Comments Thread For: Arum: Crawford More Talented, Dedicated Than Broner

[Rome-By-Ko]

It won't matter too much against Maidana, because his footwork is poor as well.

If he were in with someone like Crawford who can control the range, and with his lateral movement Broner will be chasing ghosts all night and getting outworked when Crawford steps in, then out again.

Broner can not stand in front of Maidana like he's been doing for his last few fights..Standing right in front of his opponent not showing respect..Maidana is a dangerous puncher and Broner is no Floyd..

Litzu, Perez was a good fighter, Ponce, Demarco. Compared to Crawford...Oh wait, we cant compare.

Other than DeMarco, as I already said, none of those guys were the best of anything.

i have no doubt broner will stand in front of maidana. thats his style. say what u want about the kid but hes more fighter than boxer and thats what ppl refuse to understand with all these floyd comparisons.

Didn't look too good against PDL, close close fight.

I can see talent, and I can see hype, I know which one Crawford is

Yea he's unproven. He's a regluar defensive fighter. A pernell, a pep. Something we have already seen before. Broner has a mayweather-james Toney thing going on. I notice you ducked my comment about the Paulie fight.

Well I say Floyd,cause he tries to use Floyd defensive style..He is not great at it tho(maybe he's still working on it)which against a fighter like Maidana could cause him an issue..I'm not saying Broner is not(or can not be)a great fighter..I just see somethings in his game that makes him look very beatable..Esp against a fight with tools like Crawford,or power like Maidana..

WTF? I don't even...

He was even close to doing that against Paulie.

If these two guys fight it not going to be a war.

But against Paulie he jumped up 2 weight classes, and his body wasnt used to the weight. His body was too lazy to slip punches like he normally does, or catch punches. He didnt even try to throw any combinations. That fight blinded yall from the abyssmal amount of skills and defense, headmovement, he displayed at the lower weights. Once he settles in the weight class, he will get back to doing what he normally does. That Paulie fight didnt fool me not one bit.

I did not say that Broner was not versitile,I also only highlighted what I thought he need to improve on..I've been following Broner for sometime now,I've never been impressed with his footwork tbh...So I hope your right,when ya say he can do it all..

Broner is no Mayweather,he can be touch from his shell..He better not stand in front of Maidana,I don't care what ya talking about..He will need footwork against Maidana..

When has he been touched in his shell? Against Paulie? Like I said prior, he jumped up two weight classes, and people let that fight blind them from the IMMENSE amount of defense, slipping, head movement, countering he did at the lower weights. To me it seemed like his body was too lazy to try to slip punches against Paulie. He just did the shoulder roll the entire fight trying to walk him down, and he was too lazy to throw his impulsive combinations. Im not fooled by that fight. Once he settles in his body, everyone will be back to saying how he is Floyd 2.0 And I barely even like Broner.

Yet all of them where better than Crawford's complete legacy lol
