Chavez Jr. vs. Vera pushed to 173 pound catchweight

Apparently TV ratings were very strong.

 

Vera beat Chavez Jr and it wasn't that close.

 

:bears:

 

Both are annoying for different reasons.

One is a spoiled brat with a name and some talent but no desire to do anything with it.

The other is superb talent as well but makes his name of being a Mayweather wanna be and he's just WAY TOO OVER THE TOP... To the point where it's just corny... Broner coming out with Waka Flaka Fag and making videos on Twitter about his money make him even WORSE than Chavez Jr I think.

If I had a choice to see one of them KO'd, I'd pick Broner in a heart beat.

 

Superb talent? Is this the same guy that just had a close fight with Maligaggi?

He's a decent talent, nothing more. I reckon Garcia and Lucas would both beat him down, and I'm not even sure I'd consider them superb talents.

But I do agree with you Broner would be the one guy in the whole sport I'd rather see khtfo than anyone else.

 

You guys don't like when Broner brushes his barely there hair?

 

In all fairness he is actually a talented guy. Quick hands, good power, athletic, decent reflexes...

He just doesn't have the ring IQ that the likes of Mayweather has. In fact, Danny Garcia has a superior ring IQ to Broner even though he isn't as naturally gifted in some areas, which is why I agree Garcia beats him.

Zab Judah is a classic example of a supreme talent who just didn't know how to use it.

 

I agree Danny has superior IQ. In fact one of the reasons Danny is on such a roll right now is great ringsmarts, he just knows how to fight and knows what he's doing in there. Good at reading his opponents too.

I also agree Zab was supremely talented for sure. VERY quick hands, excellent power, great reflexes and mobility.

Broner? I see a guy with fast hands and decent power, nothing more. He's not even that athletic. He's flat footed, not light on his feet at all, he doesn't have great workrate or stamina, and his power is nothing special either.

 

I agree completely, I just don't see it with Broner. He's alright. Supreme talent? Nope.

Lil Gary is a far better prospect IMO.

 

Gary Russell is a great talent but he needs to step up and fight someone already.

I think Terence Crawford is a superior talent to Broner as well, plus he has the ring IQ.

 

A young Zab would've flattened Broner. He'd probably give him a fight now, even.
