Lamont Peterson vs. Adrien Broner at 140

[BUNGALOWS]

Paulie and Ponce didn't really damage Broner either. I agree with the post above. Broner doesn't transition from defense to offense. When his opponent throws he shells up. Peterson's work rate and pressure could cause serious problems. I can't imagine Broner walking Peterson down and backing him up which seems to be Broner's only way to be effective offensively.

Agree. Peterson has a good work rate, and is a dog. Broner would get baptized.

Give me Peterson

This would be a very good fight,,,

I would rather see danny-pete,, but if this fight gets made, i have no problems with it..

I think its really a 50/50 type fight,, interesting style matchup

Are you saying the fact that they are friends is reason for the fight not happening ? LOL thats weak man, what these american boys on???

I'm not pulling stuff out of my ass. That's what Broner said.

That'd be weak. Scott and Wilder are finally doing it.... let's see if Pascal/Stevenson will

[Ringlife]

I gotta go with Peterson by dec.

If Broner goes to 140 and Peterson stays it has to happen.

You completely dismissed the rest of my post tho. Maidana had the power to damage Broner. I don't think Peterson does.

Peterson's workrate could still beat broner. Paulie had to power but when he threw all broner did was cover up.

Broner does not have matthyse power either and has very low output.

[bojangles1987]

Broner has poor footwork, a low workrate, is incredibly open to body shots, questionable power above lightweight, and shells up when someone takes the fight to him.

Think of the fighter we've seen at 147 so far. How is that not tailor made for one of the best inside fighters and body punchers in the sport, who is at his best bringing the fight to opponents but still has the defensive responsibility of a fighter trained for outside fighting?

Peterson would get a close decision. He's mentally stronger than Broner. He can **** and box. He would be able to adjust if needed. Broner would stand there and tell everyone he's not getting hurt while offering nothing in return. Also, Peterson has been in with better competition and held his own. We saw what happened to Broner when he stepped up in competition.
