Algeiri beat Taylor pretty easily.

    Broner's job is to put on gloves, and he knows the fundamentals of boxing. Of course he can box. He just can't box nearly as well as Algeiri.

    Broner isn't that type of fighter, because he isn't that type of fighter. There's nothing else that needs to be said.

      Once again, he can't move nearly as well as Algieri. There's a difference. They are two totally different fighters. Broners skills lie elsewhere. Besides his movement, Algieri is a totally straightforward pedestrian fighter. I'm sure we will see that against Pac.

        Because Broner isn't anything more than a C+ fighter.

          First you claim that Broner is a good boxer, then you claim that Algieri is pedestrian. Algieri would box Broner's ears off. And anyone that thinks Pac's gonna run through a guy that's 9 feet tall, and can box isn't one to converse with when it comes to boxing.

            If Algieri fought the Taylor last night, he would had lost

              Alieri is pedestrian jn what he does in the ring. Nothing fancy no urgency to push. Thays what he meant. Broner needs to step on gas more and push that pace. Thats more his style not slowed down boxing.

                ya thats probably true but i bet if you go back and watch it taylor didnt look the same. Was i only one glad see broner start calling out al haymon and garcia tho he did it real subtle. Get a big name calling out people for bs fights is a good thing

                  Yes that's true and very understandably so, because Algieri is a pure boxer who moves a lot and throws many more punches than Broner but without the snap or pop on them. However, he didn't come remotely close to KOing or even dropping Taylor in their bout as Broner did once he landed that beautiful left upper cut with just seconds remaining in the fight. If it had not been for that referee and if there was just a little more time remaining on that clock, Adrien possibly would've scored the knockout victory of Emmanuel Taylor.
