There seems to be no recent news about this fight. It's just about a week away.

This guy got about shut out by Algieri. If Broner loses this he's gone Berto.

Saw the whole Algieri fight with Emmanuel taylor. Algieri wouldn't' stay in the pocket and taylor's hand speed was just as impressive as Algieri. He just has a ver short reach and doesn't punch from angles and just comes straight forward. One thing I took from that fight is taylor has power and speed and if he can control the pace he can give Broner a good fight. taylor is compact, fast, and strong

I like the way this guy thinks. I think this is a pretty good matchup.

i thinks so too, the thing about adrien is that he didn't change anything from maidana to molina, and if he shows the same mistake here he can get into trouble, because, just like malignaggi, molina can't punch his way out of a paper bag, but taylor seems to have decent pop. broner needs to stop pretending he is a defensive wizard like floyd, because he isn't, he is more offensive minded, he just needs to let his hands go more instead of just freezing everytime he gets attacked

I agree completely. If Broner focuses on getting off first then It will be an easy fight for him. If taylor is the aggressor then he will likely control the fight. Broner is the much more skilled boxer coming in though (I think he has like a 300-19 amatuer record). Broners reach and ring generalship I think will be the deciding factor in this fight. their speed is about the same, neither punch from angles, and they both kinda fight stiff with little footwork. the 5'11 Algieri didn't **** around with taylors power lets see if Broner will.

broner will, i don't think he will try to outbox him, the thing is, like i said before, what is he going to do when taylor is in the offense? i hope he doesn't just satay there shaking his head head every time he gets hit

Broner better get his James Toney on
