by Fionnlough: Some people hate Adrien Broner (27-1, 22 KO’s), because he is loud mouthed. And so his loss to Marcos Maidana (35-3, 31 KO’s) last night by a 12 round unanimous decision in San Antonio, Texas has been particularly satisfying for many boxing fans. I enjoy watching Broner, I will put that out there, but will still try to be fair in this article.
We learnt (confirmed for some) that the cockiness that made Broner a star on TV is also a weakness
Many will say this is an excuse, but Broner has fallen victim to success.
