    What to people think. To me a young floyd was technically very good, but more about athletecism.

    Broner now reminds me more of Floyd now. Floyd now is technically incredible, a differant level to a young floyd.

    I'm not talking who's the better. But purely from a technical point of view, do you think Broner is better than floyd at 22.

    And also who do you think was the better fighter at 22, Broner or Floyd?

    Nah, Floyds left hook was far more tight and compact and devastating. His lead right was far superior and he could dominate a fight woth his jab. Broner is powerful more powerful then Floyd but his left hook is wide, his jab is ok but nothing spectacular, and his right hand is secondary.

    No he's not. Not enough lateral movement. Doesn't use both hands enough. Is more open than PBF when he throws.

    Hahaha, hell NO.

    Floyd was more technically superb in the 96' Olympics at age 19, than is Broner at the present stage.

    broner fights more like 17 /18 yr old floyd. and even then mayweather had better defense
    but at that time he was already sparring with prime pernell whitaker and montell griffin. we all know floyd is big bra and broner is lil bra. but do he fight like a 22 yr old mayweather id so more like mayweather when he was 17/18.

    :lol: This bias hate of Floyd is going too far Anthony.
    Did you see the Ponce fight ? There is you answer.
    Broner is about athleticism. Floyd won his first belt with his skills.

    nah he doesn't do nearly as much, you have to analyse it to see why floyd is and was so good
