    Those fights were at much lower weights. Hype surrounding DeMarco? What?

    For the record, I don't think Broner has a bad chin. His defence is pretty crap but he has heart and proved his toughness and chin by getting up and fighting hard.

      What? Since when has Broner knocked out a natural 147lbr who dishes it out? Pfff

        At 147 Brandon Rios would break down and knock out Broner with no problem. Broner doesn't have anything to stop Rios and Rios would just keep coming.

        As a matter a fact, I think Antonio DeMarco stayed at 135 for way too long and I think it was due to the fact that he had the title. But at 140 or 147 Antonio DeMarco can beat Broner too because he won't be a dehydrated and drained zombie.

              Why do people act as if Broner doesn't have good power? He had enought power to stun maidana, I'm sure he has enough to get Rios' attention. And besides, I don't think Rios has what it takes to fold Broner. Hee just not that good and his power isn't anything special.

                But wasn't Broner drained at 135 as well?? he is a much bigger guy then Demarco..

                  Broner hasn't beaten anyone up since he jumped up guys his size.

                    its hard to say if his power is good, he hit chino on the mark a good amount of times and couldnt kd chino who gets dropped a fair amount

                    broner is the better fighter but stylistically, his lack of movement kills him
