Adrien Broner vs. Emmanuel Taylor
Lou Catalano, Staff Writer
Adrien Broner has spoken of cleaning up his act and getting serious about boxing. If he trained well, he should have an easy time with Emanuel Taylor, who just doesn’t have the work rate or talent to keep up with “The Problem.”
I expect loads of them for Taylor. Broner should cruise to a win and then show Jim Gray his penis.
Prediction: Broner

Emanuel Taylor is a skilled challenger and should put a good fight against Adrien Broner early on. My problem with Taylor has always been his output. Sometimes he seems to sleepwalk through rounds and against Broner that will be trouble because for all of his technical deficiencies, Broner is accurate.
Broner will be looking to ooh and ahh the hometown crowd which may or may not be a good thing. As long as Broner doesn’t get too wrapped up in the moment, I think he secure an impressive decision victory. Though to really impress and throw himself in the mix of top 140-pound fighters he will need a show-closing KO against Taylor. I just don’t think he has it in him.
Prediction: Broner
