    Roger thought Vernon Forest was special. That's the only modern day fighter outside of Floyd that I recall roger being high on...

        Sr. once compared Pac to one of the Sugar Rays...before insinuating he was on something.

            I am starting to lose my luster for Broner. He is looking like he is "part of the pack" instead of ahead above the rest. I will be patient though, he is still young and improving.

              Again, Broner is 23 and hasn't even grown to a full fledged WW. Even Mayweather, when bringing up Pacquiao mysterious weight gain, and then in return being asked about his weight gain...responded by saying "It was a process, it took years for me to grow into a WW, years!".

              Broner can handle plenty of guys at 147 but I rather he move down to 140. He needs to stop showboating, being dismissive of his opponents, that taunting and clowning needs to stop, that's minimizing room to score. I hope he changes that.

                  How come? Please correct me if I'm correct (which I'm not) but said he was a potential ATG a couple of fights ago, just before he fought Lil Gav Rees.

                  But then, you also said that if Deontay Wilder became HW champ, he would make more money than Floyd makes now.

                    broner has a good defensive stance with his shoulder roll and all but he hasn't really shown much defensively other than that. he doesn't give his opponents other defensive angle aside from his left shoulder ready to roll and his left arm covering his body. he lacks footwork and lateral movements to befuddle his opponents. he doesn't move his head a lot too. he's not a moving target that's why he gets hit often.

                    offensively, he got good power and good hanspeed but he got some offensive flaws too. he was walking down paulie but he's not throwing punches while moving in. he need to plant his leadfoot to throw punches. there were times when paulie was teeing off on him with combinations and leaving himself open at the same time but broner can't take advantage especially when paulie was moving. he's counterpunching ability is not that good imo. i like garcia more as a counterpuncher than broner.

                    of course he still has a lot of room for improvement but this floyd comparison should stop. he's not even close to what floyd was at his age in all aspect of boxing.

                      Quick, someone call up on Bonehead, he might be on suicide watch, after his daddy said he should have knocked out a washed up fighter and his spiritual uncle said he's less of a fighter than J'leon Love
