    Broner isn't a hypejob, whether people like it or not, and he isn't going to get beat by any small fry too much skill, speed and talent.

    I want to see him at WW.


    I'm worried about his weight. If his father's fat genes are in him he will constantly be moving towards that impulse as he grows older. It will always be hard to make weight unless he has some disciplinarians around him or he gets disciplined himself.

    He can copy Mayweather's style, but he can't copy those genes. It can be assumed that he is innately inclined to fatness - unless his father has some sort of medical condition - and he must watch how, when and what he eats.

    he is not a WW. your average welterweight will weigh at least 154 after fightnight. hes a lightweight for now, will end up being an average sized Jr WW soon.

    Perhaps for now he should be taken as just a lightweight, for now.

    I'm ready to see him against some bigger names.

    Personality wise Broner is the fighter I despise, but having said that the bloke is as talented as they come.

    I would like to see him in there with a puncher though just to see how he'd react if tagged, but that's being picky.

    He is a good fighter and I think he's got a lot more to come.

    Me too. I think he chops down Demarco with relative ease. Too fast of hands and too powerful. Linares easily outboxed Demarco for 9 or 10 rounds. Lack of defense eventually caught up though. Certainly can't say that about Broner.

    Although I know the only way Demarco will face him is via a mandatory.

    This x10. We'll have to see how Lundy does against Beltran coming up, but yes this fight needs to be next. Only thing really standing in the way is Lundy badly wants a title shot after Beltran, and I believe he's supposed to be mandatory for Demarco.

    Little more then a little. Not a lot but not a little. Plus Escobedo wasn't even throwing it that much. Vazquez with his jab and toughness and awkward style could be a stylistic nightmare for Broner.

    You know what?

    I take it back.

    Broner is a WW. He's bullshitting. Or atleast Jr WW.

    I can see it all over his frame. I promise you, mark my words. He will make everyone under 140 look small from now on.

    Am I the only one who thinks Broner vs. Demarco is an extremely tough fight for Broner. Linares outboxed Demarco because of fluidity, and activity. H2H, Linares is a better BOXER than Broner in the sense that, for a sustained period of time (usually up to the point he gets caught) an opponent feels completely outclassed. Broner's more methodical style, more intentional would only have Demarco figure him out. Let's not forget, Demarco went through some BRUTAL rounds against Valero. I think he gives Broner all kinds of problems.

    Broner would put Lundy's glass jaw into the third row. Way too hitable and short and wild. Broner would walk through him in the first 3 rounds.
