I think Adrien Broner would beat Terrence Crawford

I think TC wins because he uses his feet better and he is a smarter boxer than Broner. Broner has decent legs, he just doesn't use them. Im not sure if his conditioning is the reason, laziness or overconfidence with regards to his power. Broner fights nothing like young Floyd.

Broner is a C+ fighter who fought hand picked guys he had size advantages over. His lack of craft commitment lead him to fight at his natural weight and since then he's looked horrible. The Maidana capsulated how bad he really was. They arguably could have stopped that fight early, he tried to fake a dq to get out of the fight, and only had a chance in the fight after he chino after the bell.
I don't think we can have a serious discussion about Broner until he does something serious.
Crawford has done all the things one needs to do to be an A level fighter; snagged a belt in another guys backyard, fought a game and name contender, and he's beating the top guys in his weight class without promotional company help. He's done it all dramatically. Crawford would duke it out with Broner and eventually snuff him

Originally posted by daggum View Postok he's not terrible that was hyperbole but he's just mediocre and he's being marketed as a top fighter and he's clearly not. he shouldn't even be in the top 10 but hype gets you far in boxing. he beat taylor and molina and he's #4? algeiri easily beat taylor and wasn't in the top 10, soto beat molina and others and still isn't in the top 10. weak resume and weak performances=not very good. crawfart has a better resume, has dominated all his fights, and clearly has more wrinkles to his craft than flat footed broner. broner won't even fight anyone man why do you like him?
He is lazy and unprofessional, but he does possess talent and has won tough, close fights and didn't quit against Maidana when he was whippin his ass.

Originally posted by The Big Dunn View PostHe may not be as good as he thinks-but he has won belts in 3 different divisions. Very few have done this. The same posters who act as its no big deal when Broner did it, use multiple belts in different weight classes as a measure of excellence for the guys they like.

Originally posted by daggum View Postcome on man who did he beat for those belts? you think beating rodriguez(who?), dimarco, and malignaggi is something amazing? rodriguez was a journeyman, dimarco was relevant for a couple months, and maliganggi is a terrible welterweight losing to porter and cano. no one thinks simply winning belts is impressive because anyone can win a belt nowadays. how many good wins does broner have and the answer is zero. maybe someday but he's struggling with C level fighters and losing to B level fighters like maidana and ponce so the future doesn't look good and that's why he's in massive cherry pick mode. If his handlers had any confidence in him they would have matched him with matthysse, garcia, or peterson but no it was molina, taylor, and other molina.
Taylor wasn't as bad as people argued. Molina didn't show up. As for all the other guys, they made the fights tough but they lost. Since when did we stop giving guys credit for winning a tough fight?
Yes, Broner is not professional. But he still won those fights, even though he didn't dominate as expected.
I just think his fans over rate him but those that do not like him seriously under rate him and his accomplishments.
