    Just because they are both black and obnoxious, they are not on the same level.

    Floyd would have never taken that many hits, Floyd at that division was a beast, and quicker.....

    Floyd at 130 destroys Broner.

    Too fast, too agressive, too much power

    Well they do have somewhat similar styles, yet still are different. Mayweather moved around a lot more at 130-135 lbs while Broner does not so he's going to get hit more. Yes, they're both very flamboyant as well.

    Broner is a power puncher, Floyd was a combination throwing sticker and mover.

    They share a similar style but with different objectives.
    I think Floyd vs. Broner at 135 would have been a great fight, the adjustments alone wwould have bee nice to see.

    agreed with the thread start, broner is actually exciting to watch bc he tries to impose his will on his opponents. he is actually a hybrid of shane and floyd!

    I think Reese was just a lil better than we all thought.

    I think that is an adapt statement.
    He is a power boxer like Shane mixed with that High shoulder style of Floyd.

    Thats why I like him **** that female gay hugging **** like Bored and Alexander, Broner a G he don't gotta run, he just impose his will.

    If he continues to do so at 140 I'm gonna stay a big fan.

    Same style less mobility. He uses his forearms and elbows a lot to get leverage on the inside. Floyd is better though, adapts better i feel and his defense and footwork are levels above.

    Broner doesn't fight anything like a Floyd clone. Funny to see previous Floyd haters getting ready to transfer their hate to another person.
