      Dude, if the Broner that fought Paulie shows up against Chino then Broner is getting beat down.

      Floyd Sr. Is on record saying that once Broner fights someone with a pulse, that shoulder roll is going right out of the window. It's static. His foot work is poor. He isn't the KO artist he was at the lower weights. Broner is very hittable and I think Maidana has a good chance of stopping him, because we all know the fix will be in if it goes to the cards.

      I'm not sold on Broner; at ALL. Sure he has fast hands, mediocre boxing skills but that's about it.

      Ortiz Thurman Crawford all beat Broner in my opinion. And I think Ghost gives him the Berto treatment.

        I hear you.

        But if Broner wins, what will be your reaction? And I mean, clearly wins. No robbery.

            Good for him?
            Never heard the rumors of him being 170, but if it's true.... well good for him fighting in the SFW and LW division

                Think Broner could do a similar job to Maidana like De Marco?
                Fairly similar styles so but Maidana obviously more proven more than De Marco.

                Hopefully a good Maidana shows up not like the one that struggled vs Alexander

                  Even in Floyds 24/7 when he made a brief cameo they said he packed on a lot of pounds while he was on tour with Lil Wayne ha. but at the the press conference with Chino he looked bulky. Maidana likes to put on some bit of weight too while away from sport so the pair of them are on same boat!

                  Cant wait for it now!

                    Then I would think he's a contender at 147; and I will give Broner props. Maidana is no cherry pick. He comes to fight and can ****, if Broner beats him with no robbery, then good.

                    But i have mixed feelings on the Paulie fight, I don't think he did enough to beat the champion. He sure as hell didn't look like a 13:1 favorite that's for sure
