    Ortiz was showing some head movement for defense in that gif. Broner's opponent was static

    Still why use a gif of him missing his combinations?
    Plenty out there with him hitting.

    if you notice, broner punches more loose which could explain why he punches hard. floyd looks strangely stiff punching.

    At his best, Floyd is better.

    Right now, I think Broner is the bettter combo puncher. At their best, I think Mayweather is better.

    Floyd by a million miles. Even today, I think there's just no comparison.

    not talking about prime floyd guys.

    but it's amazing that even at this age he's still probably a better and more fluid combo puncher. but Broners combos will make u back the **** up.

    They are different combination punchers.
    Broner is a beautiful power combination puncher, prime Floyd was a beautiful fast throwing pin point accurate combo puncher in his prime.

    Floyd hit Emanuel Augustus with a 5 point combination started by a triple left hook.

    Broner is good and probably beats Floyd now given Floyds age but prime 130-140 its Floyd

    No doubt prime for prime Floyd was the faster combination puncher, Broner just puts more oomph into the punches.

    As I said earlier no slight to Floyd, but as was pointed out earlier, Broner usually is the heavier more muscled guy on fight night rather than his opponent. While Floyd usually stays the same weight, or is lighter than his opponent.

    Jmm throws more fluid combos. The way broner has his feet planted in wide stance tells me hell be hitting canvas soon.
