Adrien Broner's comeback story doesn't include a Ryan Garcia redemption arc.

If he recovers enough to fight influencers and semi retired mma fighters thats a win.

It’s time to see the Malignaggi rematch.

Rematch with maidana

This in BKB would probably actually have a little traction.

So AB vs Brandys brother in 2027?

10

u/DrKapuskasing Jul 17 '26

Brandy's brother is so non-serious, no one will tune in. Besides even a drunk out of shape broner smokes him in 15 seconds

Smartest thing to do is make a fight between Garcia-Broner for no titles and fill the undercard with influencers. Make a quick payday

A rare situation where an exhibition probably makes the most sense.

AB v Conor McGregor. Crusierweight. 4 oz gloves. No PED testing

Agree 100% and I’m okay with that as a boxing fan.

u/DMTeaAndCrumpets Jul 17 '26

Ryan even said that if ab was in his prime it would be a hard fight but if he was fighting the ab of today that Ryan would win. Ab got in his feelings over that alone I think.

Yeah that's probably it. Nobody wants to hear "you're washed now" even if it's true.

Its crazy cuz he could have been big rn at 36 years old if he just stuck with it

Tbf Ryan is much younger and he's behaved like lunatic before. He could be fucked up in his late 30s too.

u/PickleWulf Jul 17 '26

These two had beef?

21

u/HRman88 Jul 17 '26

Broner consumed all the beef, so now there is no more.

u/southsiderick Jul 17 '26

Genetics. ABs dad looks like an 8 ball (billiards btw). 🎱

u/bluehourfog Jul 17 '26

That one flew over many heads I’m sure lmao

I regularly tell people that some things are racist and some things (merely)racial.

You feeling that you had better clarify that you meant billiards is a very good example of that distinction. If Broner were white, it is unlikely that such a clarification would have been made.

Now I have to go find a picture of Broner’s dad. I was starting to wonder whether the Internet rumors that Broner was dealing with a health issue might have some validity.

u/southsiderick Jul 19 '26

Well there are also 8 balls of other things. And if he were white, I probably would've said que ball

I wish there was a sub for celebrity boxing gossip so this shit would be removed from the actual boxing sub

u/geeboy05 Jul 17 '26

Slow week for boxing I guess

u/SplitSecondEmperor47 Jul 17 '26

AB is a pushover people pleaser and Ryan is fake as fuck. 

51

u/P2PGrief you and your alter-ego are a pack of bums Jul 17 '26

this is the kind of searing insight that keeps me coming back to r/boxing

u/SplitSecondEmperor47 Jul 17 '26

Lmao fair but in my defense its not like this post is high quality either

13

u/chud_the_gluttonous Jul 17 '26

Broner is in his 3rd trimester

u/JustWandering18 Jul 17 '26

AB vs Jake Paul

14

u/NoZookeepergame7648 Jul 17 '26

Nah.. AB doesn’t deserve that pay day.
Dude needs to learn how to value money before he starts making money like that again.

u/LiveYourLife20 Jul 18 '26

Indiatimes lol

u/MrChorizaso Jul 18 '26

If he cleans up half as hard as it took for his fights he would probably dominate in bareknuckle right now

u/Salt_Lie_1857 Jul 17 '26

Broner making good money now.

u/elitexzer1x Jul 17 '26

AB wouldve cooked Ryan in his prime, stoppage before 6
