Pac may have been KO'ed badly against JMM but he was doing pretty well prior to walking into a monster shot. Broner's only hope would be to walk Pac into a similar shot and stop him because he has little chance of winning on points even against this past prime Pacman. Pac may no longer be the whirlwind of destruction he once was but his work rate is still too much for Broner who doesn't have the footwork of JMM or Mayweather to be able to keep Pacman at bay. Old Pac grinds Broner down and stops him late, prime Pac would have chewed him up and spat him out inside 5 rounds. Personally I'd like to see this fight happen.
Sure, lets put Broner in with Canelo too. Let Broner show that he's above Paulie Malignagi's level before we feed him to the wolves.
Broner will destroy Pac. He's not half the fighter he was before and Broner just getting better. Easy win for the problem, probably with KO!
Broner isn't ready for Pacman just yet. He has to gain a bit more experience in the WW division and has to continue to progress as a fighter. He can't start off so slowly anymore in the early rounds, great fighters will pick this up in film studies of him and really do some damage to him early on. Pacman is such a ridiculous offensive fighter who swarms guys by throwing punches from very unusual angles. If Broner fought like he did with Paulie and just stayed in the pocket in a shell defense, Pacman would just start throwing a myriad of combinations on him from the start of the 1st round. I still don't know about Broner's power at the WW division. Paulie is a tough S.O.B. so him not getting knocked down isn't a surprise, but I'd like to see how powerful Adrien's counterpunching truly is with other guys in the division, like Maidana, before he thinks about fighting a seasoned veteran like Pacquiao. But Pacman's kryptonite has always been a good counterpuncher, so who knows....
Not that the fight would ever get made, but Pacquiao puts the hurt flat footed Broner. I've seen nothing from Broner that indicates he could deal with Manny. At 23, Broner is still not a legit welter. I'm not talking about the weight itself, but physical strength-wise. Add to that, experience. Maybe later in his 20s, but right now he's just not ready.
come on, no one but dick riders would say broner beats pac, and they dont even believe it themselves.
Broner needs to prove himself before he's worthy of getting a fight with an excellent fighter like Manny Pacquiao . Throw him in there with Ortiz , Thurman, or even Randal Bailey and let's see how he reacts to them
No one knows what Pac has left so Broner has a good chance at beating a declining Pacquiao. We're see after the Rios fight how Pacquiao fares.
