Who does Broner have to fight to legitimize himself?

[rogdogx]

Maidana is a good start tbh..BTW has Broner signed that contract yet??

Nothing official yet Rome. It's probably gonna take a little while to work out the PPV details. I'd be surprised if Broner is in with anyone other than Maidana next though.

Irrelevant of how much of a prick Sr is, it's true what he has said, Broner is not legitimate yet. For him to be considered a true champion he has to fight and beat Maidana, that's a start and then beat one of either Guerrero/Berto/Ortiz at the weight and I'd have him as a top 10 welter.

Broner is the Klitschko of the light divisions. Even if he eventually beats everybody up he'll still be bummified and ridiculed.

Go Adrien! LOL

Maidana is a good win, if he can pull it off cause I can't see him doing it... Its not gonna prove everything, but it'll show something we haven't seen yet

From what I've seen, he WILL get caught, and get caught solid by Maidana, and feel his power. If he can take it, of if he can show he avoid the power for an entire 12 rounds, I'll be more than impressed... Especially if he wins

The one big question the Maidana fight will answer is whether Broner can take a punch from a puncher. From a skill standpoint, I struggle to see how Maidana wins outside of a KO. It would be his most credible win to date. I agree its a step in the right direction. But he is now going to be a PPV commodity and is already featured in the middle of the P4P list. This guy atleast says he's willing to fight everybody. If he's serious about that his best wins won't be against Demarco & Malignaggi for long.

why do you say that? If Broner beat Maidana, Guerrero, Brook, Khan, Pacquiao, Garcia, Matthysse in the next 4 years or so, why would anyone claim he still isn't legit? Are you just a butthurt Broner fan? lol come on man, the guy is already ranked top 10 p4p, boxing writers, magazines and tv networks t#would cum like a ***in waterfall if Broner had that resume. He'd be spoken about as GOAT. :bukkake:

with his personality that is no doubt true. the one problem he won't have in common with the Klitschko bros is a lack of quality opposition though. Unless he ends up being as good as Floyd, which doesn't appear to be the case after the Malignaggi fight.

That would be a hell of a resume. And all makeable fights if he's willing outside of pacman. I'm sure he would be in the top 3 P4P across the board with wins over Guerrero & Matthysse alone.

he already did that when he beat demarco, the best 135lb fighter in the world at the time. other than that his opposition hasnt always been great, but hes fought some good fighters he doesnt get enough credit for beating. litzau is one, not a great fighter but solid to say the least. the way broner dismantled him was impressive. paulie is another, again not a world beater but a solid two weight world champion. considering that broner jumped up two weightclasses to beat him at such a young age that is an impressive win too.

he hasnt earned all the praise he as got with these wins, certainly doesnt deserve to be on the p4p list. but that doesnt mean who he has beat counts for nothing, not at all.

maidana is overrated as hell but would serve as another good not great opponent, which he deserve some credit for. id rather he go back down to 135 and clean up the division though, there are some good fights. abril and if burns ever finds the courage him too. after that 140 and later 147 when he grew into the division naturally.

I can't lie bro,that DeMarco win was a weak son..I never rated DeMarco highly and Broner was clearly to big to still be at LW..I would say solid win,nothing tho to really elevate him..Which is why this question is still a legit one..

I agree,he let his mouth write a check..His azz will have to cash it tbh..If he fights anyone other then who the fans picked(from his own mouth)which was Maidana..He's not gonna look good at all..

Hes still a prospect. Accept it.
