That's life adrien never was elite breh. If avy of them can win titles in 4 different divisions they would be a success story .u looking at Adrien like he was the next floyd but that's not him. He's Adrian a great fighter but not the talent y'all want him to beYou're right, he has.
However, as it is now he looks like an underachiever because for as much as hes accomplished, he should be in a much better position than hes in today
All them accomplishments and hes currently a B-Side fighter

:aboutbillions: does the exact same thing.
Only Floyd could do that & stay dominant
Speaking on jus the Porter fight
Atleast AB had a reason not to throw...he wasnt physically strong enough Shawn mauled his ass...had him on the ropes
Swift was pushing Shawn off him...walking him back in clinches...was never on the ropes...no fukking reason to throw <500 punches
Conscious Pilot
Do Better.
Swift should strongly think about doing a catch weight with Broner at 144 after he fights a can or two. Their both huge draws and the matchup itself is appealing for a number of reasons.

stretch to call broner a "great" fighter
but your point still stands
hes a solid fighter
Still think his struggle boxing self got a better resume than Mikey?Angel ain't goin no where it is what it is
Swift needs another another eye in the camp like Bhop did for the matthysse fight...its fukked up how Bhop threw them nikkas under the bus when oscar got out of rehab
Them sparring partners they had were trash...Danny saying he shoulda threw more punches against Keith ERRY interview since January N he throws the least amount of punches ever even tho he landing at 40%... trash
He beat Khan by throwing combinations...beat Matthysse by throwing combinations
This whole countering with the better accurate punches shyt Only works when your counters slows down the opps work rate AND you land more punches
Two fights against top comp at 147, two losses watch out for Garcia Collazo coming in 2019
Thatrogueassdiaz
We're on the blood path now
His pride won't let him accept that he lost the two biggest fights of his career because he didn't do enough to win. He should have beat both and he should be unified champion.

Still in 2018 most of those other fighters are well respected by the boxing community while Broner is a TMZ punchline.
U really think boxers give a fukk what fans think? Let any of those fighters take a few Ls and they gone see how much the fans really love them

he was an elite level talent back in the days, he was elite in 130 and 135 when he fought there but he wanted the big money fights in 147...
He's still no a good place as far as value goes cause barely a few American fighters are bigger than him but still he became something very different by the age of 29 than what many people thought he gonna become by the age of 29. He started out as the "next Mayweather" (I always thought that's an exaggeration but you get it...) and became the clown of the boxing world instead.

Depends on the given fighter. Some fighters really do care about popularity some don't.

To be honest I didn't think he would...
I mean he lost a clearer fight against Thurman and he thought he won there too
Frank Warren Inks Multi-Year Content Deal With Top Rank, ESPN
Multi-year licensing agreement will bring the best events from the UK and Europe to boxing fans in the United States and Canada on the ESPN family of networks.
Frank Warren’s Queensberry Promotions and Top Rank are proud to announce an exclusive, landmark multi-year licensing agreement that will bring the best events from the United Kingdom and Europe to boxing fans in the United States and Canada.
“We are committed to securing the biggest and best events from around the world,” said Top Rank President Todd duBoef. “Our long-term objective is to showcase global talent and to expose the next generation of boxing stars. Frank Warren is a legend with a keen eye for building talent, and his, elite stable has proven to resonate with North American fans.”
"I am absolutely delighted and honoured to announce this landmark multi-year deal with Top Rank that will see my Promotions going forward feature regularly on the ESPN platforms in the US and Canada. This was a very attractive opportunity to us due to the level of exposure our stable of fighters will benefit from by being showcased by one of, if not, the biggest broadcaster in Sport. Boxers like Terence Crawford and Vasiliy Lomachenko appear on ESPN, and our boxers will be sharing a broadcast home with them going forward. The agreement will open doors for them to get their name known coast to coast in North America and eventually become stars there.” Warren said.
“The level of exposure, consistency of events being shown and our long and valued relationship with Top Rank will ensure this deal will be a huge success for all involved. US Boxing fans tuning in on ESPN can look forward to seeing competitive match-ups featuring some of the UK's finest Boxing talent on a regular basis,” Warren added.
The first show under the agreement will be Warren’s stacked card on Saturday, Oct. 6 at Morningside Arena Leicester in Leicester, England. That main event will feature WBO No. 2 super lightweight contender Jack “El Gato” Catterall (22-0, 12 KOs) against fellow top contender Ohara Davies (18-1, 14 KOs). Two-time Olympic gold medalist Nicola Adams (4-0, 3 KOs) and young heavyweight knockout artist Daniel Dubois (8-0, 8 KOs) will also see action on the bill. Dubois will face his toughest test to date against former world title challenger Kevin Johnson.
Warren, who was inducted into the International Boxing Hall of Fame in 2008, has been promoting cards for nearly 40 years and has one of the sport’s deepest rosters. He has helped turn many of the United Kingdom’s biggest stars into fan favorites across the pond. Ricky Hatton, Nigel Benn, Joe Calzaghe, Prince Naseem Hamed, and Amir Khan all fought under the Warren banner.
