I agree.

Slightly off topic, but i am begging to see both Broner and Alvarez take on a come forward, high punch output, pressure fighter.... Kind of Margarito ish style, or as you said, Hatton stlye.

I need to see how they handle constant pressure when they their opponent can walk through their power shots.

Broner ko, hes too awkward for ricky

[gobblock]

Broner could easily move up to 140 in a matter of months. He'd knock Ricky the **** out, and I hate Broner (though I admit it's starting to become a "love to hate" thing.)

Too early to realy make a good case for Broner.

Should revisit this topic in about 2 years.

People don't realise how good Ricky's footwork was. He'd use his footwork to get inside then he punched from all sorts of angles to deliver the damage.

People need to remember that losing to P4P number 1 Floyd Mayweather and P4P number 1 at the time Manny Pacquiao doesn't mean you will lose to every good/ great up and coming fighter.

This.

People are getting carried away when some u.s raising star emerges. Broner hasn´t shown anything that even remotely impresses me. Lets wait and see.

[Scotia]

Hatton would roll right over Broner do some of you guys even remember Tszyu?

[PrinceN]

I bet you thought Hatton was going to beat Mayweather too

I thought Broner's last couple of performances were a bit borin but if the last one didnt remotely impress u then i dunno what fighters impress u, when u saw the combos he threw when he decided to someone like Hatton would walk into them same way he walked into Pacs combos, n no im not comparin Broners offense to Pacs

Hatton. Perhaps Broner will make me think otherwise when he moves up to 140.

[Juiceboxbiotch]

Ok sure... the Hatton who beat Kostya Tszyu would probably do a job on Broner... But you could attribute that to a tremendous size difference between them. Hatton is way ****in bigger.

Out of the two of us, one is a racist moron without a clue,

The other one is me.


Do you get it yet...

[PityTheFool]

Only on ESB can you find overwhelming support for a guy who's had one fight at 135,zero fights at 140 and a P4P coronation for a very talented young fighter who just demolished a very limited fighter who had all the movement of a heavy bag and is about as near to Hatton style-wise as Jimmy Saville is to standing trial.

He may well become good enough to win this fantasy match up,but at this point there's nothing to suggest he easily wins.

[Royal-T-Bag]

A little too early, Broner hasn't fought anyone that size yet. Hatton was a beast. Broner has shown that he deals with pressure guys better than just about any other style but Hattons size and strentgh might be too much, especially right now.
