    he can't just act normal? lol there are ways to act that aren't either extreme
    personally i think what hes doing is ok, he'll just end up like all the other ? type boxers when they retire....broke

    but as a boxer hes progressin pretty coo, just needs to step up the competition just a little more

    ? what? Normal... Why does everyone have to have the same damn personality? I find loud extroverts entertaining, yet society tells us once you achieve money and fame you must be humble. Why? Boring ass ? I swear!

    You know what, I'm done throwing the Boxing thread off the actual subject of boxing. No one reply to this or any of my previous statements. If yall want to keep the ? going post something in the social lounge otherwise I'm done.

    Anybody got a link to that Abraham beat down?

    Shout out to @perspective.

    Most of these ? are broke lames who want every young boxer to act 45.

    well you know im far from broke and he doesnt need to act 45....but act 23....hes acting like hes 11.

    ? we want to root for the dude because real fans see his potential. but when he does dumb ? , hes just another ? headed toward the "woulda, coulda, shoulda afterlife".

    we want that next elite champion to root for that will keep the sport alive. Broner is a prospect that does dumb ? .

    look deep into what people are saying..its not as surface as we want him to lose just because. its more because maybe he will learn his lesson.

    so fukk what you call a boring life, ? we just matured. an lets not use his age as a reason he acts like that. he has followers and his dad an ? around him. they should educate him on proper manhood and public view behavior. i would be embarrassed if my son came out cooning saying ? repeatedly outside of our cultural circle.

    his kids is watching this ? ...watching him act like that. he reminds me of those ? the dude in ATL keeps hitting with the stungun.

    "We want we want"... Who gives a ? what you want?

    ? always say they matured as an excuse for their depression when there life is boring as ? . Maybe if yall would be yourselves and not live by everybody elses guidlines on how you are supposed to be you might find life more fulfilling.
    ? age and environment he grew up in are major factors in how he acts so I dont know why yall keep saying him being young is not apart of the reason he doing dumb ? . I'm from Ohio so I know how Cincinnati is. Why the ? yall always trying to put motherfuckas in a box. let that ? do his thang, ? ...



    most of these boxers are the first ones that say...i give the people what they want. am I right?
    and you are using depression....really. because a young gifted black man is possibly ruining himself, we depressed because we(black people not ? ) dont want him blowing his chance to reach the stars rather than settle for crumbs.

    if the man wants to make it rain...then by all means do it....but make your money to make it rain. be the best at what you do and be professional about it. so if the ? doesnt work out...your plan b will have bridges connected to it...

    as far as his environment.....so the fukk what. dont really care where hes from. you need to have a strong mind to rise above your surrounding influences. he is not showing he can rise above it and that makes him easier to pull back down.

    real talk. if he was my homie....i'd tell him to get away from us and the hood ? an become something bigger than the hood and boxing.

    but thats just me

    yeah, dude is washed up...he needs the title to stay relevant but they have no rematch clause. stieglitz people gonna squeeze every last penny out of him...

    he should just fight sturm at a catchweight and then they both should hang it up if you ask me

    Yeah, some years ago. I was doing boxing and Muay Thai from 2005-2009. I do bag work and spar on the regular though, to keep my ? tight.

    i dont know about trout getting knocked out in the late rounds as the article says...
    he has never been down as a pro but then again he has fought tomato cans for the most. vanes knocked him out as an amateur but that was when he was a teenager. here is the vid:

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HtAqYxG9EnU

    if canelo will stop trout, it's probably not gonna be a clean knockout more like the ref stoppin the fight or trout retiring on his stool through accumulated punishment, if the fight plays out like that at all as the article suggests.
