-Adrian Broner claimed the WBC lightweight title in convincing fashion, scoring an eighth-round technical knockout victory over defending champion Antonio DeMarco in Atlantic City, New Jersey.
+== Notes ==
-Broner controlled the action throughout, caught DeMarco repeatedly with power punches, and proved a difficult target en route to his fifth consecutive win in world-title bouts.
+"I was shakin' and bakin' him until I flipped him up," Broner said during his postfight interview, when, of course, he had his father brush his hair. "I knew coming into this fight it was going to be a world-class fight, but I knew he didn't have the skills to beat me."
-The fifth round was a strong one for Broner, who peppered DeMarco with power shots (52 of 78) highlighted by quick right uppercuts. By the end of the round, DeMarco had developed some bruising and a cut had opened under his left eye. Broner continued to land power shots at a high rate in the sixth and drew a grimace from DeMarco in the final minute following a left hand to the body.
+Broner (25-0, 21 KOs) took on DeMarco (28-3-1, 21 KOs), widely regarded as the best 135-pounder in the world, and destroyed him to win, at age 23, a world title in his second weight class.
-A crisp combination capped with a sweeping left uppercut caught DeMarco under the chin midway through Round 8 and sent the champion backward and down to a knee. The DeMarco corner came onto the ring apron and waved the towel, and referee Benjy Esteves Jr. waved an end to the bout without reaching the count of ten.
+It was a stellar performance from the man who calls himself "The Problem." If Broner keeps fighting like this, he is going to be a problem for years to come.
-== Notes ==
+"I think he can be the next Floyd," said Gary Shaw, DeMarco's promoter, who has been around boxing since the 1970s. "He's fast, he has the moves, he has great defense. Obviously, he has punching power. He hurt DeMarco a few times, cut him up. I think Broner is the total package.
-*Antonio DeMarco 28-2-1 (21 KOs) vs. Adrien Broner 24-0 (20 KOs)
-* DeMarco entered as a 5.25-to-1 betting underdog. [http://www.betus.com.pa/sportsbook/lines.aspx?gn=1431072320]
+"Very few guys could stand up to a guy like that for eight rounds. Broner is special."
-* In a minor occurrence prior to the fight, DeMarco's corner argued that Broner's gloves were a little smaller than they should be. The issue was resolved and the fight continued as planned.
-== Quote ==
+"I wanted to make a statement tonight," he said. "And I did."

			*"I'm not coming just to win this fight, I'm coming to knock DeMarco out. This fight is speed versus power and it's going to be just another day in the ring for me. Going up in weight is going to be different and I know he can hit, but you can't hit what you can't see and I'm too fast and furious for him. Power is nothing if you can't connect." - Adrien Broner [http://espn.go.com/boxing/story/_/id/8638289/adrien-broner-says-show-go-antonio-demarco-saturday]
