs and still had to lose 1lb to hit 147lbs. Meanwhile Santiago was probably 139lbs... It's really crappy and again shows how ugly of a sport boxing can be.

Wonder how he will look on the scales, lean or chub

Its crazy how no one calls him out on it. But if gb or tr fed a bunch of black taxi drivers to their latino/European fighters they would be crying nonstop

Exactly. Been said the same thing. The messed up thing about it is that it's so blantantly obvious, he doesn't even try to hide it. He just looks for a Hispanic guy with a pretty record to gloss over it. He does nothing to advance the careers of anybody at PBC that is not black and that's the truth.

Brian Castano, David Benavidez, Alfredo Angulo, Sergiy Derevyanchenko, Brandon Figueroa, Sebastian Fundora, Danny Garcia, Krzysztof Glowacki, Tomoki Kameda, Adam Kownacki, Sergey Lipinets, Josesito Lopez, Leo Santa Cruz, Luis Nery, Caleb Plant, Andy Ruiz.

I'm actually tired of typing. There's a lot more.

I don't even care about Haymon, because I know he's doing the same as Arum, Hearn and the others. But saying he only supports black fighters is asinine. Why would he neglect the latino contingent when they're heavily into boxing? lol. He hates money?

broner is trash


lmao he was bragging about how much weight he lost and how he is so slim now and all this chit


right before the fight, changes the weight class of the fight, ***s over his opponent who was training all this time to make 140

Broner is 4-4-1 against world champion opposition and his last win against a champion was Paulie Malinaggi by SD in 2013.

Definitely the most fraudulent four division champion in boxing history. Look at the other names on this list. Broner is a disgrace to all of them:
Tommy Hearns
Sugar Ray Leonard
Roberto Duran
Pernell Whitaker
Oscar De La Hoya
Leo Gamez
Roy Jones Jr
Floyd Mayweather Jr
Manny Pacquiao
Erik Morales
Jorge Arce
Juan Manuel Marquez
Nonito Donaire
Miguel Cotto
Roman "Chocolatito" Gonzalez
Mikey Garcia
Donnie Nietes
Kazuto Ioka
Leo Santa Cruz
Saul "Canelo" Alvarez

20 of the greatest fighters of my lifetime... and Adrien Broner.

His title history is pathetic, hand selected fights by promoters:


135 - Demarco who was stopped by Valero but able to pick up valero's vacant title after his death

147 - wba from paulie malinaggi who beat some random ukranian potato farmer who seems to have gotten the title as a vacancy from yet another ukranian potato farmer. lost in his first defense to maidana

130 - vacant wbo title for beating a hairy argentinian lyft driver

140 - vacant wba for beating molina




half of his titles were directly vacant, the other half were recent vacancies

[Sctrojan]

What a sleazy move by Broner and PBC,hopefully Santiago was well compensated for Broners continual lack of professionalism.

Putting a gag order on the opponent from talking about this.

The lack of transparency with PBC lately is starting to piss me off.
