No, he will never be half the fighter that Ward is, or Rigondeaux. Hes a fun exciting fighter like Berto, but with mildly better defense, but not much.
I'd like to think so. He has a lot of talent, but I'm just not sure if he's #1 P4P worthy. He needs some very good wins against elite talent in the next 5 years for that to happen.
I honestly can't see it happening unless he takes a very easy road to super stardom or actually corrects the glaring holes in his style. Being that he's an Al Haymon fighter, I expect him to do the former rather than the latter.
I firmly believe that he's the only boxer that has a legitimate chance at beating Floyd. With that said though, he needs to get his life outside of the ring in order if he wants to be a superstar in boxing.
no. diego chaves, thurman, marquez, bradley, matthysse, mayweather, pacquiao, guerrero and even abregu beat him. n y is it taking so long for the maidana vs broner fight to be official?:Thinkingo
Not if he keeps trying to imitate Floyd becuz he does not have his skills. He sucks at trying to copy Floyd
He needs to find his own style. Until then hell no
On the contrary, he doesn't imitate Floyd on one of the most important things....dedication.
Instead he goes on a rap tour and gets a beer belly.
Broner will get beat early in his career.
He is 23 right now but will lose as soon as he fights a very busy fighter.
You can't stay in that shell and let fighters out work you like he did against Paulie.
I feel khan,Alexander,Matthysse,Garcia,Guerrero,Ortiz,Canelo,Cotto,Pacquiao,Marquez, Bradley can all beat him right now.
Broner better add some versatility to his fight game.
You can't fight every fighter the same. (with just the shoulder roll)
He already has 2 split decision wins on his record. (from being out worked)
He can be out worked.
Anybody that gets combos landed on by Gavin Reese isn't lb4lb material IMO... Repeatedly got tagged by Gavin effen Reese. That & Broner doesn't seem to have the discipline going by how big he gets in between fights. In about a year or more he's going to be the next Andre Berto.
He has the talent, but ironically, he doesn't have the "hard work and dedication" it takes, despite the fact he idolizes the man that represents that slogan.
