    But...Broner has superior athletic gifts which closes the skill gap substantially, but still Rigo.

    Rigo is more well rounded than he lets on but we did see him turn into a different animal when he murdered Rico and Teon.

    Rigo has the technique. Broner has the athleticism. If Broner ever approaches Rigo's skill level, he will be unreal.

    People continue to mistake athleticism for skill.

    Broner is not that skilled, but he could get better in the future. There are a lot of fighters more skilled than Broner. Rigo is skilled...much more so than Broner.

    :deal As in Roy Jones ruled for a decade on sheer athleticism. Then when he lost all that muscle mass and got old, he was exposed because he was small in the department of skills and fundamentals.
