If anyone has Broner top 10 pfp, shouldn't they have Mikey higher??

[mconstantine]

Their resumes are pretty similar imo. Both have only two wins of real substance.

Demarco = Salido: top 3 guy in a weak, wide open division, would be a fringe contender in a stronger class.

Malignaggi = Martinez: paper titlist and top 10 guy in the division, but clearly below the elite.

So I would say they are equals in terms of P4P standing, and neither is in my top 10.

^^^ Pretty good assessment. Both of these guys are really good. I can see them both being top 5 P4P soon enough. Need to see more of both before I say who is best.

I would still put Broner ahead of Garcia simply because he's already spanned 3 weight classes and won belts in all. Jumping 2 weight classes and beating Malignaggi convincingly was a really good accomplishment. His fight against DeMarco was one of the best performances I've seen in year's. Garcia's equivalent performance was against Salido who is shot.

Saldio's not shot.

Passed his best certainly but he's not shot at all.

it's funny how only around a year ago people thought a bout vs Gamboa would be a mismatch in Yuri's favor...for me, i think it would be the other way around


Mikey IS good enough to brutally expose Gamboa's flaws

Mikey would hurt Gamboa when he lands.

Mikey has deceptively fast hands and would hurt Gamboa..i can even see him stopping Yuri

[Fetta]

Dont have either on my list but they are equal in my eyes right now.

He's very polished, good defense, skilled, technically sound, mixes up his offense, power. He's definitely one for the future in my eyes.

I don't think his chins bad either, Salido might not be in his prime but he still has power, and he's a very hard punching Feathweight.

I'd defnitely favour him over Gamboa but Gamboa's doing nothing at the moment anyway I can't even remember when he was last relevant.

garcia vs gamboa would be a good fight,,,

I favor garcia,, but gamboa is one of those tricky guys that if he puts it all together like in the rogers mtugawa fight, he would have a very solid shot of beating garcia,,

i honestly dont think a fight between the 2 goes the distance,,,

[TOBYLEE1]

dont know if i completely agree with this, Toby...Mikey has kept his dominance as he moved up while Broner has looked less than spectacular at times

Mikey has looked dominant in a cool smooth fashion but is yet to meet a prime fighter on the rise.

[TOBYLEE1]

Mikey is a true professional whose focus is on boxing. Broner is trying to enhance his brand outside of the sport through rapping. Mikey is more like KObe while Broner is more like SHaq.

Thats why everytime you see Mikey fight he looks better or shows a new wrinkle and then interviews the way he does.

Its also why Broner doesn't appear to have improved and he always has some ****** new gimmick in the post fight interview.

I do agree that Mikey has been looking better with every outing. I've seen in his past getting hit with rights. It is not a critical issue because he is a well rounded fighter that is hard to get o because his offense/countering is so good.

Not much seperate these two guys. I'm just hoping that Mikey gets Gamboa
