But he is not old yet, if he wants to continue fighting then he can do it, however, he might not be making good paycheck unlike before because his popularity has already gone down. His lost to Manny was one sided, but the fans could understand since from the very start, we already know that Broner's chance to win is very slim.

I'm on that opinion, maybe the money that him and his camp will be receiving ain't interesting anymore and the mentality inside him about fighting is not that important I mean he don't have the good career to protect so maybe he's not interested to go inside the ring or he's not willing to be trained that hard and try to win a fight and hype his name.

Or, another thing is promoters are trying to make a writeup about him and try to attract readers, especially his fans to push him

to make a comeback, just speculation though but also possible. It's business, so making things like this might engage people and
brig possible tickets conversions when he signs another deal.

When he was still a popular boxer, there are plenty of videos circulating online about how lavish he is when it comes to spending his money. So now, I think he might be indebted because he ain't making a lot of money, and if he still keeps his old lifestyle, he sure is facing a big problem until now.

Adrian Broner should have announced his retirement if he doesn't want to fight anymore After his loss to Manny Pacquiao he isn't the same anymore, he doesn't want to take a fight mostly, he sure is not the same Adrian Broner back then, in my opinion,

Adrian Broner is already showing signs of inconsistencies even prior fighting to with Pacquiao.

I'm not even sure why he is considered to be an opponent to Manny Pacquaio although he is a front-runner during that time. The result of that fight against Pacquiao is not even close and his final score is really bad.

Broner is still young at age 33 but seems his fighting performance is almost like around 40 years old already.
Exactly. If Adrian Broner retires at an early age then this might mean the mental health problem was true. Something is bothering him or some sickness hit him as most boxers do. All the critics about him just copping out against Omar Figueroa will be shut down as he hangs his gloves.
It's just sad that he won't be able to maximize the length of fighting as other boxers do. Like Manny. 40+ years and still kicking for millions of dollars.  Grin

I think the Manny Pacquiao lost was the final nail in the coffin for Broner's career. But it was really Maidana (his first lost) that really haunts him because after that he was really exposed as just a regular fighter, and when he step up next against Shawn Porter he then suffered another lost and then to Mikey Garcia. So when Manny beat him, we could say that he is already on the downside of his career. and no longer that hungry, and this could start his career as a journey man. Maybe just 2 more fights and then his done for good.

Atleast both of them made an impact on Adrien Broner's career, to simply put it Broner was really cocky during the weigh-in and said some weird stuff on Maidana, Man! I really love that Marcos Maidana has humble Broner, that was the first loss that Adrien Broner has changed in his fight patterns indeed after seeing that fight it was the time everyone is seeing Broner just drop down to the canvas, it was really the 1st time Adrien Broner felt the loss and shame so it really was the one that lingers, but for Manny Pacquiao, this is his last shot he thinks he can beat Pacquaio so he can get his confidence back but it was all to naught when he was shown the power of Manny Pacquiao, he hasn't returned to his usual self,

Jake Paul posted on twitter that he just got an opponent for October and he’ll be announcing it this week.

I’m really hoping it’s Andrew Tate. That is the fight to make right now for the money and one that is actually be excited to watch and maybe even pay for. Fingers crossed it isn’t some no name boxer at the end of his career.

How I wish it will not be a retired MMA fighter or a retired boxer, somehow after you have said Andrew Tate I kinda like the sound of it Jake Paul kind of beating the crap out of the most toxic man to ever be alive that would be a great watch, knowing that an Andrew Tate could be pulverized by Jake Paul that would be awesome at some point,



On Sept. 4, and that will be this Sunday the match between Andy Ruiz Jr. vs. Luis Ortiz will be in action, and for me, Andy Ruiz Jr. has the speed on his punches, despite his fat appearance, looks can be deceiving and pretty much stake odds for this fight was pretty much all for Andy Ruiz Jr, for bettors to win this fight and I totally agree about it,

Andrew Tate would be the very best opponent for him if they want much payperviews from the younger fans hehehe. However, from Jake's tweet it appears to be someone else, I reckon. Someone who might have fought one of the Paul brothers already and had the victory? I predict the next opponent might be KSI. KSI has fought and knocked out Luis Pineda recently. He is a Mexican professional boxer who has a record of 2 wins, 5 losses hheehehe.

@Baofeng. Can you suggest a list of the top 10 boxing events or fights for September that everyone should be watching.

