    Maidana: Adrien [Broner] is really strong

    BEST JAB
    Floyd Mayweather Jr.: Although it was not damaging, Floyd’s jab keeps you at distance and gives himself the proper distance to throw the following punches.

    BEST DEFENSE
    Mayweather: You can barely land more than two consecutive punches on him. You can catch him in relatively solid fashion with the first, but he would adjust his body to soften the second and then he’s either gone or grabs you.

    BEST CHIN
    Mayweather and Erik Morales: These two guys had solid chins. I caught them with clean punches and they would never blink.

    FASTEST HANDS
    Amir Khan: He is just too fast with his hands and able to throw 4-5 punches out of the blue.

    FASTEST FEET
    Mayweather: The way his legs position him to either defend or to attack is just amazing.

    SMARTEST
    Mayweather: He just simply used (his intelligence) to do everything just right.

    STRONGEST
    Adrien Broner: I know people think I gave him the beating of his life but trust me, Adrien is really strong. The last round against him he came at me like a true warrior, asking for more and more.

    BEST PUNCHER
    Victor Ortiz: This is the hardest puncher I’ve faced. He didn’t drop me three times in our fight for nothing. Yet, I knocked him out.

    BEST SKILLS
    Mayweather and Morales: Although two totally different styles these guys really know how to box and to get away from dangerous situations to come back with their own arsenal.

    BEST OVERALL
    Mayweather: Simply the best of his time. Undoubtedly the best I’ve ever faced is Floyd Mayweather. Too smart, slick and also has a tough chin. I put a lot of pressure on him, especially in the first fight, and I guess it was such a close bout. In fact, I thought I had won the fight when the final bell rang. He was never able to do anything in that first encounter and I was the aggressor throughout. The rematch was different since he took the bike. And when Floyd does that there‘s not much you can do to catch him.

    In the Broner/Maidana fight, I remember in the later rounds (possibly the last round) when Broner hit Marcos with a very good shot. Marcos looked like he was in a little bit of trouble there. I'm not surprised at his assessment because of that. Broner gets a lot of flak for that fight, but he fought Marcos like a man...though he did try to fake being hurt by an illegal blow. That was a bit of a b*tch move. lol

      It's a pity that being so good, Mayweather had to force him to use pillow gloves twice and clinch him 70+ times.

        ^ The fact he said this probably has a lot of fans broken hearted.

          Just saw a video with Garcia saying Maidana called him and wants to fight Pacquiao

              Dropped Porter in the 12th just saying. Porter couldn't rid of Broner either. Just playing NFL in the ring.

                Broner has to stop trying to fight like Floyd and maximize his own strengths and mask his weaknesses, he's a completely different athlete. Much more physical than Mayweather.

                He's like what Larry Holmes was to Ali, but not as good

                  People acts like if Broner was a bum, but he is really talented, fast, heart, chin, skills, explosive, powerful, strong, just a dumbass.
