ADRIEN BRONER BOXING FIGHT VIDEO

  • 9 years ago
With 22 pro Boxing fights under his belt, you have to comprehend that junior lightweight prospect Adrien Broner (Born 28 July 1989) has some time to go before he reaches the Hall of Fame level, but after remarkably defeating all his foes thus far, it's hard not to get excited about the Cincinnati cyclone.
A standout amateur who came up in the same gym as 2000 US Olympians Ricardo Williams Jr. and Dante Craig, Broner was boxing - along with his twin brother Andre - before he even turned ten years old. And as he grew older, the results were even more remarkable, as he won the high-status Silver Gloves tournament in 2002 and 2003 and made it to the semifinals of the 2005 Junior Olympics.
By 2008, the pro game beckoned for Adrien Broner, and he made his debut on May 31st with a 32 second destruction of Allante Davis. His next two foes didn't fare much better, with neither David Warren Huffman (1:20) or Ramon Flores (2:11) getting out of the opening round.
On November 22, 2008, Broner made it 4-0 by stopping Terrance Jett in six rounds in his Las Vegas debut on the Ricky Hatton vs Paul Malignaggi undercard, and 14 days later he was back in Vegas, taking out Scott Furney in just 74 seconds.
2009 continued Broner's hit parade as he scored impressive decision wins over Jose Lugo, Eric Ricker, and Fernando Quintero, showing that he's more than just a knockout artist. That doesn't mean that Broner has abandoned his home run swing though, as he also found time to knock out five foes last year, including 15-1 prospect William Kickett, who the Cincinnati product halted in six rounds in June.
On January 23, 2010, Broner began his third calendar year as a pro with a fourth round TKO of Roberto Acevedo to improve to 14-0 with 11 KOs, and after halting Rafael Lora in a single round less than four months later. After being lowered to the ring in a cherry picker, he won his first pro title with a sixth round TKO of Carlos Claudio on June 19th that earned him the vacant WBC Youth Intercontinental crown.
Broner then defeated Guillermo Sanchez, Llido Julio (TKO) and John Revish (RTD). He then went to defeat his toughest opponent yet Daniel Ponce De Leon in a 10 round unanimous decision on his HBO Boxing After Dark Debut in March 2011.
June 2011 Jason Litzau did not make it out of the 1st round when Broner pummeled him to a 2:58 win for the USNBC Super Featherweight title again on HBO's Boxing After Dark.
His latest win named him not only the second youngest world boxing champion, he won the WBO Junior lightweight title in front of a hometown crown in Cincinnati Ohio when Vincente Rodriguez hit the canvas at the 1:43 mark of the 3rd round for Broner's 3rd consecutive fight on HBO's Boxing After Dark.
Broner was quoted "This is what I have dreamed of ALL MY LIFE, this is why I work so hard in the gym everyday all day".
