Do you think he went on training expeditions like Goku and co., or went out of his way to seek strong opponents? Nobody is lying to badmouth Broli. In fact, it's a compliment in disguise. If Broli was one of those hardworking types who train every day, then he could have easily beaten someone like Cell, given enough time. The fact that he lasted that long against Piccolo, the Saiya-jin, and Oolong without years and years of practice is proof enough of that.
Well, yes, that's all fine and dandy, but as we've seen in the movie, somehow, he knows how to fight, wrestling, the hows and whys, I don't know, but stating that Broly does not know how to fight is just contradicting facts. And honestly, if anyone feels the need to contradict this, just watch the first and the second Broly movies, pay attention to his moves and cross-reference with wrestling moves. THEN come and talk.
I HAVE seen all 3 Broli movies. And yes, I see the wrestling references in his style. Broli
kind of knows how to fight. He at least underwent some basic Saiya-jin combat training with his father, and he probably made up some of his own stuff when he was out smashing planets and whatnot. He wasn't just swinging his arms around. However, he didn't do anything like train for years and years honing his skill and obvious natural talent.
Son Goku and his friends got the 240 volume ultimate guide to martial arts. Broli got a three page summary and a Post-it note that said "Go Wild".
