Of course they did. Especially on this forum. People made threads saying he's the next fighter of the decade. If he was white no one would say that.
Do people really see Broner as the next Floyd

Bruh 2012 was 5 years ago you should feel ashamed for even having that saved, even you back then thought broner was somewhat the goods he was a 3 division champ, Larry today even before this fight has way different feelings on broner but I'm not nerd enough to even dig up last week.Comment

There was lil Mayweather-like even before the Maidana L for me. Broner is talented, but he never seemed to have a strong defense which is the foundation for everything Floyd does. Saying Broner is the next Mayweather is like saying Wilder is the next Joe Louis.Comment

I don't think many fans think that at all. Mayweather was difficult to hit clean. Broner has a poor defense that consist mainly of a powerful bear hug on his opponent who is pounding the hell out of him. He is not nearly as good as Mayweather, He never was and he never will be.Comment

He was a Walmart brand version of Floyd even at his best. Maidana exposed him, Porter exposed him worse, and he's probably only one more humilating loss away from career death.
Ironically, I like Broner and think people shit on him way too much, but no, he's not like Floyd and never really was.Comment
