    Best Fighter Adrien Broner Has Faced

    is Ponce De Leon and I'm not even sure he won. Perez, Escobedo and Demarco were just terrible, terrible fighters with no strength, no power, no technique whatsoever, no head movement at all.

    Broner is very talented but the most talented fighter he's faced so far is Ponce De Leon and this just goes to show you how bad his resume really is. At this age to be compared to Mayweather is a travesty.

    Gamboa in his 19th and 21st fight fought Salido and De Leon and made it easy.

    Mayweather fought genaro Hernandez in his 18th fight then Corrales 7 fights later, putting on classics.

    This is clearly a hate thread and not so much against Broner becuase he is very talented, this is directed much more so against his management team because he is following the Andre Berto path, the path of least resistence, he is being moved very carefully as far as his opposition. He's also more talented and more disciplined than Berto, but is this true or just an illusion due to the soft competition that he's faced? If Floyd was with Al from the get go, I don't think he would've developed into the fighter that he is today.

    He should move up and fight the Ghost now but instead he'll have the next available bum at 135. Meanwhile guys at 140 are all sharks fighting against each other getting no recognition we get Broner feasting on slow swimming tuna and getting praised as the next big thing.

      Hahahahaha

      DeMarco was the #1 LW in the world, coming off 2 good wins over Top 10 LW's. There were also tons of people on here who said DeMarco would trouble Broner a lot and than he had a very good chance at winning.

      And if you've watched the DeMarco fight and the Ponce fight, Broner has come a long way since then. He's a much better fighter. I'd say were entering Broner's prime now.

        p4p ponce may be the best, but demarco was a good sized lightweight.


        ponce was at 122 for a while, and has gone back to 126 since the broner fight.


        my vote is for demarco. broner gets better with every fight.

          Ponce.

          I said before the DeMarco fight that it would be easy work. He lacked technique and didn't have power, he was the perfect opponent for Broner to look spectacular, which he did. Broner is a tremendous talent, but he doesn't have a resume yet...he's got plenty of time to build it.

            Well, Guerrero called out Broner who fights like Floyd and Guerrero just beat down a guy that tried to fight like Floyd. Broner talks about fighting the best but he doesn't even want to try to fight a Guerrero. Btw, are there any specific days I should mark on my calendar so I can speak about a specific fighter. For example, Monday is for Cotto, Tuesday is for Mike Anchonda, Wednesday is for Khan, so Sunday can't be for Broner smh

              Demarco is a straight up bum, the division is a straight up garbage. The division was relevant when it had JMM and Juan Diaz and still wasn't a great division. 130 is a much better division, Broner can't make weight though, 140 is the second best division to 168 but is Broner calling out Mathyse, Garcia, Bradley, Peterson, Rios, Khan, Zab, etc. I mean you've got so many guy - Zab too, Alexander at a little heavier weight, Josesito Lopez will fight him at 140, Maidana too. So many, many guys where Broner would have size, speed and possibly some strength advantage because he seems strong. Yet he fights that complete trash at 130 and 135 and the most talented figher he fought he struggled with and we're not talking about a crazy talent, we're talking about moderate talent with Ponce.
