This place wouldn't exist without opinions. Do I think he's ready right now to move up and take everyone out? No, but I think there's a good chance if they take their time (not too much time) he will be more than ready by the time he gets there. I think he is improving with every fight. I think its ridiculous people keep bring up the Ponce fight, when that was then and this is now. I don't think he will look as good as he did against Demarco in every fight for now on, because that had a lot to do with styles, but it did say something about him as a fighter. Anyone that doesn't see the potential there is blinded for some reason or another. A lot of it has to to with dislike for the guy.
    I'm not bothered though. It's funny how people talk about their opinions and blah blah whilst saying I have to hate Broner, be 'bothered' or a 'hater' for expressing mine?

    I don't even know how you could make the 'its out opinion' arguement whilst trying to discredit..... My. Opinion.

      So, you think Rios beats Broner based on what Rios did to Alverado? Man, those are two different fighters. All Rios proved was he could beat a 140 pound fighter that goes toe to toe with him. What happens when he gets in there with a skilled fighter like Broner? It is very possible the outcome could be very different. Just saying.

          Again, you're putting words in my mouth

          I'm not into triangle theories. I'm saying Rios proved HIMSELF by withstanding and KOing a FORMIDABLE opponent in Alvarado. Thus showing that he is worth his hype. His chin is solid and he has power.


          Where is Broner's test? Where?

            You are showing you are bothered by our opinions of him. That's fine, because we are all like that to a certain degree. Just like I can't stand guys that overrate the Klitschkos.

              That statement makes no sense. I'm showing I'm bothered because I have a difference of opinion and choose to voice it? Wth is the point of posting on a forum if you're not going to voice your opinion?

                I understand what you are saying, but you are basing how good Rios is from his fight with Alverado. I'm saying Alverado is not as good as Broner, but I won't ask you who Alverado beat to make you think he was such a good test for Rios. Its your opinion, I'm fine with that. Even if Broner moved up and beat the best guy at 140 pounds, that wouldn't automatically mean he beats Rios. One fight doesn't prove anything.

                  I'm not comparing Alvarado and Broner's abilities. Alvarado was ready for war with Rios. He was not going to make it easy for him and he does have skill and power. I don't think any reasonable person could disagree with the statement that Alvarado wanted to beat Rios and is not a pillow-fisted tune up.

                  I personally think that Broner's biggest problem will be that he thinks he deserves that p4p ranking, he is buying into his own hype. I don't think he would take a fight with Rios seriously and he would greatly pay for that. Brandon is undeniably strong. He hits hard. Broner hasn't had to deal with a power puncher yet. Unless I've missed something?

                    What you said here shows why you are bothered by my opinion of him.

                    "Everyone is all hyped on Broner cause dude comes in over weight and beats the **** out guys who are naturally much smaller than he is. At 140, he's not gonna be the biggest dog in the yard."
