"From Being Fed Mexicans to Being Fed to Them?" Broner v Vargas SHOWTIME 4/21 Fight Thread

[Amor fati]

Adrian let Vargas go to easily, Broner could have let his hand go in rnd 11 and 12. However he surprised me I assumed that Vargas was going to win by decision by a huge margin. Broner is wild for saying the crazy shyt in the post fight interview.

That’s been card of the year so far . Showtime really running this shyt .

Broner looked good in this fight. This is the kind of fight he would typically lose.

I think this was rather the Granados type of close fight he typically wins on the cards

 

[patscorpio]

Yeah definitely.

@patscorpio

Now you see the value of the catch weight?

still dont agree with the use of one for this fight though breh

Broner did his usual thing, Vargas was damn near a dead man walking towards the end and he just gave it away. I think he has the physical ability to throw more, it's just that he doesn't want to. Vargas and Mike McCallum should change up their attack plan. Vargas doesn't have the stamina to fight this way at all and more active boxers will be like in the second half of a fight and stop him.

If it wasn't for the 144 CW Vargas probably takes this decisively. I thought the last two rounds Vargas won and should have gotten the decision but

 

[patscorpio]

Look at Broner dap Vargas up. His whole personality is a gimmick. Same as his career trying to get people to believe he is an elite fighter.

 

[BlackMajik]

This nikka Broner is a complete stereotype smh

I agree, but the whole point is to gain an advantage. That could have been the difference in this fight.

 

[Luck]

Yeah...... nikka has no real identity, so he puts on this persona...... But its just fake.

He don’t have enough talent to be tryin to play the role he tryin to play

Fight was entertaining and underwhelming at the same time

It turned out like a Grandados type of fight, but I was referring to the caliber of the opponent. I don't think Vargas is as good as the guys Broner has lost to, but he's still a very strong opponent. I just don't have confidence in AB against these kind of guys.

At this point Broner is just a name. And even his name is losing value. To beat broner today really doesn't mean anything anymore. There's nobody to fight at 140. At 147 he's food. Crawford would destroy him. Spence would leave him pissing blood. Dude is officially journeyman status. And to top it off, Vargas prolly wont do a rematch at 144. The only time broner is able to hurt his opponent is when he drains em down to a catch weight. Dude is done out here
