Adrien Jerome Broner could have reached Money's lvl, he had similar lvls of talent.

    Broner had the physical ability to do what Floyd did. But not the mental. There were at least 10 other fighters that have existed that had Mayweather's physical capabilities. Just none had the mind to match.

    Either they lacked work ethic, ring IQ, or the right management. You can't teach ring IQ and work ethic at a high level though. Mayweathers don't come around that often. Broner was fast, but didn't have the right techniques or ring IQ, or timing or any of that. Maybe he could have developed SOME of that if he was a harder worker and more mentally stable, but at the end of the day, that is as much of being a fighter as the physical part. Broner was always destined to be the next Zab Judah IMO.

    Broner HAS NOT got similar leves of skill to Floyd Mayweather or he WOULD of reached those levels. When he was looking good it was all getting prepared for him to become the next Floyd but it soon transpired that infact he is not as good as Floyd and was not going to become the next king of American Boxing.

    It’s confusing when you slag one idol to prop up another, this is like weird feedback loop trolling or something

    That young man Haney is looking more like Floyd than any fighter I have seen so far.

    Can’t believe this thread started in 2018, MVC is clearly past prime
