Crawford vs Broner . Who you got ?

[deuce_drop]

crawford all day, he is far too disciplined for broner.....

Crawford, too much movement and boxing ability for the stationary Broner.

Crawford finally shows the world how over-hyped Broner was and still is. I think he hurts Broner several times and beats his head like a drum until the final bell. 10 rounds to 2, Crawford takes Broner to school.

You can't expose Broner more than he already has. Rees showed us a glimpse of how flawed Broner's defense is, Malignaggi confirmed Broner is average. Then many fans, me included, thought he would do a DeMarco on Maidana, because of the way Maidana looked so vulnerable against Karrass and Lopez. And Broner couldn't even get on Maidana's level at all. He has been exposed, and there's nothing new Crawford can show us about Broner and what he lacks as a boxer.

Crawford would outwork him and win a decision in my opinion. And Broner would shake his head every time Crawford lands on him.

Crawford takes it.

I like this match up, but I gotta go with Crawford by decision.

I think Broner is all wrong for Crawford. Two of my favourite's but I think Broner is too quick in close. People saying Crawford is faster are delusional. No one is faster than Broner when he lets his hands go. He just lost all his confidence. I think it the 4 round against Taylor when Broner moves his feet and boxes and dominates the round easy with his speed. Kid just fell in love with his power.

Man, oh man you don't understand the sweet science. Broner can do that to midgets, and stationary targets, but he's not chaining any combinations together against a guy that's not gonna just stand there.

At most, all I see Broner doing is land a few counter right hands, and really nothing else. He'll get a few body jabs in, but once he feels TC's speed, accuracy, and counter punching coming back at him, he'll be shell shocked, OR, he'll be ****** and try to be macho by shaking his head, and walking him down, and he'll get hurt doing that.

Crawford's jab would be a nightmare for Broner. It's hard to see how he would cope with Crawford generally considering how uncomfortable he looks waddling forward.

Don't think he'd be that concerned about Crawford's power though, and Crawford doesn't throw with the sort of volume that would make Broner freeze up. Broner is quick and accurate and he'd be capable of landing on Crawford if Crawford decided to mix it up as he sometimes does.

It's hard to see him getting into scoring position often enough to sustain any pressure though. He's just not good enough going forward to take control of the fight away from Crawford.

That's the key here. When Broner needs to make a play, he tends to walk his man down. With Maidana that's safe, because Maidana can't fight on his back foot.

With TC, I think he's gonna be trying to back him down the entire fight, and get clipped constantly with counters. Broner's never had to deal with that level of boxing fundamentals, and physicality. Paulie is as feather fisted as they get, so there was really no consequence of following him.

When Broner gets a taste of his own medicine, but in the form of a way higher quality of fighter, he'll be shell shocked.

I don't even think Broner's faced the style of fighter like a Burns or a Beltran. Technical, smooth, good boxing fundamentals, and can counter with above average speed. He's faced all these weird gimmicky styles, but I've never really seen him in there with an actual pure boxer type that was his own size, and had credible speed. You can argue Paulie, but Paulie is way past it, and has no pop.

Correct me if I'm wrong.

Crawford wins easily and possibly by KO. Broner is an okay fighter but nobody to write home about. Crawford looks like he is on his way to being one of the best fighters in the world. He is a fast boxer and a hard puncher and he takes a good punch and has good stamina. He seems better than Broner in every way and his defense is much better than Broner's defense. Plus I like Crawford better. He is a humble classy guy while Broner is an arrogant bragger with no class. That doesn't make Crawford a better fighter than Broner but he has that covered. I doubt Broner will want to fight Crawford at 140.
