Originally posted by FloydvsPac View PostAgreed on all points. What I said from the beginning was that I was expecting a different Broner this time against Maidana...less flat-footed. He has the athleticism to box bigger guys. Floyd has great defense because he knows when to use his legs and when to stay in the pocket. Broner is only 24. If Pacquiao can become a better boxer in his late 20s, then why can't Broner be less flat-footed?
I think what made Broner overconfident was his win against DeMarco. I was expecting Mayweather-Castillo and we got Mayweather-Gatti. Then he moves up to 147 and thinks he can fight the same way. That's a kind of arrogance that Floyd doesn't even have.

Maidana did some great work! I knew Maidana would really test Broner because of how often Broner allows himself to get. For what it's worth, Broner showed some resiliency, but he got his cards pulled by a very battle tested veteran who is only improving.
What a win for Thurman! That was a great showcase of resiliency with him closing the show to boot.
Well done, gents!

I was expecting the same Broner. I couldn't call who would win though because I see Maidana as a streaky fighter. You never know which version will show up. And Broner, I wasn't sure if he would be able to deal with Maidanas size and power.
