    Lemme see...Broner fans think Thurman is no match for Broner. But Thurman schools Maidana. But they want Maidana for Broner instead of Thurman. Does that make sense? Is this an attempt to avoid Thurman or what? I don't know the outcome of any of these fights, but these guys need to be consistent. If you say Thurman is the equivalent of Berto during his time, then Maidana would fare no better in an unfamiliar division.

      Broner's defense is above average, at best. Thurman can land on him.

        3. Power is overrated.

        4. Ring generalship is descent.

        5. Not a combination puncher



        Who beats Broner?

        1. Mathysse definitely.

        2. Of course Floyd

        3. Bradley possibly edges him

        4. Pac


        That's how I'm feeling right now.



        I disagree, he just knows how to use it wisely. He believes in his skills enough to let the KO come naturally. The first time he put everything on a single shot (The last punch of the fight) he knock Chavez down without hitting him right on the button, I believe he has real power.

            TS is massively overrating Boner here. The Paulie fight showed that he isnt ready for WW yet. Thurman would beat the donkey out of Boner at this point, and lets not forget that Thurman is also improving with every fight.

            His attitude stinks as well and I can see him getting beaten very soon by himself as much as anything. If he looks up to Floyd as much as he says he does, then he should pay attention to and try and emulate Floyd's professionalism.
