    No!!!

    The fact that Broner went up to WW bypassing 140 is actually pretty great, no matter what people like to think of Broner.

    3 weight world champ at 26 is quality stuff.

    He was on pace on becoming the next big star, just stumbled on his way here and there. :hey

    Floyd does have those big names and he is regarded as the GOAT of 130 and did beat Castillo x2 at 35, but Broner has the weight divisions locked down here.

    Floyd was already a 2-3 weight champion at 26, and had wins over G. Hernandez, Manfredy, and Corrales. Corrales alone >>>>>> Anyone on Broner's resume.

    Also, Floyd at that age was a MUCH better and more skilled fighter.

    This can't be a serious question.Floyd by a mile.Broner has never fought an A level imo. Maidana/Porter are b+ and they both beat him convincingly.

    Broner is a talent but he not elite for him to be struggling with the likes of paulie is not a good thing.

    Let's also remember that Floyd won his first world title at 20 years old, in only his 18th professional fight.
