    Broner is well over rated. A poor copycat of floyd.

    I see brook beating him, but that ain't any endorsement on brook really.

    Broner is fighting better competition than Brook, Kell struggled with Jones twice and Broner would do a job on him.

    Paulie is light years better than Jones, ones a two weight world champ and ones a journeyman, Broner won a close but clear fight against Paulie.

    On sheer volume and punches landed I had Paulie up one round at the final bell,Broner did nothing in that fight but plod around the ring after Paulie,yes his punches looked flashier and more powerful but they were few and far between,Broner did not do enough to win that fight.If Paulie had of been the Al Haymon fighter he would have gotten the nod make no mistake about it.

    Brook would have huge advantages in size, strength and power and with Broner's lack of power at 147, his flat-feet and low work rate, I think Brook wins in 6 - 8 rounds - maybe even sooner.

    I suppose it's possible that large sums of money could entice Broner over here but I very much doubt he's keen on the idea because he knows he'll get exposed pretty badly.

    So in the meantime, Broner will avoid getting into conversation about Brook, being careful not to mention his name and instead trot out the usual vague dross like "fighters have to earn the right to fight me" like he did to Spenser Fearon because he knows what's coming.

    Broner is overrated but so is Brook by a lot of you guys on here. Brook is not bad, but nothing special in grand scheme of things and hasn't done anything of note at World level, lets see if he ducks or fights Alexander first before we talk about a Broner fight.

    just dont think matchroom could generate enough money to get broner to england and still make a profit, plus kell is not known in america, he needs to make a statement over there first.

    On PPV and gate revenue Adrien Broner will make twice as much money fighting on a matchroom bill against Brook than what he would in the states.

    We might never know the answer, why would Brook still want to fight broner after DEC 14th, Broner wont have a title anymore. War Chino!.

    I'd say he has a good chance, but then there are many people who think Maidana is overated as well.

    I think he could shock Broner.

    Win or lose, Maidana is going to put a beating on Broner. Broner is too flatfooted and static to not be hit by Chino. We shall see if Broner can take the heavy shots that Maidana will deliver.
