This is great. Broner lost to a C level PDL struggled with Paulie, and now he's supposed to be p4p worthy? His defense is not all that and Floyd Sr said it himself. Once he's in with someone with a pulse, that shoulder "roll" is going out of the window. I'm not even making that up look up the article when senior said it. Broner has talent but he's not p4p worthy and out of all the belt holders at 147 he will be the first to lose his

If there is any kind of stoppage, it will not be because of Broner's power, it will be because the speed of his punches cutting up Maidana's face. Make no mistake, Maidana will finish this fight standing up. He could go down to the body, but Broner doesn't look like much of a body puncher.
Remember I said it here, Broner is very stationary, has no footwork and his defense is very, very flawed. Maidana will catch Broner plenty of times because Broner likes to come to fight and his defense doesn't match his stance. You are supposed to be a highly skilled, highly defensive fighter to use that stance effectively, and Broner is a fighter/puncher not a boxer, he uses the philly shell just a little better than Berto, and Berto was pathetic using it. So Maidana will find him more than what people are imagining.

But you have to realize Maidana is much bigger and he is a machine, he is able to take flush shots and with a fighter as stationary as Broner, Maidana will definitely hit Broner back cleanly, but he won't win. Maidana will just look outmatched over.

He is supposed to look impressive vs Maidana... That's why he was matched up vs a face first brawler.

But I don't see Broner as a top 5 p4p fighter. Floyd, ward, danny garcia, wlad, sergio, tim, froch and rigo all deserve top 5 status ahead of Broner IMO.

A win over Broner should put Maidana in Broner's spot in the Ring list.
Maidana p4p #8, as of this December. Not bad huh?
If maidana won i doubt they would put him in the top 10.

Broner is definately in a test. Maidana will not be that easy and will test that chin. Broner should win but hes gonna be in a battle for sure