It seems that we have a good fight last night, Commey vs Pedraza battling it out for a split draw. I was waiting for this fight but it seems that the fight started late as I expected so I didn't see it. And so I was surprised to see how the fight turns out. It seems to be the favorite Pedraza rallied in the last 4 rounds to force that verdict. Commey suffered a cut and they Pedraza take advantage of it to somewhat get out of the eventual lost. Scores where: Judge Henry Gueary scored for Pedraza, 97-93, David Sutherland scored it 96-94 Commey and Judge Gary Ritter scored it 95-95.

Oh well, we really will not know the real reasons for now, maybe they just said to the organizations that AB has mental issues and can't be bothered and so he wanted to cancel the fight, so it is what it is. This could be the new norm of excuses if fighters just wake up and doesn't what to fight anymore. For sure Broner will get a lot of judgement on this one.

Nah, I think he got exposed by Marcos Maidana, after his first defeat in boxing, he seemed to have lost his ability to win, he is more talk than action in the ring, even in the fight with Pacman, he disrespected the champ, and though he won the fight although it was obvious that was hit more than he hits Pacman.

I agree, I was about to say that, it was really Marcos Maidana who took the soul of Broner, Lol, after his defeat he is no longer the same, and become the laughing stock of the internet. But he can't accept it so he continue to fight and even if he is beaten by Manny, he thinks he still won. I'm on the fence as well with he call the fight off with Omar Figueroa citing mental issues. But I have a feeling that Broner will still continue to fight just to have the money because he as a lot brushed with the law and then he will have to continue his child support.

Is this the fight where Broner became a laughing stock on social media? His inability to accept losses truly shines.  

I just hope that he have learned the lesson that being overconfident is also dangerous. But yes, despite that he's aware of who can he beat and win.

It's better for him to have that emotion set at the normal setting so that it won't overwhelm him when he's on another match whether it will be from a lower division fighter or of the same.

Who? Donaire? I don't really think that he have that kind of attitude where goes being overconfident to his foe because of his capabilities, we know Donaire's attitude towards Inoue though but none of it shouts that he's overconfident.

Even us didn't really expected that Inoue will evolve that much because we think that they will still have a long 12-round fight where there will be a long blow-by-blow punches all the way to the 12th round. But Inoue finished Donaire in just 2 rounds with a stoppage.
On his match with Inoue, he said that he's going to beat Inoue and that's what I think that he became overconfident on that time. That's just my opinion and if you think guys that it's not a sign that he's overconfident with those words, that's okay.

It is what I've thought of him.

But I want the best for him if he ever will have another match again. We all love to see him back and healthy again with a win.

Well, I think Donaire can beat Inoue if he is still in his prime, but sadly his body can't catch up with his words since he already lost a lot of speed due to aging in their fight.  But as far as I know, Donaire has never been overconfident in his fight, to the point that he is slacking in training.  Having a self confidence is helpful in a boxer since he can think clearly and won't be intimidated by the opponent.

Well, you may be right about that, and we can not confirm if the downfall of Adrien Broner could really be Marcos Maidana or Manny Pacquiao and because Maidana was the first loss Broner felt, maybe he really is the cause of the change for Broner's attitude, well he still has 3 consecutive wins after that, but well we can be wrong about it, but surely Adrien Broner isn't really that good anymore that is for sure,


You got some point because mostly, the replacement is not actually within the same caliber as the original fighter but there are also some times that their foes were shocked as well as the public because the replacement is not someone to be underestimated and ultimately they lost the fight just like Manny Pacquiao, Figueroa and Ancajas.

I sure do hope that Ancajas will come prepared this time and solve his issues in the weight because this fight is his ticket to fight Ioka next.


I surely hope so, I also wish that they can have a win again or get a title match so they can reclaim that loss they have, and about Manny Pacquiao, he will be having a special boxing match against DK Yoo, this is going to be on December and just thinking about it, I think it will be hilarious, they are facing inside the ring with boxing and we all know that all of Manny Pacquiao's life he was doing boxing while DK Yoo, is on Martial Art's he is some what new to fighting on boxing, and he surely makes illegal punches because he is not used to the sports, and some roll to evade his opponent, of this is the MMA then I think he can surely used all of his mastered skill in Combat but against an 8th time division boxer he will surely face the wrath of Manny Pacquiao,

Well, we all know that in boxing many times having too much confidence is not good, if it is good to have self-esteem, but you cannot declare yourself the winner either because that is what often kills the boxer and then he loses and falls like a rock, because he does not know how to control the level of stress that his words represent when he spoke at that moment, a quiet person, who prepares well, who trains very hard, most likely he will win, otherwise I think it is very difficult, although there are boxers who speak and do what they preach and are not at all humble, but I am sure that in a moment they will fall, 'because everything is like that in life.

