Let's see what Garcia has.
Already I'm thinking Broner won't be 100% mentally and physically.

I'm not big on either of them, but I'd rather see Garcia win as he has more interesting potential matchups awaiting him.

Broner is an annoying jackass. Garcia they've mentioned before wanted to be a cop prior to becoming a boxer, so that pretty much guarantees I'll never be a fan of his, but I'd still rather see him fight than Broner.

Why does that put you off Garcia?

See, for me, Garcia is very easy to like. Entertaining fighter and respectful in his conduct from all that I've seen.

I've personally known about 10 cops in my lifetime. I've lived with one (my former stepdad) he was a piece of living garbage, and I don't think much of cops in general. I'm respectful and get along with them as I need to because I'm not a criminal, but I've seen a lot of BS from them in my lifetime and "wanting to be a cop" is so far from something I can identify with that I'd never like somebody that thinks like that.

I'm sure that goes for most people. He's an entertaining fighter certainly.

I want Garcia to win because I don't want Broner to win. I guess because I am a fan of Paul Malignaggi and he lost by a controversial decision to Broner. Also, I don't want to see Broner's opinions on video, not that I watch them anymore, but I see that they exist.

Broner is an arse. Full of himself, showboats, hurls abuse, not a role model for kids, and should be introduced to wearing a condom once in a while.

I'm rooting for Broner because he's a heck of a talent and I'd love to see him right his life and live up to his potential. He's still young enough to make a run at a remarkable career.

I think that Garcia is a cherry picker and his world titles are hardly noteworthy because of the less than stellar opposition he bested to get them. But the same could be said about Broner and I'm aware of that. But at least Broner got inside the ring with top fighters and risked it. We'll see how good Mikey is in this one.

I'll be rooting for a good fight and Garcia. I want to see strong fundamentals, intelligence and a cool head prevail, which is what Garcia posseses, trump the size and power advantage that is Broner. Although Broners skills can't be underrated, he fails in other areas such as work rate, defence and preparation. This fight is not a joke for Garcia unless their camp know something we don't such as Broner is completely broken.

Broner.

They're both fatties that have enjoyed a weight advantage spanning their entire careers, so that makes them equal in that regard. Broner is a dick but is sometimes fun to laugh at, while Garcia comes across phony and could halfway be bothered with boxing, so why should I care to tune in?

:lol: It's a shame though that the scumbags ruin it for the good cops, who go above and beyond what is expected out of most people in daily life.

I guess I should jump in with both feet and root for Broner since I picked him to upset Garcia.
Broner is a dumb arse, but can fight. Not elite, but have a feeling he'll be too strong and hit too hard for Garcia, and seems to be very motivated. Hopefully there won't be any humping each other like the Maidana fight. :o
(I'll worry though if Jip makes the same pic) :doh:

I'm just hopeful that anyone who thinks broner has a chance will accept that he was focused, motivated, excited, etc.. after he gets his ass whipped.

He has about the same odds as McGregor.
