    Broner is incredibly stiff and can't deal with any movement. That's why a shot Paulie nearly beat him. Algieri lays hands on Broner all night. He won't just stand in Adrian's range and eat pot shots others do. Chris would expose him far worse than Maidana did.

      Broner is okay, but only looks good beating up on guys who are a weight class below him.

I know he doesn't want to fight Danny Garcia (IIRC he said so in an interview on SHO), so that leaves Peterson or Algieri. Chris Algieri seems more favorable for Broner, as Algieri lacks power (8 KO's in 20 wins compared to 16 KO's in 32 wins for Peterson).

        I still don't know much about Chris Algieri, so I can't say confidently who would win but I definitely wouldn't be surprised to see Broner win impressively. Would be nice to see Algieri win another upset though.
        Algieris is facing Rios, Jessie Vargas or Alvarado next. Definitely not a Haymon fighter!

          Hahaha...
          Had Provo won then Broner wouldn't have had a clear path back!?!
          Hahaha...

            I like this fight, would be gd to see how Broner negates his movements
            Build up would be good guy vs bad guy, with Algiera being the softly spoken gent and Broner going all out n cussing the **** outta him...

              You're right, Broner could beat this guy because he is nothing special.

                He has a point tbf, I'm not Broners biggest fan I just can't see anyway Algieri is going to be able to outbox Broner...

                Broner probably takes a 12 rd UD, Algieri will need to stick to the outside alot ain't no way is he winning an inside battle with AB.

                    Broner needs to get off first sometimes and not just sit waiting for the counter all night if he's gonna beat a guy likes Algieri who isn't gonna hang around to be countered after he attacks. Tbh I just think Broners stance inhibits his mobility to the point where he is just going to have fits against anyone who can move and box to a decent level.
