    Seems many still don't regard him too highly. I know SFW is thought not to be too loaded with talent, but still to be the best in the world, in his class, is all a fighter can do.

    Where do you rank Broner at 130?

    Poll to follow shortly.

    He has not fought anyone yet and he has a lot of flaw's and is a ko waiting to happen real soon unless they keep matching him soft.

    Uchiyama
    Salgado
    Ao
    Broner

    But, looking at it now, I'd def rank Broner ahead of Ao. Ao'd be higher P4P for what he did at 126, but at 130, edge to Broner. So, imagine one vote for "4" is actually a "3."

    Broner's wins over Ponce de Leon, Litzau, and Rodriguez are a solid enough top three. Rodriguez was a top 15 guy while Litzau was clearly the same, even top 10 pending how much respect you gave Caballero before their fight. Broner's talent and skill, while just an opinion, I find to be great and would favor him easily over everyone currently at the weight spare for Uchiyama. I think his ceiling is high.

    I know titlist never win Prospect of the Year, but being that his title is, well, not a real world title, do you think he should be eligible to win association and personal awards for Prospect of the Year? I think of no one else other than Proksa or maybe Sillakh as guys who'd get my vote.

    Nr 4 pr 5. There is a possibility of him beating top guys but he could also get KTFO.
    Lets wait and see.

    Right underneath Ponce De Leon lol... he lost that fight.

    Ponce is the hard luck kid. He's a top level talent who just can't catch a break. He got robbed against Broner, gave Gamboa a good fight but somehow he just doesn't seem to get any recognition as a top level guy. It's always 'Broner didn't impress' or 'Gamboa looked normal'... nobody ever notices that these supposed stellar talents are looking like normal guys against the same person. It's bull****.
