Comments Thread For: Adrien Broner Returns, Wins Tough Decision Over Jovanie Santiago

[Rip Chudd]

The announcers were ignoring anything broner did and giving credit to santiago for things he wasnt even doing. Broner was blocking or avoiding most of santiago's attacks. The announcers were blind/disgusting tonight

Are you serious? The were trying to give Broner credit for anything but he wasn't doing anything. Mares was just trying his hardest to give Broner props as was Farhood but you can't polish a turd. Broner just isn't good.

For an organization that doesn’t give “af” about Latino fighters they sure do have a lot of them. 60 to be exact.

Yeah thats why they get used as stepping stones. Thats why they always use a latino cab driver to be a ko highlight for their black fighters. Who tf are these 60 fighters? I only know about 5 that they actually have on televised cards

Broner really lose the whole fight? I don't have showtime

Santiago won 7 rounds pretty clearly...rest were all debatable but he could have won more.

Ridiculous Outcome! A Complete Robbery!

What are you people seeing? Santiago outlanded him 11 out of 12 rounds with one of the rounds 6-6. He 2-1 threw more punches as well! He outlanded Broner over 2-1 and out jabbed him over 2-1 as well. He threw and landed over 2-1 Power Punches as Well. This was complete domination! Bernstein kept saying he hopes the judges give Santiago credit for his body punches! I have never heard ANY ANNOUNCER EVER say that! SINCE WHEN DOESN'T A FIGHTER GET CREDIT FOR BODY PUNCHES???? This whole telecast was ludicrous! The Showtime crew would usually call this an outrage but this time just want along with it all! Maybe Broner had several impressive flurries and punches but to be out-punched every single round (tied on the one), there is no fight that I remember the fighter with the fewer punches (in every round) won; Not being out punched in every round by large margins! I feel sorry for people who bet on Santiago which I almost did. I knew Broner was a bum and he proved it in this fight!

[Skary Larry 1]

Oh I forgot: To give the wrong winner winning by ridiculous margins needs to be investigated! 117-10...116-111 and 115-112???? These were scores Santiago should have received.

Adrien what an ass Broner

This kid has to be one of the luckiest in the world because had he been living in Michigan he would have been in a morgue.

I see Broner as a name opponent for the elite guys who need to look good, for a future title shot, or title defense.

He can cash in a lotto check at 147 with Spence, Thurman, Danny Garcia (who he could actually beat), Crawford...he could be a gate keeper for Jamal James and Lipinets.

140, only lotto check I see there is Jose Ramirez, who would easily outwork Broner. A lot of gatekeeper matchups like Regis Prograis. A name title defense for Josh Taylor.

Coming up from 135 to fight Broner...the lotto check is Teifimo Lopez. The gatekeeper bouts are Devin Haney and Fortuna. He's friends with Gervonta, eliminating that.

147 against Khan.

That's a 50/50 fight.

Anything else is just pointless because both guys are never going to win a title again or beat an elite WW.
