For the past couple of years safety has come first for Floyd. Broner fights with defense but when he sees he can get a guy out of there he goes for the kill. Mayweather could have done this in many of his fights but did not want to risk getting hit doing it. He could of easily stopped guys like Corley, Baldomir, Judah if he would of stayed in the pocket and fought like Broner fights and counter his opponents in he middle of the ring. Even Hatton didn't belong in the ring that long with Mayweather. Stop being hung up on what Mayweather was, he is currently ranked #1 P4P but yet you bring up the old him because currently Broner uses that Philly Shell style better than he does and is more effective doing so

Let's wait till he gets to 140 and faces guys like Garcia, Matthysee or Rios before we start all this talk.
BTW....Castillo, Corrales >>>>>>anyone Broner has faced (by far).
130 and 135 are both garbage divisions with no good fighters. The ones that are decent are either cans or chinny.

Also Floyd has fought better on the inside against much better opposition, but what you are missing is the fact that Floyd became more cautious against bigger fighters but fought the same aggressive style when he was at LW.
That's why I feel it's best to slow down and wait to see him against bigger JWW and WW's. I guarantee you he won't fight the same way as he is fighting now.

Broner is the King of the month. Let's not get ahead of ourselves, he fought a guy who threw nothing but wide looping punches. I'm not ready to call him the greatest thing since sliced bread just yet.

So I guess my opinion of comparisons is not valid based on the fact that Broner should only be compared to the same age Floyd or that I should wait until Broner gets to weight class Mayweather is now? He uses the style better and take risks which is what I would like to see Floyd do more of since he has the ability, Broner uses the style more effective for fans sake
