    What u think?
    Well, yea, sort of.
    Ones a natural lightweight and the other is a natural featherweight. Both got no business fighting at welterweight.
    The ONLY reason there there is that’s where the money is AND they both like to eat too much.

        Not really, I think Mikey is a better fighter as shown in their h2h. But unlike Mikey, at least Broner took challenges earlier in his career while Mikey was protected. Both were overhyped though (Broner a little more).

          Let’s see, Mikey beat Broner so there is that. Mikey is not big enough to take on Spence or Crawford. There are good welters that he could beat. There are reasons for different weight classes and we saw that when he fought Spence. He could not hurt him. Mikey is my favorite fighter, but he should be thinking Loma for his next fight. If he wants to fight a welter for a title, try Pac.

                Mikey/Loma was considered a 50/50 fight. When the last time Broner went into a 50/50 fight with a p4p fighter?

                    Not dis*****g that.

                    I'm just saying he wasn't dominated. Broner even stunned him late in the fight. People remember this fight differently because of the KDs. Between the KDs Broner held his own.

                    In fact, of all the Broner losses, this fight he put in the most effort. He definitely took the most beating from Maidana but it wasn't completely one sided.

                      Yesh people need to realise it doesnt mean much being.good in **** weight classes. That performance last saturday is exactly the reason i dont take it for granted that crawford is an elite welter.
