    I used to like him a lot before his last fight but now I'm not convinced anymore. Broner must win top opponents to be considered top 6. He could be but not in this moment.

    You talk about "elite skills".

    Elite skills can only be showcased if you are fighting elite fighters.

    And in who's qualified opinion is a pound for pound list all about skills? I've always believed it to be a combination of resume, performance and the general size of your opponents.

    "Potential" has a lot to do with this ranking.
    (Benefit of the doubt that he pans out)

    :roll: If he ever did, Ring would then have to put Malignaggi in Broner's previous rank....

    Not necessarily, Luke.

    I think Broner has tons of potential, but I wouldn't consider myself a fan at all, really. Floyd has nothing to do with it for me. He was also several levels above Broner at the same age.

    Broner being number 6 p4p, is probably in the top 3 worst misplacements ive ever seen since Ive been following boxing. And did away with the last bit of credibility I felt the Ring had.

    Broner at 6 is a complete joke :lol:

    Yea ok. Doing the shoulder roll while beating on weak opposition who he out weights by a huge amount is not called "Elite SkillZ".
