My theory is that Broner's stamina isn't so good which is why he has to make such a ridiculous conscious effort to pace himself. Flat footed, lack of footwork, Poor punch output all are problems he has, and they are all tied together. I remember on one occasion he even asked Floyd how he lasts 12 rounds(Granted he could have been talking more about the chess match aspect and giving your opponent different looks over 12 rounds).
Who Has More Punching Power At 147 - Malignaggi, Bradley Or Broner?

Dude, Broner had ONE FIGHT at the weight. His power can't be properly assessed yet. And his opponent (Paulie) was a granite chinned guy who has never been knocked out.
Bradley had four fights at welter but look at his opposition. Even Abregu, by far his worst opponent at the weight, is a solid, tough as nails fringe world class guy. Pacquiao and Marquez are pound for pounders and known for having very good chins (the latter has never been stopped). And if Bradley was as feather fisted as you are trying to imply, he couldn't have prevented Provo from eating him alive after that first round.
Oh, and Paulie's win over Senchenko was a cut stoppage, not an actual KO. So if you were trying to prove Paulie is the most powerful of the three, then try again.
(Btw I don't even know why I typed all this out. Everyone knows it, even you. You are probably either trolling or championing Paulie because your beloved Khan beat him.)Comment

But that still demonstrates a good chin, or more specifically good powers of recovery.. Anyone can get dropped at anytime, "chin" is really not the main contributory factor in getting dropped - it can be your foot position, being countered while you're off-balance, your awareness or preparation for the incoming shots, whether you're weight-drained etc.. So many differing factors can contribute towards a knockdown, it's rarely chin alone.. What's important is what happens after you get dropped.. Now Marquez is known for recovering very quickly and then being able to implement his own game plan..Comment
