Comments Thread For: Adrien Broner Wants Marquez Clash, Talks Brandon Rios

[BoxingGenius27]

Doubt Bradley would weight drain himself to fight Adrien Broner.

Bradley just called Rios out at 140 and wants the fight. He'll make 140.

Rios can't beat Broner. He isn't strong enough.

I'm not sure broner is actually lickin his chops at the prospect of fighting one o the mot brilliant counter punching and all around ring tactician in jmm. Broner we be in one hell of a fight. Hey might even take a knee a one point in the later rounds

JMM is the fight that makes most sense for Broner right now. Win or lose against Pac, JMM offers enough name recognition to get Broner over to the mainstream attention that he covets.

We've already seen how JMM deals with Broner's style when he suffered the most lopsided loss of his career. There are differences in the way Broner and Mayweather employ the shoulder roll style. But in basic concept, they're the same. Broner is not quite as good as Mayweather defensively. But he's still gonna be tough for JMM to land on consistantly. JMM will be at a size and speed disadvantage. And unlike when he fought Mayweather, he'll be dealing with a young, fresh, aggressive fighter that's gonna be wanting to make a statement. JMM will have his moments. But I would fully expect Broner to have full control by mid-fight and eventually stop JMM in the latter rounds.

I watched broner demarco again last night, and the boy was simply sensational! Really mean it. On both ends of the fight. Broner is a real bruiser. Old school fighter. His aggression makes for great action. At his age I can only see room for improvement. Look, I'm Latino, and I'm saying that of all the young guys who are going to be here for a while this kid is the real goods. I'm not saying he'll beat this guy or that guy, but with that inside fighting he's going to make a fortune on Latino fighters.

Another thing, I'm Latino from NYC, my crew is made up of Latino and black guys, and we're boxing fans, get tether on the weekends and watch the fights. Some of my Spanish friends are turned off by broner's interviews... I always tell my boys, who cares what these guys say, they're fighters. What they do in the ring is what matters. That being said, from my style of fighter judgement, I love this kid as a fighter. Real special stuff. IMO, and its just my opinion, 140-54 has a real problem.

[bulldognyc]

Hitking... Jmm and finito Lopez are 2 of my fav fighters of all time for obvious reasons, but I'm kind of agreeing with on broner beating Marquez. I totally on what you said about difference in the application of the shoulder roll. But to me the perfect fight for broner is swift Garcia. IMO, in a perfect world for Oscar, Canelo beats cotto, stays undefeated by fighting so so guys while waiting for broner to make his way up, and turning that into a big time fight. Just my opinion fellas.

LW has already been cleaned out.

Guerrero, Marquez and Rios did it already.

Nothing left to see at 135; maybe Abril. That's about it. But if Broner spanks Abril, whoopty due. He won't be winning any awards. It would be a descent win on his resume, but nothing that will catapult him to P4P status.

I don't understand the rush. If Broner is planning to retire soon, then fine. If he's going to have a long career, why shouldn't he fight Burns/winner of Abril/Bogere/winner of Vasquez/Gesta?

[ElMeroChingon]

Lol, Let's not get carried away now.
