    I think Broner is an excellent fighter, although still unproven somewhat. The weight thing is a cuntish thing to do however, regardless of the disparity in skill.

    Yep. As I say, I will forgive it if he genuinely couldn't make the weight, but my guess is we see him at 130 again.

    I doubt it. He looks to be a full lightweight at least. He is a cunt of the second highest order for sure. Making weight, or not making weight, happens. It is part of the sport. Fighters need to be punished for not discussing this beforehand. If you are 10 pounds over and are in complete shape already, you need to tell the other party so at least the other guy can not drain himself. Broner acted like a cunt.

    Irish you are missing the point too. He probably did really struggle to make the weight, and won't ever fight at 130 again, but the point is he should have told the opposing camp a week or two before, hold the fight at lightweight in order to even the playing field and not make his opponent drain himself more than him - as per Chico Vs Castillo 2 and Funeka Vs Guzman 2.

    :bears::bears: Certainly, there is a class of Sargent Cunt First Class, cunts in this world like Osama Bin Laden and George W. Bush. Broner is your garden variety 2nd class cunt.

    Nice in theory, but I think most fighters believe they will be able to make weight right up until maybe 8 hours before the weigh-in when they've been sitting in a sauna for an hour, not sweating, feeling like they are about to die, and still are heavy by 5 lbs.

    The science/skill behind weight cutting has progressed tremendously since the 80's and 90's. Not only are the guys able to cut more weight, they are able to withstand or avoid the negative effects. Whether this is through transfusions or whatever, I don't know, but I think it is a key reason that boxing deaths have become so uncommon today as even compared to 10 years ago.

    Look, if you Jennifer Lopez has her ass in your face and you are only rocking 4", then you know that's it, thats your lot. If some fugly is in your face and you are rocking 4" you can always pretend it is the bitches fault and that you actually have another inch or two in there somewhere.

    These guys are down to the wire. They know when they have an extra lb left in them, and when they don't. MWS is right, Broner was rocking 4" and he should have called the other camp and said so.

    I highly doubt we'll see him at 130 again.

    Nevermind the weight, there's zero money to be made at 130.

    My guess is he stays at 135 for about a year, and by time he's like 24 he'll be moving up to 140, which is probably his natural weight.

    I once again must credit Broner for his gf though. She's sexy as all Hell.

    Wow! REED would expect Durans biggest fan to KNOW his history. Ask Ray Leonards sister and ex wife about how CUNTY Duran could be. Making lewd comments at them, grabbing his Nutsack in their faces and even SPITTING at them, all during PRE fight shit, dude.

    Duran was a dirty fucker.

    He laced Moore. Put his gloves on his face and laced him.

    He kneed Buchanan in the balls.

    And then Duran turned around and said that DeJesus used "Obscene language towards me". :lol:

    He also dropped his drawers, clasped his jewels and said "Cuevas can suck my penis" to a Cuevas fan who was heckling him. Duran was filthy in every sense of the word and I am glad for what Hearns did to him.

    Of course - it's an amazing performance. If by cheating you mean Duran gave him an unnecessarily brutal beating, then sure, Duran cheated :kidcool:

    He INTENTIONALLY THUMBED Moore as well, early in that fight.

    Hold on......even the commentators could be heard to note how Duran was lacing the guy.

    Right at the end of the 7th.

    Yes- Moore had the same "thumbed eye" that Tito had versus Vargas and Norton had versus LeDoux.

    NO he can't...5 fights ago he was getting a gift decision vs. Ponce De Leon.

    HBO hype job REALLY WORKS.


    Don't get me wrong BRONER is what boxing needs, a fighter with charisma, some crossover appeal and he can fight a bit. He might dominate at 135 because there is nobody there...but at 140 with Rios, Matthysse, Maidana, Peterson, Khan, Alvarado, etc....etc...What he got away with at 130 fighting the smaller guys is not going to work against 140.

    This Incident Happened During a Public Workout, Where Quite a Few of those in Attendance were WOMEN, Dude...

    Seriously, U've Been On it for Daaaaaaaaays about how "Cunty" Broner is, when Thus Faaaaar, Duran is @ Least EQUAL to Broner in that Same Regard, if Not WORSE....

    ADMIT your HYPOCRISY, @ Least...

    The Difference is, the Thumbs WEREN'T Attached to the Side of the Gloves, when Duran & Moore Fought (or Norton-LeDoux, for that Matter)...If REED's Not Mistaken, it was a RIGHT JAB that Duran Threw @ Moore, w/the Thumb Fully Extended AWAY from the Glove, with the SOLE PURPOSE of Fucking Up his Eye, which it Did...

    MYTH...

    Definitely a BAD Performance from Broner, but let's NOT Pretend that Ponce was EXCEPTIONAL that Night, NOR Did he even Come Close to Whipping Broner's Ass or Anything...

    Ponce was Brought in as a Sacrificial Lamb & Actually Won by NOT Getting Destroyed, as Most Thought he Would....To Be Clear, that Fight had MORE to Do w/what Broner FAILED to Get Done, than ANYTHING Ponce Actually Did...

    Broner-Ponce is the Modern Day Cassius Clay-Doug Jones, in Terms of Being OVERBLOWN as Some Sort of "Robbery"...WATCH the Fight...Surely it's On Youtube by Now....

    Mex & Hut are 2 of REED's Absolute FAVORITE Posters (Honestly), but the Simple Truth is they're 100% INCAPABLE of Criticizing Roberto Duran, Under ANY Circumstances...If Tomorrow, Duran Went Out EDWIN VALERO Style, they'd APPLAUD his Stage Left Exit...
