PRESS CONFERENCE & FACE OFF
PREDICTION
Broner is expected to win this fight even after a 25 month layoff. Although he’s been out of the sport, his power and speed have always played a part throughout his career. Santiago is undefeated due to his ring IQ and crushing power, but against Broner he’s simply outmatched. If Broner puts his hard hat on and cuts the antics, this one won’t last too long.
