Rexx1240 Posted June 23, 2013 Share Posted June 23, 2013 (edited) So just for some possibilities/scenarios assuming Broner beats Maidana: Broner could face Maidana late Oct/early Nov. 1) Broner gets Garcia-Mattysse winner in April (or maybe Cinco de Mayo undercard if Floyd chooses that date for fight 3 of 6) 2) Broner gets Alexander-Khan winner in May/June (assuming the winner isn't penciled in for Floyd's next fight) 3) Judah/Mosely/Ortiz/Guerrero 4) GB and TR kiss & make-up then we get a laundry list of possibilities 5) ????...........

ksun247 Posted June 23, 2013 Share Posted June 23, 2013 #5 is go back down to 140 lbs and clean out the division. That would be another option, since he skipped that weight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DM72 Posted June 23, 2013 Share Posted June 23, 2013 I like the idea of Broner fighting the Matthysse/Garcia winner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BRAVEONTHEWARPATH93 Posted June 23, 2013 Share Posted June 23, 2013 Don't care about boxing but I saw the post-match interview. Broner is literally the slimiest pos I've ever laid eyes on. He worse than anyone in the WWE and it makes him and the sport look very, very bad. Talking about taking someone's girl?? How old are you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RonArtest15 Posted June 23, 2013 Share Posted June 23, 2013 Floyd - talks a big game, but backs it up in the ring. Broner - talks a big game, but not overly impressive in the ring. Dude needs to humble himself. Looks and sounds like a clown. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SiCkSoULjA Posted June 23, 2013 Share Posted June 23, 2013 Broner at 23 3 world championships and 27-0 with a awesome KO ratio. He's more offensive then Mayweather, his defense with the shoulder roll is second to Mayweather. Broner's footwork is questionable is the only thing I can say right now. He's accurate as hell almost to mayweathers level. At 23 has accomplished more than Mayweather. Broner will dominate the sport for the next 10 years and take the thrown when Mayweather retires. His character is out there and gets old at times he's trying to sell himself make his self a attraction. He does a little too much he needs to tone it down some.

First, you are seriously overrating Broner's defensive skills. He is not 2nd to Mayweather in the game right now (Rigondeuax is 2nd to Mayweather IMO). His defense is good, but I wouldn't call it great yet. Second, Broner is nowhere near as accomplished as Mayweather was at 23. At 23, Mayweather's resume had far greater names than Antonio DeMarco & Paulie Malignaggi. Before Mayweather turned 24, he dominated Genaro Hernandez (hall of famer) & Chico Coralles (future hall of famer). Back then, there was a greater emphasis on actually defending your belt, Mayweather defended his title 8 times against good competition before moving up. That is a more important accomplishment than Broner skipping harder fights at 140 to take an alphabet belt that nobody gives a damn about from Malignaggi. Broner is a great talent, but pump the brakes on comparing his resume to Floyds at 23 years old. Edited June 24, 2013 by StillUnknown Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SiCkSoULjA Posted June 24, 2013 Share Posted June 24, 2013 I forgot just how young Mayweather was there so I stand corrected. Riggo is good no one really heard of him until he beat Donair who IMO is overrated. I think Broner has better D. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeWolf990 Posted June 25, 2013 Share Posted June 25, 2013 People knew of Riggo before he beat Donaire, at least among boxing fans. Broner's defense isnt Floyd level with defending but I feel he getting harsh shtick considering he moved up 2 weight classes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Riggo is good no one really heard of him until he beat Donair who IMO is overrated. I think Broner has better D. I have been a HUGE rigondeuax fan even before the Donaire fight. Actually, I won a lot of money on that fight. I've always felt Donaire was a little overrated... and he got thoroughly exposed by Rogondeuax. When it comes to defense, Broner allows far too much punishment to his body. Head movement is great but he still gets hit a lot to even mention him in the same category as Floyd. If I had to pick a second, Rigondeuax would definitely be next on the list. Honestly, I'm not ready to say that Broner even has better defensive abilities than Juan Manuel Marquez so far in his career as yet.

He moved up 2 weight classes, but he fought arguably the smallest fighter & definitely lightest puncher (of those who are remotely revelant) in the division. I'm not saying that he needed to fight the best WW not named Floyd, but there were better challenges for him at 140 & 147 than Malignaggi. His fights do good numbers though, I read somewhere earlier that he has the 2 highest rated fights on HBO/Showtime this year.

Rexx1240 Posted June 27, 2013 Share Posted June 27, 2013 Adrien Broner: "I don't want to have to be the guy to give Mayweather his first loss" This is only a 3min excerpt from a long interview Broner gave after a sparring session just before the Malignaggi fight. Really don't know if to take him serious or just laugh. The full interview is just as telling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StillUnknown Posted June 30, 2013 Share Posted June 30, 2013 (edited) Gennady Golovkin vs. Matthew Macklin on HBO tonight Golovkin is one to watch, one of the bigger punchers in boxing. Finally taking a reasonable step up in comp against Macklin. Macklin is good, but he's hittable. If you're hittable against Golovkin, you're probably going to be hurt. Golovkin has some flaws, but I don't think Macklin is the one to expose them. Edited June 30, 2013 by StillUnknown Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cuello would've dropped him in the 10th. I hate it when matches end like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rexx1240 Posted June 30, 2013 Share Posted June 30, 2013 (edited) Dangerous fight for anybody between 160-168 not named Andre Ward. can't imagine how that body shot must've felt Golovkin is a damn savage, that power is scary. 160 is thin, only an aging Sergio & Kid Chocolate to deal with, Golovkin could rule for a while. GGG can beat Quillin and Sergio. Sadly he will have to step up to 68 before he's actually ready. Which could spell trouble. They'll toss him a confidence booster like Kessler or Bute then feed him to the wolves against Ward. Golovkin stays active which is always a plus to keep his skills sharp and he's only getting better. Since Sergio is rehabbing injuries, I wounder who his next opponent will be. I'll be he fights again this year, probably in the fall. Edited June 30, 2013 by T-REX1240 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
