Will be interesting to see what Fight Score Collector has for majority scores. Seems almost everyone who is re-tweeted by him has Prov winning the fight.

This is exactly why I said AB is now officially underrated:wow:


I will NOT let y'all live this down if The Problem gets his opportunity to fight him.:ufdup:


I don't wanna hear "he was supposed to win", "Algieri is a bum".....I ain't accepting NO EXCUSES especially when y'all saying right now that Algieri beats Broner :birdman:

Y'all did the same shyt with Antonio Demarco, AB went and punished him, and then it was "Broner ain't beat nobody":comeon:


He beats PDL, and it's "PDL ain't shyt and it was close"....regardless of PDL captured another title after losing to AB:snoop:


He beats Paulie Malignaggi and it's "bu-bu-bu Paulie ain't nothing":usure:


Algieri will beat Broner is what y'all saying..... then stick to it:demonic:


Adrien Broner aka "The Problem" aka AB aka "About Billions" aka "Always Ballin" aka "Alotta Burberry" aka "The Can Man Because Anybody CAN GET It" aka "Still Mr. HBO Even Though I Fight On Showtime".....soon to be Champion at 140 for his 4th Division Championship:ohlawd:

:blessed:

:whoa: breh. I think it's kinda unfair to lump me in with the rest of these nikkas seeing that I prolly defend Broner on here more than anybody after you. I'm just strictly calling it like I see it right now. Algieri as the underdog basically did what Broner failed to do against Chino when he was the actual favorite, which was to battle back from adversity against a crude hard puncher an win.

He was even in a worse scenario because his eye was fukked six ways to Sunday and he still boxed the shyt out of the dude with only a handful of cats believing he could even do it (me being one of them). Broner looked good against Paulie, and was impressive against Demarco, but he hasn't boxed on that level in a while. He showed heart against Maidana and got a win over Molina where he failed to impress. I don't think it's any type of shade to say Algieri beats him or is the favorite against Broner.

As of now Broner is rated just fine. Nobody is overrating him, and nobody is overrating him. It's all about match ups. I mean I still think he beats Maidana if they fought again.

#AlgieriAssassins is a live dog against anybody at 140. I'd pick him over Garcia right now too. That doesn't mean I think Swift is garbage. I just see him having a hard time defeating that style. Same thing with Broner. I could be wrong tho. :manny: This is boxing. Sometimes nikkas can fight their best for only one night of their life and go back to being average or whatever afterwards.

Thoughts this morning on last night:

Caught Max Kellerman with a funny comment in the Sergio-Cotto fight. "Athletic fighters don't have the pure technical skills to rely upon when they get older". Roy sat there and didn't say anything for the rest of the round.
.
lmao I straight up had this :lolbron: look when I heard this...

Garcia To Roach: I Guess This Drunk Knows About Boxing

By Bill "Two Scoops" Emes

More than likely, trainer Robert Garcia had a big smile on his face when he jabbed back at fellow coach, Freddie Roach.

Last night at Barclays Center in Brooklyn, Roach's fighter Ruslan Provodnikov lost his WBO junior welterweight championship, by way of a split decision, to undefeated challenger Chris Algieri.

In several pre-fight interviews, Garcia gave Algieri a good shot of unseating the heavily favored champion from Siberia. In the past, Algieri spent time in Garcia's gym located in Oxnard, California.

Roach, who on several occasions in the past traded words with the Oxnard trainer, took offense to Garcia's analysis that Algieri could pull off a big upset.

"If any of his guys want it after this - they can line up too. What the f*** does he know about boxing? Who is he.....drunk," Roach told BoxingScene.com in a video interview several days before the fight.

"[Marcos] Maidana gave Mayweather a fight for four rounds and then Mayweather took over. Then his other boy was a punching bag for my guy, Manny Pacquiao. I'm not impressed by either one. We'll fight either one of them if they want to fight us in the next fight."

Garcia shot back, following Algieri's big victory.

"I guess this drunk does know a little about boxing, Freddie Roach."

:wow:
it would be interesting if garcia trained prov after seeing how he helped maidana improve.

How did he help Maidana improve though?? Cause all I see from him is mostly dirty tactics and cheating

He made Chino jab more and become a little more defensively responsible by adding slips and feints in between his offense and defense.

Maidana always been a rough figther, it's just that he went into overdrive against Floyd due to the large gap in skill.

I doubt Garcia can improve Ruslan though. Roach was telling dude all the correct shyt to do, but he kept doing his own thing which was to stop jabbing his way in and working the body while displaying head movement. Chino improved because he listened and most of all he wanted to improve.

Ruslan got frustrated and the game plan went out the window. Khan used to do the same shyt. Roach can only do so much. He can't take their attributes and fight for them.

I don't think anyone is underrating Broner, if anything that Maidana L has him looking better than before after Maidana gave Floyd a tough fight.

I think Algieri/Broner is a 50/50 fight.

If Broner lets his hands go, he can beat Aligieri no problem.

If his volume output is like it was against Pauli and Maidana, that's when he's in trouble.

Pretty much. If Broner was to start throwing 50-60 punches a round and stop with the whole walking nikkas down while throwing 20-30 punches than I would pick him to beat a lot of dudes at 140-147.

and who is that lil pinoy boy who assists roach now? he been with them for good minute now, but who the fuc k is he?>
the lil bionic boy was training khan for the garcia fight, lol.
Tried looking him up, but couldn't find much. From what I know I thought Roach met him through Pacquiao and brought him on as an assistant, basically to be there with Manny when he couldn't. Now, Roach goes off and trains his biggest fighters at their best moments and when another fighter needs attention at the same time, his assistant (Marvin Somodio) takes over.
Have heard Freddie say a couple times that when he retires, he will turn over his gym to Marvin.

AB averaged 61 punches thrown a round against Carlos Molina landing at 43%:sas1:


Even threw 96 punches in round 7:sas2:


I agree though, he HAS to let his hands go. He throws beautiful combinations and connects so cleanly, but he has to take that same mindset he had against Molina about throwing tons of punches, and keep it for future fights:manny:


He has the tools to be a force, he just has to use em.
