U're Really MISSING the Boat on Broner, Brother Mex...He's a LIGHTHEARTED Dude w/a Sense of Humor...It's Actually FUNNY that he'd Come Up w/a "Free Money May" Shirt, when Dude Did LESS than 90 Days in COUNTY Jail... REED:l2:
I guess it's possible I am missing with Broner, dunno, this seems to be more a sycophantic act than tongue in cheek. But I guess a bit like me with Tszyu, occasionally you just take a massive dislike to someone on first sight. His face, personality, name, Floyd copycat style, pretty much everything rubs me the wrong way :: Also if there's one thing I hate it's being contrived. His whole personality seems like an act, none of it seems real. Fighting style too of course.
That's Fair... Some Fans Simply CAN'T Bring Themselves to Like Certain Guys & Some Fighters Do ALOT To Contribute to their Overall UNlikability; Case in Point, Floyd Mayweather... Broner's Blatant NUTRIDING of Floyd Understandably Makes him "Guilty" by Association to Some...REED Can't Recall a Current Fighter Being As Into ANOTHER Current Fighter to the Degree that Broner is to Floyd...Ali had his Copycats, Roy had his, & Every Other Mexican Fighter Still Tries to Be JC Superstar, but Broner has Embraced ALL Things Floyd to the Point of SURPASSING Most Copycats... REED Immediately DISliked Broner As Well, UNTIL he Saw Some Interviews...Broner has an Effortless CHARISMA about him & a Lighthearted, COMEDIC Based Vibe...When Floyd ATTEMPTS to Be Funny, his Yes Men Laugh on Command...Conversely, Broner Does & Says GENUINELY FUNNY Shit & he's CREATIVE w/It... Broner Might NEVER Amount to Even 1/10th the Fighter Floyd Mayweather is, but he's ALREADY Outdone Floyd in Terms of PERSONALITY, @ this Stage...Floyd was Somewhat RESERVED & PAINFUL to Listen to, @ a Similar Phase of his Career...It Wasn't Until 24/7 & the Cultivation of the "Money May" Image that Floyd Even REGISTERED as a Personality... Broner's ALREADY Ahead of him in that Regard, @ Least...He ISN'T Quite the Asshole that Floyd is...& Instead of Laughing AT People, as Floyd Does, Broner Looks to MAKE People Laugh... REED:dancingBaby:
Having missed page 2 I'm gonna give you the benefit & assume that proclamation's in reference to something:laughing:
Actually....I just watched a couple of (non post fight) interviews and he does seem allot less objectionable than I originally pegged him as being. He seems pretty cool.
Floyd's personality came out before 24/7, it was around the time of the Gatti fight. He found it unconscionable that a mediocre fighter like Gatti should be a major star and PPV force, when he, the best fighter in the world, was coming on as the B side in his first PPV. He also knew he had a stage to make a big splash on, and he fully took advantage of it - loud and brash at press conferences, flamboyant ring entrance, all the way to his actual performance in the fight, which was even more ridiculously and brutally one sided than most non-Gatti nuthuggers had anticipated. This was also around the time he proclaimed himself the greatest fighter ever and said Sugar Ray Leonard was only "good for his time" (relative to Floyd). 24/7 just gave him more of a forum for it, and the DLH fight (first 24/7 iirc) also made him wealthy enough and a big enough star to live up to the "Money" persona.
The thing with Floyd was by the time he started all that shit, he was ALREADY considered the best fighter in the world. Broner is still just a nobody fronting like he's somebody.
EVERYBODY was "Nobody" UNTIL they were "Somebody", Dude...INCLUDING Floyd Mayweather....In Terms of Personality, Broner's SMARTER, More CREATIVE & More CHARISMATIC than Floyd Could EVER Be... Has NATHAN to Do w/How Broner's BOXING Career will Play Out, but he's ALREADY Considerably MORE Interesting to Listen To, than "Money May's" EVER Been.... REED:mj:
I see my light come shinin' From the west down to the east Any day now, Any day now Floyd shall be released
Well, to be fair to Broner, Floyd does set a pretty high standard in that regard. Plus he has the advantage of it being in his DNA. Floyd's assholishness is like old money...inherited.
Not bad not bad :bears: There Once Was A Young Buck Named Floyd With His Opponent's He Constantly Toyed And While They Were Shitty, Or Spent.. He Compensated Via His Friend Fifty Cent Whom For Posterity He Nailed In The Void Manny Roy George Lenny Would Chant That This Homo Stuff Wasn't But Scant But They Recanted Soon Nuff And The Queens Called Their Bluff When The Menage Included Mer-Chant I Am Gay For Young Money May The Old Quivering Fuck Would Say He Reams Me Right Round And I Don't Make A Sound As $59.99 I To Him Gladly Pay So Larry, May And Fidd-E Were Exposed As Righteously Glee And As One Asshole Crumbled Why, In Jumped Black Gumble And Cosell Whimpered OH PLEASE WHY NOT ME!!!
Just read my poems and be happy you are in the presence of a true lyrical "genious". Dylan, Be he Bob or Thomas, couldn't hold his balls and make weird hand signals in the same room as me.:flip::scared2:

Now, normally, I would cat-of-9-tails your ass back into the field, but being that tonight is that special place you folk go once every 4 years, I will forget this intransigence and let you ball-grap and lope along about your business. Now go snatch a fucking chain.:dance:
the fellow doesn't live anywhere near Galway Even if he wasn't a Wicklow man, you could have picked a better Irish place name than that for your little joke Something that goes with Collins, at least, in the way Whitman goes with Wicklow. The Jackie Collins of Kerry, Clare, Killarney, Kilkenny, Carrickmacross, Kenmare, etc.
I used to think Irish was either very young or fairly old, as his cliched and embarrassingly hackneyed writing style is either reminiscent of a high school literary magazine contributor or a Readers Digest contributor (50 year old spinster).
