Defeated Broner says he will be champion again

By Daily Sports on July 31, 2017

Adrien Broner (33-3, 24 KOs) isn’t fazed by his loss to Mikey Garcia (37-0, 30 Kos) from last Saturday night. Broner says he’ll fight Garcia again if he wants to. He’ll fight him in California if he wants to do a rematch. If not, Broner is going to sit down with his adviser Al Haymon and map out which direction to take his career.

Broner, 28, chose not to attend the post-fight press conference following his 12 round unanimous decision loss to Garcia at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York.

Broner lost the fight by the scores 116-112, 116-112 and 117-111. The judges’ scores were fair. There was no dispute about Garcia being the better man. What Broner didn’t like was how Mikey ran from him in the later part of the fight. “You win some you lose some,” said Broner to Fighthype after his fight with Garcia. “No, he ran. We’ve been there before. I’ll be champion again. This is part of boxing. At the end of the day, not everybody is undefeated like Floyd Mayweather. When it comes to history and the greats, not everybody is undefeated. Everybody go 1, 2 or 3 losses. It’s what you do after the loss,” said Broner.

“For sure, he was definitely going on the decline, but he was up on the scorecards, so he played the game,” said Broner about Garcia. “I ain’t mad at him. I’m happy for him. I’ll be world champion real soon. I just turned 28. My career ain’t over. I got a long ways to go. We going to go to the drawing board with Al Haymon. We’re going to do what’s best for me,” said Broner.
