1/19 SHO PPV [Holding] Potential Broner vs Pacquiao January Fight Thread

[seemorecizzy]

Man watching Pacquiao work is something else man. Broner was game up until he started getting overwhelmed and hit by shots he couldn't see coming.

I still got a bad feeling about Pacquiao continuing to fight into his 40s though. He's still competitive but you can just see the age on him.


Edit: Pacquiao Crawford would've been such a dope fight. Fukk man.

pacquaio will get smoked by any of the top welterweights
broner doesnt throw punches so he had no chance
porter, brooks, spence, crawford, thurman (if he can still fight) would all beat him
easy money to be made if those fights ever get made

So we reached the point when nobody gonna believe the "new beginning" "he's taking it seriously this time" "he still got it" shyt or next time he can pull it off again?

Yeah I think so, He will be a draw because of the f***kery but he's basically going to be Mayorga status now....known as a B- level fighter stepping stone opponent who has name recognition that up and coming prospects can go against.

I'm not so sure, I thought the same thing after he fought Mikey, or even Porter

He only fought Pac-Man cuz he is a draw. He DID NOT earn it. nikka ain’t had a win in how long? Meanwhile Pac-Man KO’d Matthyse. This fight was given to Broner , damn sho did nothing to earn it

I believe the nikka every single time

Idk if anyone posted this yet, but this espn.com recap is savage as hell...

Overall, Pacquiao landed 112 of 568 punches (20 percent), and Broner landed a mere 50 of 295 (17 percent), according to CompuBox statistics. Broner never landed more than eight punches in any round.

Yet he climbed the ring ropes when the final bell sounded as though he won the fight and then stunningly said he thought he had, despite the fight not being remotely close.

"I beat him," Broner said with a straight face.

Boxing is a brutal sport

What class. Top sportsmanship right there from Badou Jack unlike AB insisting he won his fight smh.

True sportsmanship. Especially considering I was mad for him and seen it coming.
Browne kept ducking his entire body when he would hold and then push his head up.

I'm still picking Gvozdyk

I am too. Not by much but I think G-Money is a lil more polished and skilled. But again, not by much.

 

[LauderdaleBoss]

Browne is gonna kick Gvozdyk's ass

hurt him in the 7th. hurt him in the 9th. gets on his bike 10,11,12 looking up at the clock. pacquiao might get the knockout if he didnt. nobody, not shawn porter, not mikey garcia, beat broner that bad since marcos maidana. he still has a little bit left.

Pacquaio beating Broner is great for boxing and for the WW division. Pacquaio has said he's open to fight Spence and/or Garcia. I think he fights the winner of that fight this coming fall. I'm not convinced a mayweather rematch happens. So many great matchups with pacquaio in the mix: Porter, Mikey, Spence, Thurman (really wanna see that fight), Crawford, Danny, etc.

I was impressed by Packeyow...

He still got that bounce in his step and crisp handspeed...

He definitely seems to have lost that pop in his left hand though...

though him and swift may set a record of the most least punches thrown in a fight , it’s an intriguing matchup with two of the more well known guys and the money will be there for a Showtime headliner
