    Broner telling his corner to calm the fuck down was a classic moment.

    Broner has serious mental problems.

    BTW - what AB considers "rich" is below his OWN hype.

    This is a guy who calls himself "About Billions".

    About Billions? You just made 2.5 million, you jackass. That's your highest purse ever.

    Sure, that's astronomical pay for us average Joe's with regular jobs, but you don't make shit by major athlete standards.

    A guy like Tiger Woods, or Michael Jordan could piss away 2.5 million today and still sleep like a baby tonight, cause it won't affect them.

    AB loses 2.5 million today, and he's broke.

    Broner is the classic small minded individual that feels the need to maintain that image of the cool, big balling celebrity.

    It’s because of this that I don’t want to see him continue to get opportunities. He’s basically showing up to lose and collect a check.

    I just got around to watching this fight and I can actually see how Broner may have thought he won. It was like he said, much of the fight it didn’t look like Pacquiao was hitting him cleanly. There were a few times where PAC cornered and unloaded big flurries on a helpless Broner and PAC would occasionally land a big shot on Broner but for the most part and especially early in the fight PAC looked sloppy and off balance and wasn’t really landing cleanly on Broner. I actually thought Broner did a pretty good job catching PAC coming in while eluding/running from PAC’s punches.

    I’m not saying I thought Broner won, but I can see a case where he believes he won because he rightfully felt he eluded a lot of Pacs punches and caught PAC with a lot more clean punches. The problem was he just didn’t do it enough and it was mostly in the first half of the fight. By the second half PAC was matching Broner in clean punches and was also landing way more sloppy punches due to being busier.

    I can even see how AB got 4 rounds from the judges which definitely came in the early rounds. Don’t get me wrong Broner lost the fight and he kind of sucks overall but I don’t think he gave the embarrassing account of himself here that everyone has been saying. On the other hand Paquiao is 40 fucking years old lol.
