Image: DeMarco: I can stop Adrien BronerBy Scott Gilfoid: WBC lightweight champion Antonio DeMarco (28-2-1, 21 KO’s) thinks he’s got the power and the skills to beat undefeated Adrien Broner (24-0, 20 KO’s) next month in their important HBO televised fight at the Boardwalk Hall, in Atlantic City, New Jersey, USA. DeMarco, 5’10”, thinks he has the power to hand the 23-year-old Broner his first loss of his four-year pro career.

DeMarco said to Fighthype.com “I have the capacity to stop Broner, mentally and physically…If he doesn’t make the weight, then there is no fight.”

Kellerman: Broner should be top 10 pound for pound if he dominates DeMarco

Image: Kellerman: Broner should be top 10 pound for pound if he dominates DeMarcoBy Scott Gilfoid: If Adrien Broner (24-0, 20 KO’s) can destroy WBC lightweight champion Antonio DeMarco (28-2-1, 21 KO’s) next month on November 17th, HBO’s Max Kellerman feels that the 23-year-old Broner will be ready to break the top 10 pound for pound lists in boxing. I completely agree with Kellerman. A great win over the tough as nails DeMarco should put Broner in the top 10, although I doubt that will happen.

Kellerman told Thaboxingvoice.com “If he [Broner] dominates DeMarco, that’s a real bold statement. To me, he jumps to the top ten on many pound for pound lists as many expect he will end up anyway.”

Kellerman: Broner is a bigger puncher than Mayweather

Image: Kellerman: Broner is a bigger puncher than MayweatherBy Scott Gilfoid: HBO expert analyst Max Kellerman sees former WBO super bantamweight champion Adrien Broner (24-0, 20 KO’s) as a bigger puncher than Floyd Mayweather Jr., but not quite as good as him defensively. Kellerman is able to see differences between the two talents, and doesn’t see Broner as a copy-cat clone of Floyd like a lot of boxing fans think.

Speaking to thaboxingvoice.com, Kellerman said “He’s [Broner] a good defensive fighter but not quite as good as Floyd. In actuality, he’s a better puncher than Mayweather and maybe a better puncher than I think he knows he is.”

Broner to take his career to the next level against DeMarco

by

By Scott Gilfoid: A nice win over WBC lightweight world champion Antonio DeMarco (28-2-1, 20 KO’s) will catapult unbeaten Adrien Broner (24-0, 20 KO’s) into super stardom in their fight on November 17th at the Boardwalk Hall in Atlantic City, New Jersey. This fight is what Broner needs to turn him into a regular HBO fighter to an HBO pay per view fighter where he’s getting the same kinds of cash that bigger stars like Floyd Mayweather Jr, Manny Pacquiao and Miguel Cotto are already enjoying.

Broner’s last fight against Vicente Escobedo brought in huge rating numbers for HBO last July, proving that Broner has the popularity to attracts fans in high numbers.

Broner interested in fighting Rios or Alvarado after he beats DeMarco next month

Image: Broner interested in fighting Rios or Alvarado after he beats DeMarco next monthBy Scott Gilfoid: Adrien Broner (24-0, 20 KO’s) doesn’t want to be constricted to the lightweight division after he destroys WBC lightweight champion Antonio DeMarco (28-2-1, 21 KO’s) next month on November 17th at the Boardwalk Hall, in Atlantic City, New Jersey, USA. Broner, 23, says he’s interested in fighting from lightweight all the way up to junior middleweight in order to get the biggest fights possible.

While Broner has only been a pro for the last four years, Broner is already on the verge of becoming the next pay per view star for HBO. His last fight against Vicente Escobedo hauled in 1.4 million viewers on HBO, the high for Boxing After Dark for the year. Those kinds of stats are usually reserved for PPV stars and you have to figure the fans that tuned in for that fight were fans of Broner more so than Escobedo.

Image: Broner vs. DeMarco: I'm going to knock Antonio out, says AdrienBy Scott Gilfoid: Adrien Broner (24-0, 20 KO’s) is on a mission on November 17th. He’s coming to take WBC lightweight champion Antonio DeMarco’s title and do it in style by knocking him out cold in their fight on HBO at the Boardwalk Hall, Atlantic City, in New Jersey, USA. Broner, 23, is moving up in weight and he wants to beat the so-called best fighter at lightweight in DeMarco and look sensation in doing so.

Broner said “I’m not coming just to win this fight, I’m coming to knock DeMarco out…it’s just going to be another day in the ring for me.”

Ricky Burns didn’t duck Adrien Broner

Image: Ricky Burns didn't duck Adrien BronerBy Steven Ocallaghan: Adrien Broner’s dad recently mentioned in an interview at Fighthype how he believes that WBO lightweight champion Ricky Burns has been running from Broner, and that he sees Burns continuing to do this in the future. The fact of the matter is Burns couldn’t make 130lbs so moved up last year rather than fighting Broner.

Broner himself couldn’t make the limit in his last fight against Vincente Escobedo last July, not once but twice but insisted that he was super featherweight.

Let’s see if Broner makes the weight in his challenge for a world title on November 17th against WBC lightweight champion Antonio DeMarco or will Broner just give away a few dollars to still make the fight happen?

Broner’s dad: Ricky Burns ran from Adrien once; he’ll do it again

Image: Broner's dad: Ricky Burns ran from Adrien once; he'll do it againBy Scott Gilfoid: Former WBO super featherweight champion Adrien Broner’s dad doesn’t see WBO lightweight champion Ricky Burns (35-2, 10 KO’s) being seriously interested in wanting to face Adrien in a unification match in 2013 despite Burns having said that he’d like to take that fight.

Broner’s dad said to Fighthype.com “Ricky Burns, we know you ran from us up to 135. We’re about to catch you at 135. Burns don’t want none. He can keep running. He’s a bum.”

Broner on his way to greatness with win over DeMarco

by

Image: Broner on his way to greatness with win over DeMarcoBy Scott Gilfoid: Adrien Broner (24-0, 20 KO’s) first stop off while on his way to setting the boxing world on fire is a fight against WBC lightweight champion Antonio DeMarco (28-2-1, 21 KO’s) next month on November 17th at the Boardwalk Hall in Atlantic City, New Jersey. Broner, 23, will dominate DeMarco and take his strap.

From there Broner will move onto taking the other lightweight straps against Miguel Vazquez and Ricky Burns. Broner will likely have problems getting a fight with Burns, because once Broner destroys DeMarco, I expect Burns to be kept far, far away from Broner to where he’ll never get a fight with him. Right now, Broner’s name is being mentioned by Burn’s promoters about a possible unification match between them.

Broner: DeMarco won’t be able to use his power against me

Image: Broner: DeMarco won't be able to use his power against meBy Dan Ambrose: Adrien Broner (24-0, 20 KO’s) isn’t too proud to admit that WBC lightweight champion Antonio DeMarco (28-2-1, 21 KO’s) is a big puncher, but he doesn’t see it helping him any to win their fight on November 17th at the Boardwalk Hall, in Atlantic City, New Jersey. At the end of the day, Broner sees his skills as being the reason why he’ll dominate the 26-year-old 5’10” DeMarco and he could be right.

Broner said in an interview at RingTV “A lot of people think that he’s the bigger guy and the bigger puncher, but once we get in there, you will see who is the bigger and the better guy…I know that he’s got the size, and it’s obvious that he can punch. But what’s power against something that you can’t hit?”
