    An awful lot of you overrate Broner. Not saying I think Burns would beat him, but Broner really isn't all that good.

    :deal Broner should have a loss on his record. He is obviously very talented but still very green.

    Broner is fairly boring, and he's not very impressive at it either. It's not like he's a Calderon or a Mijares type who have such fluidity about them that they don't really have to take risks, they can just outsmart their opponents easily without making things too entertaining. Broner always seems on edge, he's not naturally boring, he just fights that way because he almost seems worried half the time. Superior boxers to him would exploit his deficiencies I think. Which is why he's lucky to be residing in a none too steller division.

    He needs to loosen up, because I think he could be a really effective boxer-puncher as opposed to a tentative, uncomfortable looking counter-puncher. He's relying on his athletic gifts too much instead of building on them.

    To be fair though, I tend to agree. I'd favour Ricky in this one

    Sorry guys been busy plus prob with computer,if this fight with Bromer is made rest assured Rickys well up for it a great chance to make a big name for himself in the USA.
    People on here cant say hes not a good fighter but when he fights Ricky he'll find out hes not quite good enough.
    beleive me guys Biurns will do a number non him whereever the fight take place if it takes place.

    But how can you have absolute confidence in Frank? He has gave you 3 terrible defences. And this is a fight i believe Frank will dodge. I'm not saying Ricky wouldn't take the fight or anything. I hope it get's made.

    Agree on all points. Nice to see Mijares brought up again :lol: Broner has plenty of time to improve he's only 21, with the right trainer he can go places. :good
