Why not fight at a weight he can make without to much drying out? I think he would be in the mix at the top in the 140 pound class. I think Garcia and Matthysse would beat him. He would have a shot at beating Khan, Judah and other good 140 pounders.

Dude gave Rios a ****ing boxing lesson.Last edited by Holliday; 07-22-2012, 10:34 AM.

He is allowed to sit at range and pick his shots. Maybe the crappy pressure fighters he has fought so far haven't come close to beating him, but good pressure fighters would. Matthysse would kill Broner, and Rios and Peterson would have good chances of beating him.
Get inside his range, make him work, make him uncomfortable. That's the key, that's what would work.

Originally posted by KnockUTheFukOut View PostMatthysse yes he can apply the pressure and give Broner Problems, never said he couldn't but Broner does somethings that could give him problems as well, that is no clear cut win for Matthysse like some people are trying to make it out to be like Broner would get blown away like Humberto Soto did...but Rios...HAHAHA Broner Pick Rios apart EASILY and he hits much harder then Abril, as for Peterson again NOT A PRESSURE FIGHTER EITHER, he applied Pressure on Khan because Khan can't fight inside or take body shots well but that is not how he usually fights
We haven't seen Broner fight anyone remotely close to these types of fighters, so pitting him against these guys two divisions above him is premature. I don't know what anyone has seen from him to suggest he walks into 140 and is able to beat all these fighters. He has not shown that at all.

Originally posted by bojangles1987 View PostPeterson was a pressure fighter against Bradley and did it quite a bit against Ortiz as well. He started out as a boxer, but he has usually resorted to pressure fighting in his biggest fights, because he's pretty good at it. Especially lately, he seems to have accepted that he is best when he goes inside and works.

But We shall see over the next few years!