Anyway, Jerwin already have some knowledge now how to counter Martinez's punches or even outmatch the latter. Let's just hope too that Jerwin wouldn't experience the same situation he was in on their first encounter because I heard that he was struggling to make the required weight.

Hopefully, Jerwin won't slack this time since he doesn't have any more reason why he will lose a fight.  I bet Ancajas will be fully prepared this time.  I believe Ancajas underestimated Martinez in their first fight since Martinez is just a replacement but surprised him that Martinez is a tough opponent and even beat him in speed.  But first thing first, I hope Jerwin won't have any problem on their weigh-in.

Well, we are all clear that the main objective is for Ancajas to win, at least that is the one who is looking for that result at all costs, in any case his main objective is to go against Ioka, but he is a boxer who is always looking for success, but I am seriously thinking that Ancajas has a good plan to get a victory and then go all out for Ioka, of course he has to win before and I don't see it as easy, for me he already has his strategy and I think that because of the style that he It always shows, I would go to think that it is considered to do a knockout, so there is no wear, it comes out quickly and the only wear it will do is at the beginning.

Not sure though if Broner or someone in his camp cared to give some evidence that proves he has some mental issues that's why he backed out from that fight. Who wouldn't be so pissed about that? Grin You've allocated all your time and effort for a certain boxer to study his moves in the ring and Figueroa is really looking forward to fight Broner in the same ring but unfortunately, Broner turns his back on him.

Well, I think Adrian Broner just wants to piss Omar Figueroa Jr. by not telling him ahead about his condition, or maybe he doesn't really have any issue at all he just wants to piss Omar Figueroa Jr. by just canceling their fight suddenly, Omar Figueroa's record right now is not looking good having good consecutive wins up to February 16, 2019,  until having 3 consecutive losses he surely needs a winning record and a good fight before he retires, he surely needs that win badly that is for sure,


Oh well, we really will not know the real reasons for now, maybe they just said to the organizations that AB has mental issues and can't be bothered and so he wanted to cancel the fight, so it is what it is.

Evidence should be provided or if not there should be penalties that must be imposed.
I read an article before that Figueroa's camp has some evidence that Broner is not really in a bad mental state.
He even called it just a reason to "cop out".
I guess this is the next bad reasoning after the Covid. Figueroa's fans are still not satisfied with what happened (loss to Lipinets) and all the blame are on what Broner did. I guess it really sucks to prepare at a full blow for your real match but will end up fighting a different boxer.

I think, Figueroa's camp should let things go.  Besides, it is their own incompetence that made them lose the fight.  It does suck to have the opponent replaced at the last moment but if the fight goes the other way around and Figueroa's won the fight, I doubt there will be an issue like this.  Besides, both fighters had given the same amount of time for preparation for the strategy since both fighters are notified at the same time.

We can't know that for sure because aside from the fact that Ancajas was struggling to catch the required weight, his trainings were originally made for Ioka and the team was studying the Japanese boxer's move for quite some time to help Ancajas win the fight but that didn't happen because of Ioka's sudden decision.

Yes, we can't be sure about the result but if that fight against Ioka happened, it might be hard for Ancajas to do exactly the strategy they formed against Ioka since he's not in his usual condition which his camp also admits. It's really stressful for the body to undergo force and rush training and works on his diet of maintaining weight especially if the weigh-in is now approaching.

Not sure though why Ioka backed out, does anybody here know why?

The response above is correct. It's because of the Omicron variant that hits Japan late last year. Since the venue will be in Japan, it got delayed. Also, the same case happened with GGG vs Murata fight that is postponed due to the virus as they also held their fight in Japan.

Ancajas unification fight vs Ioka in Japan postponed to 2022 due to Omicron


Well, you guys might be right about that and Ancajas will struggle because of his situation at that time and might be defeated if in case his fight against Ioka were not postponed. Because of that, it'll be exciting to see them fight if Ancajas will succeed this time in grabbing the IBF back in his possession as Ioka is now holding the WBO belt.
He suffers from defeat with Martinez. I also believe that if that fight didn't postpone, he might lose with Ioka too; he need to prepare harder now to reclaim his belt then move and push that challenged against Ioka, that will be a much more interesting fight knowing that Ioka is really a hot fighter currently, he's on his prime right now and if in case Ancajas wins against Martinez, it would be nice to see him chasing against Ioka, they both can test each other inside the ring and see if who'll be the winner.

Let's wait for the outcome of these upcoming fights between Ancajas and Martinez, another entertaining rematch, since both will try to
beat one another and claim the title.
