who do you have winning?
After last night im not sure he would even beat soto karass. Karass has a crazy high workrate and a pretty solid chin. Thurman got him out of there but he hits harder than Broner and seems to be a better boxer as well.
What about Rios even? I feel a lot of people will give the edge to Broner based on Rios last fight with Manny but before that fight I feel most on the board thought he was better than Maidana (better inside fighter and I think a better chin).
Not sure where this leaves Broner because I think most of the top guys at 140 and 147 either hit too hard for him or have too high a workrate
maybe Im mistaken but I thought a lot of people looked at brandon as the more skilled of the 2. I personally think he has a better chin and better stamina maybe even a slightly better finisher than Maidana (think Maidana might have more one punch power but brandon is more relentless). The few moments that Maidana let off the gas and Broner was coming forward wouldnt have taken place against Rios.
Each has his own strengths and I dont see Broner beating either of them or any other hard hitting pressure fighter unless he changes his style up completely.
Maidana is the far better fighter and his resume shows it.
Ortiz, Broner, Kotelnyk(robbed), Lopez, Karrass, Morales, Cayo, and the Khan fight was so close that it should be mentioned at least as a good losing performance.
Rios has Alvarado, Acosta, Antillon, A. Peterson.
If Rios is better, he definitely has not shown it, at all.
I think Karass works him.
I honestly feel Berto is a bigger, stronger, busier, harder hitting version of Broner myself.
Agreed about Karass which is why Im not sure where this leaves Broner. Karass is tough as nails but most boxing fans look at him as a tough gate keeper with limited skills if Broner cant beat that stlye I dont see him doing well against pretty much any of the top guys at 140 and 147.
Good chance karass beats broner as well.Sorry but broner has
been exposed,Not once but many times.All u need is a good chin
and decent power and u can beat broner.

And hell f-cking no nobody thought Rios was better than Maidana. Who the hell thought that? Maidana has KO wins over Ortiz, Cayo, and beat Morales, Karrass, and Lopez. Rios doesn't have any where near that resume.
Lol it would be funny if Karrass knocks him out, which I think he's capable of doing because Broner is no Thurman who moves very well, and he certainly does not have the power of Maidana, and finally does not have the chin to take Karass punches like Thurman and Maidana did.
