Looks like a bunch of competitive fights here. Wish I had ordered this!!!!
Broner walking out yet?
Sparring session for Broner. Nice and easy. Nothing coming back. Would be good if Broner was preparing for a fight next week. Hutchinson’s arm punches were an insult to arms.
This was a PPV. Just think of that for a moment. Washed-up Broner slapping around a lawyer for ten rounds, couldn’t even stop him. Broner is so pedestrian now, his technique was flat every minute of every round.
Broner has had many “comeback” fights in a row now. I wonder how many years or decades you can be a comeback without having properly elevated your career. We all know his “4 weight” titlist is the least impressive in possibly 20-30 years with that stat. I counted 1 good title defense he had. Everyone else were nobodies. People think Broner was also legit because he fought some legit names. Just not in their primes, and some names he lost against. The press conference was pretty funny/entertaining. A lot of delusion.
Broner wins a decision against a glorified weekend warrior, then calls for a champion fight. Absolutely absurd.
That’s not fair to Hutchinson. The guy has a 20-3 record. That’s hardly a weekend warrior.
Agree…MC…. Hutchinson is a warrior..speaking from personal experience…I know how tough the road is to becoming a licensed Attorney.passing a state bar…because…I am an Attorney..I passed two state bars..also I know how tough it is to train as a fighter …trained with amateurs and pros..because I am a “gym rat” but never have I stepped in the ring with ” 4 weight” Titleist or had a professional boxing match …then the accomplishment of going the distance….Hutchinson is living the American dream …a remarkable achievement…Kudos to Broner for giving this “warrior” a chance…cause you don’t play boxing..Congrats to all…Heard a funny story about Duran once sparring with an attorney and Duran knocked the snot out him..not taking it easy at all…Funny!!!!.
Rolly is “champ” …absurdier..
Congrats Broner….wishing you the best…please be professional with this artform…this wonderful gladiator sport…learn from mistakes..make the best of this opportunity…focus…
