    I don't see what you all are talking about. I remember Floyd at 130 and 135 he was great, but he never showed the power of a Broner down there. Never.

    Even his Manfredy stoppage he was accurate with his shots, but never even took Angel to the canvas. Hell you can see in the Jesus Chaves fight Mayweather landing but none of those shots having the single effect of a Broner flush shot.

    Like I said before they are different types of combination throwers. Floyd is gonna set you up with counters if he is hurt he will overwhelm you with accurate shots and usually force someone to step in and save you.

    For the most part with Broner he is pressing you and when he unloads you are going down and down hard and he is coming to finish you not by ovwerwhelming you but by putting your ass to sleep.

    Mayweather is the greater fighter, today and in Floyd's prime he was on another level. However, Broner is the bigger puncher though I wouldn't say he's the better combination puncher (remember Mayweather-Gatti which was brutal), however he's more willing to commit to combinations. Anyone who stands in front of Broner won't last long

    Because Floyd never put on 15 lbs in between weigh ins.

    Only thing that matters is if you make weight, everything else is BS.

    I have zero problem with Broner sweating down to 135, but him putting on 15 lbs is a major reason he has great punching power.

    Again, you're deflecting and it has nothing to do with what I said.

    You haven't made made a argument to deflect.
    Broner is no different than everyone else in every division.

    Floyd is the exception to the rule, but again that has nothing to do with combination punching.

    There is no argument. You said he's a better combination puncher because he has more power. A large reason for that is he's on 15 lbs and fighting guys smaller than he is.

    You can't read.
    I never said he was a better combination puncher because he had power.
    I repeatedly said he is a different combination puncher, Floyd on speed and precision, and Broner on power.

    As for why he has his power, probably more genetics than anything else, as for the weight, like I said before doesn't matter, he is fighting dudes who shoot up in weight after boiling down just like he does. It is SOP.
