    While I agree that Broner would get punked out by Pacquiao, to say that he's mediocre is way off the mark. That's Arum being a **** as usual. If he was under the Top Rank banner he would be the next coming of a boxing Greek God according to Arum.

      Are people seriously saying rios/alvarado which both at 140 would destroy Broner. Ain't a fan of either rios or mile high mike but let's be real..if he had trouble with Maidana due to his size, those guys are just as big and i'll say alvarado has faster hands than Maidana. If a fight between Broner and Rios or alvarado gets made i'll put up ten to one odds that Broner loses to either man.

        If Floyd & Marquez Won't Fight, You Stay Active With Whoever Is Available

        Marquez chose Alvarado of all people rather than Provo. Beat up on Marquez for that decision, blatantly choosing Alvarado on the heels of getting destroyed by Provo. Marquez claimed he already won the title Provo has, so he chose Alvarado.. just one of the dumbest comments I've ever heard. Rather than win that that title for a second time. You'd rather fight the b-level fighter who just lost that title by way of an 8 round beatdown. That's as dumb as Bradley saying he struggled in the first fight with Pacquiao due to not wearing any socks.

            Nobody Said Rios OR Boner Were Competitive Options; How About Marquez & Alvarado!

            No character there choosing Alvarado over Provo who was the belt holder and just train wrecked Alvarado. ******. Marquez could fight Matthysee

                It's just annoying how people don't see things in perspective. Broner is not a mediocre talent, he's actually quite talented, it's his technical faults that hold him nack

                  I think the fight would sell decently well. But from a competitive stand point I don't know how well Broner would do. Ever since his move up from Lightweight he has struggled against everyone.

                    For Arum, it all comes down to money. Pac fighting Broner doesn't make business sense. Broner has barely any fans. Put any Mexican fighter in the ring with Pac and it will do more PPV buys than a fight with Broner.

                      ill take that bet maidana is not comparable to any other fighter so its pointless to even try even rios is way different
