Y'all still this hyped up on a fighter who has beaten a bunch of tomato cans, two washed up former contenders (and nearly lost to one) and easily lost the biggest fight of his career? Broner got his *** beat by Maidana in an entertaining fight. He showed he has nothing at 147. That's why he's running down to 140, he doesn't want that rematch. The fact that anyone actually root for this clown **** boy is astonishing to me. He's ran from everyone of meaning from 135 to 147.
I used to be on Broner's hype, until his outside of the ring antics killed it but come on, man...
Dude has BEEN calling for the Maidana rematch, but obviously Maidana has parlayed that W into 2 fights with Floyd. He was given step aside money for the 1st fight. He also called out Khan, but Khan being a potential Floyd opponent GBP didn't want to risk the possibility of him looking bad again.
The whole ran from everybody thing is highly overblown. He dominated DeMarco, who at the time was considered the best at 135. And Burns for whatever reason kept pricing himself out. Crawford wasn't even a realistic possibility at the time. He jumped over 140 because anybody considered a worthy opponent at the time were all occupied.
Spadafora doesn't present a challenge AT ALL, but again...who at this time is a realistic opponent at 140? Garcia and Peterson are too busy fighting cans next month, Zab is just a name opponent at this point, Algieri has Manny next, Ruslan just fought...
who else is there?
