    De La Hoya, Cotto, Vargas, Mayorga, Margarito & Alvarez all couldn't hurt or drop Mosley but Forrest & Pacquaio did. Does that make any of them lesser punchers?

    Don't believe HBO, Showtime and Compubox, they have their own agenda, sales figures. Broner is a bigger drag than Paulie, they'll big him up to drag in the crowds...

    JC has a high work rate though. Broner does not. JC also missed a lot throwing a lot.

    Broner punches very economically.

    It was not a comment on a guy moving up 2 weight classes power. It was the accuracy with which he punches and the energy he conserves in doing so.

    Yea, but he got hit with 25% of Paulie Malignaggi's shots. That's nothing to brag about.

    25% isnt 20% like Floyd but it is not shabby. Plus realize that most of those were jabs.

    But, this says nothing about my point that the guy lands most of the punches he throws; 50% is amazing. He is a very concise puncher.

    How is Mikey Garcia not? He didn't even throw a body shot against Lopez in 4 rounds and got him out of there.

    Despite scoring two knockdowns in round one in his title-winning fight against Salido, Garcia was just 11 of 42 (total) and 7 of 17 (power)

    Against Bernabe Concepcion, Garcia averaged 47.3 punches per round over the first three, going 29 of 142 (20%) overall and just 7 of 28 (25%) in power shots. But from round four onward Garcia fired 71 punches per round and out-landed Concepcion 83-26 overall and 49-16 in power shots to register the seventh round TKO.

    Just from compubox. He has more power than most but he isnt as accurate. Just saying your list doesnt hold up.

    Yah and ****ing Lopez is absolutely one of the shittiest defensive fighters out there atm. Broner would have landed 70% plus against him. You know that is the truth:smoke
