top 25, hasn't fought anyone, demarco wasn't that good, at 140 he wouldn''t be top 8 (Demarco) He hasn't fought anyone at all
Froch Pascal Taylor Dirrel Kessler - L Abraham Johnson Ward - L Bute Mack - not good Broner De Leon - alot have that fight as a L Litzau - Not that good Perez - Not that good Demarco Broner has 2 good fighters in his resume, Froch has half a dozen He is not Some fighters that don't feature on most top 10's (rightfully in my opinion) Alexander Witter Urango Kotelnyk Bradley - L Mathysse - Big Puncher many had it as a L Maidana - Out of shape but still a big puncher Bailey - old but a KO artist Khan MAB - old and small, but khan was young, Former Champ Kotelnyk -Champ Salita - Mandatory Mallininaggi - Former/Future Champ Maidana - at his peak McCloskey - top 10 Judah - Unification fight Peterson - Drug cheat, disputed L Garcia Also fought good tough fighters in Limond, Earl, Gomez
:good any of our countrymen giving the brits a hard time about building up their fighters too fast before they have been tested need to take a back seat if you want to put broner P4P top 10 after this weekend
I feel you on the highlighted part, so I say Broner should be rated 20-25 or so, I don't have a top 25 p4p list in front of me so I would say he would more than likely be ranked at #21 slot, he's only 2 impressive wins/performances from probably being in the lower top 10.
He's my fave fighter but no, he needs a couple more solid wins vs Demarco level dudes or higher. top 15 right now and #1 at LW
Who decided DeMarco was the. Number 1 guy at lightweight? Looking at records surely you'd have to say Vazquez and Burns should be ranked higher? DeMarco is a good fighter, but his best win was a come from behind KO of the famously fragile Linares. Broner is clearly a top talent, but so many people are putting him on a pedestal already and when someone points out that his achievements so far haven't been all that amazing they go mental and accuse that person o being a hater. It's ridiculous.
on ability he certainly can't be rated far out the top 10 based on that performance. I do think ricky may be able to beat him though.
What crack are they smoking??!! Sports Illustrated P4P: http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2011/mma/boxing/pound-for-pound-ratings/index.html
I'm a fan of the kid as much as I am of Canelo both are the future of boxing, but he doesn't deserve top 10 yet. I'd say top 15-20, but after beating the Vasquez-Gesta winner he'd be fast approaching top 10 in no time.
