I predict a spectacular KO by Broner. Watch for him landing the left hook on Khabib.
I wouldn't hold my breath on that one.
It was a sound beating and a stoppage (albeit kinda dubious).

And Broner did what he set out to do, insert himself back into the conversation.

As to his performance, I didn't see too much different.

The guy I saw last night would still have huge problems with a opponent with a high work rate and a good punch.

But, 4 belts in 4 weight classes at age 26 is an accomplishment no matter how much one wants to naysay it.

Hats off to The Problem...hope he stays in the gym.
He's a talented contender at 140. That's pretty much all I'd say about him. The belts aren't all that meaningful and he was beaten twice above 140.

You called the stoppage, so I can certainly admit I was wrong about that. Not spectacular, but he stopped him. It's a good win.

Nothing "spectacular" about it, but yeah he stopped him.

Hope he wises up before it is too late to take advantage of his obvious talent.

I don't think he will ever be great, but only because he is the type to keep getting in his own way.

Talk about pigeon holing someone. The kid has come out and said that his act was dogshiit and that he's done with it and dedicating his life to Boxing. It wasn't just words, the kid stayed dedicated and focused in camp and proved he was serious by way of demolishing a very good boxer.

KC, imagine if you grew up in the projects where you had to steal for every dime and then out of nowhere at 21 yrs old, you get a bank account for the first time and it's got 7 digits in it. You wouldn't make any mistakes with your life with that noose, would you? Please.
