    In a certain way I think Broner could have a chance but then again temperament comes into play. Broner completely flaked against Porter and was as one dimensional as one could be. He does well when he let's his hands go but the problem is he' such an up and down kinda fighter. Just stands right in front giving his opponent the ability to just fling a damaging power shot.
    I think in a certain way though, maybe that counter-puncher toe to toe style could give him a decent chance. It worked okay for Marquez but Marquez is much more a competitive warrior who takes every opportunity to land. Broner just waits. That being said it's hard to really see how he could stay competitive against Manny.

    Crawford obviously has the best chance. He's fluid like water and very adaptable. He seem a little small and not very durable though. You look at a guy of Algieri's stature and Pac's power just made him fold like a twig. Let's not forget Gamboa ruffed up Crawford some.

    Danny to me has zero chance unless he pulls off a miracle KO'ing him. Other than that it's like no competition. Very low output, is very durable however but all in all not elite material. His low out put isn't because he fears impending offense but because he gasses. He's smart in how he goes about winning a fight based on landing enough rounds but his opposition has been very lackluster lately

        What's absolutely crazy to me is the pacquiao name should be set up for generations with his earnings in the ring to date. Sadly, I suspect he may be terrible with his money which is why we are still talking about him fighting.
