Broner punch output

People keep on saying he needs to throw more punches, the PROBLEM is that he can’t cause he will gas out. If he could throw more punches he would, trust me. Remember in the lower divisions he got away with it because he had power so when he threw his punches he made an impact and guys were more hesitant to trade with him..... at 140/147 he doesn’t carry the same power so his opponents are not afraid to press him, hence, his lack of activity is more visible. I've been saying this forever. Another fighter that's the same way is Tank but it won't really show until he fights a legit 135/140 fighter.

Good points, he can't rely on his power at 147, and he doesn't live the life, didn't build his gas tank in his late twenties, but it's also a mental thing in the ring. I think Broner knew he had to be conservative and rely on power and timing against Santiago, because he didn't have it in the tank to throw a decent amount for 12 rounds, but his power and timing were compromised by the weight and his inactivity, which is why Santiago was pressing without taking punishment. Another problem Broner had was the body work of Santiago, they weren't the most hard or accurate shots, but Santiago landed enough of them to take a toll. Against Pacquiao, Broner was hurt at the end of round 7, Pacquiao punched himself out, and I thought Broner recovered better between rounds because of his age advantage, but because he lacked desire, he sat on the ropes, let Pacquiao step back and recover, didn't take advantage of Pacquiao's age, kept backing up and letting Pacquiao have the momentum.

Not throwing punches is Broner's big weakness. You can't land punches you don't throw. 500 punches a fight is not so bad and even 400 punches a fight is not terrible. But 350 punches or less is terrible for a welterweight. I think Broner just got his as clearly kicked last fight by an unknown guy ranked 93rd in the world by boxrec. I thought it was a terrible decision. Broner was given a gift win by bribed judges because he is the guy those in power have future plans for. His opponent threw and landed well over twice as many punches as Broner and deserved the win. That is how lots of guys can beat Broner. Just attack him and out work him and he goes into a defense mode and won't fight back. It was 3 years ago when he was 28 that Broner threw 500 punches at Vargas. Now at 31 he only throws 338 punches at a cherrypick and needs help from the crooked judges to win. That is less than 30 punches a round.If he can't get his workrate up he can never beat a good fighter without a KO or help on the scorecard from lying judges. Prograis would murder him in my opinion. He probably won't take that fight.

He fights scared. Pathetic.
