    Not what does that say about Mayweather...

    But... dem body shots prolly slowed his ass down. Chino was exchanging punches with dat nigga.
    yeah but watching that fight you have to keep in mind that he had skipped an entire weight class, i don't think what he was doing what unprecedented history wise, but it went against the grain. Him not appearing to be as powerful agaisnt someone like Marcos who had been at WW for a while shouldn't have even been a surprise. And even with that, when interviewed, Marcos says Broner got him to here and there

      I think Broner puts his shots together better than Floyd does. He's a more fluid combination puncher than him, especially on the front foot. That's what it takes to stop a guy like Maidana in his tracks. Pot shotting doesn't cut it, which is part of the reason Floyd spent so long with his back to the ropes.

          Floyd marked up Guerrero and Canelo both fights where he threw hard punches to the face. He targeted Maidana body primarily, watch his hip movement and how he out himself in position to hit Maidana body.

            Maidana says they hit equally as hard.

              That would be a great question a reporter can ask Marcos Maidana.

                that is true he was mostly going to the body

                    I think it appears that Broner has more raw power but he doesn't have half of Maywather's accuracy and precision. However, Mayweather doesn't commit to this shots as much due to hand problems which Broner does not have. Furthermore, I don't think Broner would be able to keep Canelo, Oscar and Cotto off him like d Floyd was able to.
                    I don't think Floyd kept De La Hoya, Cotto or Canelo off of him, he stayed away from them. Broner can't do this because his footwork is trash.

                      Floyd seems to hit harder at 147. Broner commits to punches a lot more which is the same reason he got caught on the chin a few times.
