Comments Thread For: “Fighting Words” - Make or Break for Canelo and Broner

Broner is going to get beat down again. He doesn't belong at 147. He has strength but not enough to do significant damage to any of the guys up there. Maidana is going to walk him down again.

Broner doesnt punch correctly. he is fast and flashy to the target, he doesnt
turn his hands over or punch through the target. at 135 where he hydrated 15 lbs he could do that to smaller opponents, against jr ww and ww of the elite he gets destroyed. plus his feet are slow, no foot agility or lateral movement. cant fight going back and doenst defend properly. he also doesnt use a proper jab and doesnt know how to crowd or clinch, only push illegally. broner has a lot of flaws. plus he over eats and puts on too much weight. a gifted athlete just many flaws

Alvarez has plenty to prove. He's overrated. Who has he fought of note besides Mayweather? An overrated and recently exposed Trout? Undersized Cotto and Lopez? Washed-up Mosely & Cintron? The best are defined by beating the best.

Broner was played up to be Mayweather's successor, but he just isn't all that. Maidana is a good tough fighter with enough power & skill to expose the overrated.

If we're talking about last fights, Canelo lost to the best but the same can't be said of Broner. The problem with Canelo, even if he was supremely ready the night he fought Floyd he'd still lose and still look average, anybody would. Broner on the other hand was used like mop cleaning up a kiddie spill, but it was done by decent fighter not the PFP #1. In that light, Broner looks less than average when he's pressed.

Canelo sells on personality? I didn't realise he even had one.

If both fights are rematches, I would agree with this author. Broner is taking the shortcut. Plain and simple. If they both lose, Broner would have been defeated by one fighter only. Not Canelo.

Broner will get beat again, unless the judges are paid for. Broner you humped Chino in the fight, control your tendencies save it for your man, then you rolled around the floor trying to fake an injury to try to win when you were getting your ass kicked. Broner is a phoney and a Mayweather wanna-be.

I totally agree with you about Broner. The worst clone ever. Did you see him trying to imitate Mayweather in that fight? Broner Vs Berto would be good for him but he would still get beat most likely.
