Peterson has some of the same problems as AB though. He goes into a shell when being attacked and waits til the onslaught is over to get his chit off. Fighters than cant integrate their defense into their offense end up taking a lot of beatings before its said and done. AB good offense and good defense...but he has to be focused on doing one at a time.
When you think about it the money is at 147, I don't see broner moving down
That's the truth right there. In a close fight you can get away with walking out, cause you pissed...unless you are Marquez or Cotto, because they always pull that shyt.
But if you catch a beating, doing that shows a lot about your character. Many a fighter or athlete has gained respect by being a man about it and then when you come back, people give you more respect than they had given you before.
Peterson has the experience of being in those tough fights therefore I think he would beat AB in a head to head matchup.
Your talking to a guy who doesn't think much of AB as a fighter at all though. I think lower tier guys like a past prime Kendal ****, Hank Lundy, etc would give the guy trouble. That gives you an idea of what I think of AB as a fighter.
His trainer kept it real with him though and TOLD him he needed a KO....but Broner wanted to get an attitude and argue back
He needs to hire Roger Mayweather
It would be a fight of back and forth leading. Broner is more skilled overall and would likely win that battle. Peterson just dont fight smart enough for me. I would favor Broner.
I dreamt (no lie) that broner got stopped. I woke up with a itchy chin and may put some dough on that. I will be missing the cards tomorrow due to other commitments but will catch up on sunday afternoon..
We'll agree to disagree. I'll say it's 50-50 fight maybe.
If Peterson fights him aggressively, landing bodyshots, keeping him on the ropes like he did in the Khan fight he has a great chance of winning the fight comfortably.
Broner - Maidaina was fight of the year. Sensational fight! Also had a candidate for round of the year too. Broner got exposed and his career is in the
Upset of the year is Gonzalez KO'ing Mares. That was crazy. I don't think I'd call this fight of the year but I'd put it in the top 10. I still think Bradley vs. Provodnikov was the FOTY.FOY
you must aint see Kirkland vs Tapia or a dozen other fights this year that were better than that.
it was a good fight. but thats it.
upset of the year?
