    Broner has all the edges above Crawford. Better power, better speed, reflexes, defense. Broner now severely underestimated due to his loss to Maidana, but people forget that big bro Floyd had "nearly" as much trouble as Broner in their fight. Maidana is a bad style match up for that style.

    So why else did he win it if not Gamboa? Was it because of his win over Ricky Burns? :rofl

    And Gamboa is a very good fighter, but he's undersized for that weight and too wreckless against a guy like Crawford. Styles makes fights, Gamboa exposes himself badly to Crawford. Not a fan of Garcia, I think he is very beatable but Garcia would have put Gamboa to sleep that night too.

    Broner has better defense? Broner's defense sucks. And their speed and reflexes are about even.

    Crawford is the better overall fighter. He's also naturally bigger.

    Floyd had nearly as much trouble? One guy won 8-4 and the other guy lost 8-4.

    You're selecting a comment in the middle of a debate I was having with boxing master and taking it out of context. BM said Algieri fought the better competition, my point was, WHAT GOOD IS THAT IF YOU LOST? Had nothing to do with saying "his loss to Pacquiao means Crawford beats him."

    I could go on to fight Pacquiao, Mayweather, and Golovkin, and lose to all 3. Does that make me a better fighter because I have 3 great names on my resume? Algieri could very well beat Crawford, but it would have nothing to do with his fights over Pacquiao, Provo, and Taylor ffs.

    Crawford edges Broner in speed, reflexes, and defense IMO. Power is debatable, Broner is bigger it seems. And yes, people under rate Broner, that I agree with.

    Maybe the Beltran fight also played a role but I am not disputing anything you say in this quote. Do you think Algieri also beats Dulorme?

    Floyd won 7-5, Broner lost 5-7. Floyd basically won 1 more round than Broner did which made it swing.

    Fact of the matter is, you are probably an alt who's joined this year, or had an account before and was shamed into creating a new one. I've followed boxing for 20 years and boxed for over a decade. The fact is I've been registered and posting on this forum, and has never been shamed into creating a new one because I'm not often wrong in my predictions that I put out here which is more than you can say for yourself.

    Prov just gave Mathysee hell and demolished Alvarado. He's no slouch. A very tough, very strong, but limited fighter. A win over someone like that is impressive. If he was so easy to outbox, Alvarado would have done it.

    Beltran and Ricky Burns are D level fighters...really. Gamboa is a B level fighter, he's very good but small. So I dont care that he won fighter of the year, he shouldn't have.

    You mean the same Dulorme that Abregu stopped?

    I thought Abregu was a nobody, at least thats what *****s say when trying to discredit Bradley, of course in order to discredit Pac.

    Agendas agendas, everywhere.
