    I disagree. His defensive stance is something that Michigan fighters are taught from a young age. Obviously Broner has tried to imitate Floyds fighting style but I don't think it has worked. His foot speed isn't there, lacks lateral movement unlike Floyd, does not and cannot drop his right hand (reflexes are too slow), lacks a check hook when on the back foot, and rarely leads with right hands.

    Nail on the head!! These punks like to try and say what they do out of the ring doesn't matter, but it's the antics that they love more than anything else.

    Well, considering that Mayweather had a torn rotator cuff when he fought Castillo the first fight, then yes Broner would make it a difficult fight.

    What about eloy vs castillo?:think. I think the comparison is just as extreme in matching Floyd with Broner. Floyd all day.

    All I can say is Broner is thicker and bigger now, than Mayweather was when he was at 135. Broner is more offensive minded and seems to have heavier hands than Mayweather.

    It would be a good fight.

    Floyd has way better movement and he's the original Floyd Mayweather even as a Junior and not the want to be imitation. Plus Broner doesn't have Floyd's awareness. Floyd is much more accurate and plus Floyd is 1,2,3 win not 1,2,3 look good. Broner isd good but he's nowhere near Floyd's league. Broner has'nt even fought a Manfredy caliber fighter yet so let's not get too carried away off of hype. It's sad this guy will be ducking a slew of good fighters because they're smaller than him such as Rigondeax and Gamboa who I think would both work him but oh well. He's in the safe zone for now and won't be fighting a real threat for a long time.

    What the hell would he need to lie for? As early as the 4th or 5th round he was complaining about pains in his shoulder and he couldn't use his left well after, spoke about it at different points during the fight. This wasn't one of those cases where a guy looks bad in a fight then claims he had some injury, while during the fight there was no indication of it. Why do people think Vitali had a torn rotator cuff? Do we all need to show mri to satisfy the brnxhands of the world? No because the brnxhands of the world are nobody haters who thrive off of bitchassness.
