Broner: Malignaggi is not at my level

YouTube video
By Eric Thomas: Adrien Broner (26-0, 22 KO’s) seemed to really get under WBA welterweight champion Paulie Malignaggi’s skin during their press conference last Saturday at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas, Nevada to build interest in their June 22nd fight next month at the Barclays Center, in Brooklyn, New York, USA.

Broner said after the press conference: “He’s [Malignaggi] like a female who wears her feelings on her sleeves. He’s upset; he’s hurt. He’s going to go send threatening messages to Jess. He feels like I’m a 130 pounder, 135 pounder, but you saw when we were shoulder to shoulder, he’s little. He’s not at my level.”

Broner: Floyd took my easy work [Guerrero]

broner33By Eric Thomas: WBC lightweight champion Adrien Broner sounded a little disappointed last night after watching his good friend WBC welterweight champion Floyd Mayweather Jr. (44-0, 26KO’s) ad his 44th win of his career in beating Robert “The Ghost” Guerrero (31-2-1, 18 KO’s) in a 12 round unanimous decision victory in Las Vegas, Nevada.

Broner and Guerrero already had bad blood between them, and Broner was counting on getting the chance to expose Guerrero and get a nice little payday in doing so. The two fighters had a twitter war going on last year, and Guerrero got in Broner’s face when the two fighters met up outside the ring at a function.

golovkin1By Onaps: Boxing fans are like classical music lovers to MMA’s headbangers ball, and as a boxing fan, these hard headed promoters needs to realize that some classic music needs to be made amongst each other.

All boxing fans deserve the best fights to be made. So, I am comprising a list of the top 10 fights that boxing fans news to see

10). André Ward vs. Bernard Hopkin: This is a classic, passing of the torch fight. Hopkins is the only challenge near his weight beside possibly André Dirrell (who needs to get active before his prime passes him by). I don’t see Ward losing to B-Hop, although it would be an interesting contest.

Broner and Malignaggi verbally spar at Judah-Garcia weigh-in

Broner: Malignaggi won’t be helped fighting at home in New York

broner545By Allan Fox: WBC lightweight champion Adrien Broner (26-0, 22 KO’s) will be moving up in weight two divisions on June 22nd to fight WBA World welterweight champion Paulie Malignaggi (32-4, 7 KO’s) in Malignaggi’s own hometown in Brooklyn, New York at the Barclays Center.

Broner isn’t bothered at all that he’ll be fighting in front of a large pro-Malignaggi audience on June 22nd when he ventures into the Barclays Center. Broner sees his own talent being more than enough for him to get either a KO or a lopsided 12 round unanimous decision victory in this fight.

Broner said: “I don’t care where the fight is. I’ll fight him in a closet, his backyard, my backyard, the Barclays Center, at a barbecue. It don’t really matter to me. Being in his hometown ain’t gonna help him when I start beating his a**.”

Khan v Broner: The best fight at 140

broner874By Stevie Ocallaghan: I read an article from another writer on this site about British fighter Amir Khan and the possibility of him taking on soon to be 3 weight world champ Adrien Broner.

First of all I would like to commend our esteemed friend for his first non Brit bash article and secondly for bringing up this story as it would be a superb match up.

The talk , if this fight is made will be about whether Amir Khans chin will hold out against the big punching Broner. Let’s look at facts. When Khan got ko’ed in the first round off Breidis Prescott, he was caught  with a punch that could have taken out many a larger fighter. Okay, Khan should have been smarter and avoided it but even the best get put down. Prescott had just beaten Richard Abril in his previous fight.

Khan interested in facing Adrien Broner at 147

khan5By Scott Gilfoid: Former IBF/WBA light welterweight champion Amir Khan (27-3, 19 KO’s) says he’d like to face Adrien Broner (26-0, 22 KO’s) at welterweight once Khan moves up in weight in the future. Broner is moving up two divisions to face WBA World welterweight champion Paulie Malignaggi on June 22nd to fight him for his title in Brooklyn, New York. Khan expects Broner to win that fight due to his power advantage.

Khan said this to RingTV about Broner’s fight with Malignaggi as well as the thought of facing him in the future: “He [Broner] knows he won’t absorb a lot of punishment though because Paulie isn’t a big hitter, but if he stays at welterweight that could be a superb fight [against himself] down the road.”

De La Hoya said to Fighthype.com “Don’t underestimate him [Malignaggi]. What’s exciting is that if it goes well [and Broner wins]…he goes back down to 140. He’s in the mix down there.”
