    Can Broner take over boxing if he works on his craft?

    If he improves his ethic and increases his output can he do it? He certainly has the charisma, good power and handspeed etc, and a granite chin. When Floyd and Pac retire I think he can take over the game. Not many young stars who can hang with him that are around his weight class imo.

      No he sucks, if boxing was fair, he would have 3 loses on his record already, Ponce, Quintero, Maidana figure that in with his mediocre wins over bums and midgets then you see the truth that is broner. Broner is no more then a hyped up boxing gimmick that generates money so the power that be will try everything to keep him winning as much as possible hence his next match up with molina (who is a midget bum), open your eyes you see the pattern yet?

        Hopefully he can gain some momentum just so he can get folded again at a somewhat high level. That would be ideal.

        But like you said, he's not that good but he'll still be treated like a draw so prepare for easy fights made to order for him for a while.

          nope. he's a little above average at best, all hype, and NO charisma. all he does is imitate floyd's persona, but can't back it up in the ring.
          after his embarrassing loss to maidana, he can no longer try to act like little floyd. he's done.

            People giving Broner a tough time smh dude is only 24 far from reaching his prime, Maidana beating was a blessing in disguise. He jumped 2 weight classes and faced the biggest puncher in his second bout at 147 give the dude a break.

              He's good entertainment, I don't dislike him as much as I did before but I think he'll be one of those guys who lose the majority of their large scale fights. He's still a big draw and will headline some PPVs down the road.

                He should have stayed at 135 and try to unify the division. Then move up to 140.
                Jumping two weight classes was a dumb move. You have to be a phenom to do that and be successful against top welterweights, and Broner is not a phenom.

                  He was a Champion already, Champions don't and shouldn't have people making excuses for him. Champions dont get a break, no redo here.

                    to me he's undefeeated until they make it clear what Maidana took the 12th round. but yea he still got alot left, this fight was a very good learning experiance he coming back with heat, feel sorry for whoever lights he putting out the next time he fights. I got a feeling he trying to make a statement
