Broner just turnt up... Young hood ? wit money and ? and a lot of followers in his entourage. No need for you ? hating on him though, talking bout (I wish he lose", "cant wait til he lose", "he a clown", "he shouldn't be doing this or that", "Please knock him out"). Damn yall sound boxed in. Let loose and live a little you ? robots. Its a free country let that ? live his life not yall boring ass computer comment typing ones... If that ? want to eat stripper ass all week and wipe his ass with $100 dollar bills than that's his prerogative.

I hope Broner knows that destroying legal tender is a federal offense. He's snitching on himself. At least when Floyd burned that bill, they said it was fake (or some ? like that). He could've put that money in his kids' trust fund, but he's blowin it like a lil' dope boy ? . Smh... He think he's Floyd pt. 2, but he's gonna find out quick that ? don't like sequels from classics. They rarely work.

LOS ANGELES -- Olympic boxers will fight without head guards in a pro-style scoring system starting this year after several significant rule changes by the sport's international governing body.
The International Boxing Association (AIBA) unveiled several rule amendments this week, but the two biggest changes will move the Olympic sport much closer to the professional version. The rejection of headgear and the introduction of 10-point scoring could make the sport once known as amateur boxing more appealing to young boxers seeking professional careers.
Male boxers at the world championships in October and the Rio de Janeiro Olympics in 2016 won't wear the protective head guards adopted before the 1984 Los Angeles Games. Although the move might seem counterintuitive in preventing brain injuries, the chairman of AIBA's medical commission, Charles Butler, cites numerous medical studies that suggest fighting without head guards will decrease concussions.
"There's no evidence protective gear shows a reduction in incidence of concussion," Butler said. "In 1982, when the American Medical Association moved to ban boxing, everybody panicked and put headgear on the boxers, but nobody ever looked to see what the headgear did."
AIBA's executive committee unanimously voted to add head guards to amateur competition in April 1984, and they stayed in place through eight straight Olympics.
But the headgear has long been criticized for diffusing the impact of a blow and allowing fighters to continue sustaining more head shots for a longer stretch of time. The gear also offers no protection to the chin, where many knockout blows land in boxing, while the bulky sides of the device impede fighters' peripheral vision, preventing them from seeing every head blow.
The head guard ban will only affect male boxers at the top levels of AIBA competition, meaning women's boxers and younger fighters will still wear the gear.
The amateur sport also is moving to a pro-style, 10-point scoring system, discarding the latest version of the much-criticized computer punch-count systems implemented after the Seoul Olympics in 1988. Each fight will be scored by five ringside judges with the traditional 10-9 or 10-8 rounds familiar to fans of professional boxing.
The sport moved to a punch-counting system after the infamously bizarre results in Seoul, including Roy Jones Jr.'s inexplicable loss. But the computer system has been highly subjective and arcane, often turning the sport into a sparring session that emphasizes punch volume over technique and ring generalship.
North American boxers have been particularly critical of the computerized scoring, with many top U.S. and Mexican prospects declining even to participate in amateur boxing.
The traditional scoring system also should indirectly improve fighters' safety, according to Butler. Since body shots and combinations notoriously scored few points in the computerized punch-count system, fighters have long placed a premium on a high volume of head shots, since an opponent's neck snapping back is the surest way to make sure a punch is seen and counted.
"Boxing isn't bean counting," Butler said. "The thing that makes (the computer system) dangerous is if you're a boxer, you know you're not going to get a point for a body shot, so what are you going to do except punch the head? There were no points given for combinations. You might get one point. If a kid was a counterpuncher, you'd lose."
AIBA has been moving its sport to a professional model for the past several years under the direction of president Wu Ching-Kuo, even opening two professional boxing ventures: the team-based World Series of Boxing and the individual APB Boxing, slated to debut this fall. AIBA even dropped the word "amateur" from its name and competitions to emphasize its desire to control boxing at every level.
"It is AIBA's duty to bring the sport of boxing to the pinnacle of the Olympic Movement, and I am convinced that these changes will critically contribute to the development of our beloved sport," Wu said. "Decisions have not been made lightly, and we will now put a lot of efforts in educating our national member federations, our officials, boxers and coaches, as well as boxing fans around the world."

Hopefully, this new change tips towards the American teams better, since our fighters train to go pro. That 10 point system changes the game... If they did that back in the day, Roy Jones Jr. and Floyd Mayweather would have gold medals. But you still have a lot of ? judges tho.
That new rule should be across the board for men and women. I'm probably one of the few people that can get into women's boxing. ? it... Claressa Shields was the most exciting boxer on the U.S. team last year in London...
I ? with women boxing too....but I can never find a channel for the ? ...every now and again I get lucky and catch a bout on SNY
It's rarely shown in the U.S. on a mid level network (nevertheless a major one like HBO), and the women get paid ? for it. It's relatively pretty big in a lot of Latin American countries. I know they tried in the late 1990s with it, and you had some women that achieved moderate success (Laila Ali, Mis St. John, Christy Martin). Laila Ali lived off of her dad's name (and she was pretty), but she didn't take any high risk fights (Anne Wolfe would've busted her ? ). Mis St. John was just a moderately skilled Playboy bunny with boxing gloves (though she pulled off an upset against Christy Martin). Christy Martin was good in her prime, but she stated to fall off (and she wasn't eye appealing).
yeah I remember Christie Martin....she used to fight on alot of Tyson Undercards.....I remember the one bout where she was fighting this tall ass ? .....Christie threw an overhand right that landed square on her jaw and it was game over -

If you ain't mad why you even commenting with negativity "brotha"? Why you worried about what white people think about a black man who has nothing to do with you, at all. Don't put your insecurities in someone else ? . If white people have collective group think and continue to stereo type a culture off a few individuals then why do you care for that unprincipled level of thinking?
In all honesty tons of boxers and athletes in general go broke. That ? is their decision. How that upsets you people I dont know. I just look at this ? as entertainment and comedy. Does not affect me personally in the least.
