    Just let the fighter grow at his own pace.

      Broner is already today's Mayweather with punching power, so I don't see the need. All He needs to do is to continue what He's doing and maybe He will be even larger.

        We are gonna need new stars soon, Mayweather is 35 and Pacquiao 33.

        I agree he should not be pushed too quickly but in Broner we already have a ready made, ****y but skill full replacement for Floyd (although not nearly as good, IMO). Sooner he is famous the better for boxing.

          LOL at Broner being the new Mayweather, this kid is not even the new Berto.

          Floyd shouldn't waste his time with him, he already has real talented fighters under his wing : Dirrell and Gamboa.

            Floyd's career is winding down and he is starting to endorse some of the up and comers like Broner. Ward and the Dirrell brothers. Broner and Floyd pretty much have the same team with GBP and Haymon and it's clear Floyd is Broner's idol. I believe once Floyd is done fighting Floyd will keep his business relationship with Al Haymon and do Haymon favors like endorse Broner.

                  You don't think Broner is a real talent? Broner's style is very similar to Floyd's and he is a future star. No, he's not as good as Floyd but he is very talented. Broner is 13 years younger than Floyd, that's who he grew up watching. It's nothing wrong with wanting to be like your idol. Floyd wants as many young talented fighters in his stable as possible so why say no to Broner just because of the fact you have Dirrell and Gamboa. I think it would be smart for Floyd to try to get in good with Broner if he wants Mayweather Promotions to become a viable Promotion company in boxing because Mayweather's current fighters like Vargas and Latimore are very average.

                    I really enjoy watching philly shell fighters like Mayweather, Toney and now Broner somewhat.. Would be good if the Mayweather boxing gym keeps preaching this defense and produces more world champions in the same mold.

                      Broner just has to keep winning and acting like a moron and he'll adopt Floyd's current fan base.
