    Guy is a joke, Ponce De leon already showed just how wack he is.

    Once he meets an elite fighter he will be exposed, guy dosen't even take boxing seriously and isn't the least bit funny.

    It depends on whether he follows his big bro's motto hard work dedication, cause talent alone can only get you so far

    Does Floyd accept Broner as his 'lil Bro'?

    So he struggled w/a guy that maybe he shouldn't have struggled with (missed that fight so I'm just goin' on what I read). Aside from that he beats people up and looks good doing it.

    I'm willing to give him the benefit of the doubt for now, but I wanna' see him get busy at 140.

    So I guess for me the jury is still out, but I'm trending optimistic.

    Its too early to tell IMO. I'm leaning towards elite fighter, but I won't call it just yet. The way he fought against PDL is why I'm on that fence.

    Give it three or four more fights and it should tell the different between B and A grade.

    Mayweather is 5'8 ... and he has a very similar style if not the same.

    Elite A level. He's Floyds offense with speed and power, but not the defense and Ring IQ, which is fine with fans that just want ko's. He's young and only getting better. He might be scary good once he does reach his prime, 25-30. Alot depends on his lifestyle, discipline, and mental makeup. Best young champion below 25 besides Chocolatito and Canelo.

    If he cherrypicks like his idol he can go to the top without ever testing himself.

    If he fights the best out there he will be exposed sooner or later.

    Solid fighter/title holder in multiple divisions. Despite being a good fighter, he's nothing special at all.

    Considering Gennady fought the same amount of talent that Broner had and looked just as impressive and how everyone thinks GGG can now beat Froch


    I say Broner will become an ATG.
