P4P who you "think" has the best skills, not who you've beat. Broner deserves top ten.

If Broner belongs there, why don't we put Canelo Alvarez in at #6 or Peter Quillin at #7? Oh yeah, because in order to be considered one of the best you actually have to beat someone who's worth a damn. How can we really know if Broner is one of the ten best fighters if he hasn't gotten a big win? Berto was looking really dominant against tomato cans until he started facing the A-level opposition, did he deserve a spot there too?

Broner doesn't deserve to be in the Top 10, but I already see people forgetting he completely whupped DeMarco, the #1 LW at the time. He shouldn't be in the Top 10, but he has a couple good wins over DeMarco and Ponce.

The Ring has been reduced to little more than a promoters marketing pamphlet.

Ponce? Most people thought he lost that fight.

DeMarco was a decent fighter though, nothing more. Broner has a lot of skills, but we don't know how good they are until he puts them on display against an actual top fighter. As has been mentioned, Berto was looking like a superstar at that level.

As for the Ponce 'win', that was a pretty clear loss in truth.

I thought it was a draw. The early rounds were Ponce's, the middle were Broner's, and late neither guy really separated himself.

Before the DeMarco fight, there were loads of people saying Broner would be exposed by a southpaw who's got height on him and that Broner wasn't really that good. He destroyed him, and now we still have people saying Broner doesn't have a good win yet.

Broner shouldn't be Top 10 though, he should have to get at least a couple more good wins before getting into the Top 10.

[The Hammer]

P4P who you "think" has the best skills, not who you've beat. Broner deserves top ten.

Then Ricky Burns should be there too. His resume is similar to Broner's.

In reality, both should be somewhere between 11 and 20.
