    Those victories were clear UDs.

    Only on the judges scorecards, they were much more competitive in reality.

    They were fairly competitive. But, Broner won clearly. And, as I said, he would be competitive with any of the top 140 pounders. I didn't say he would win necessarily. But, those fights will go all 12 rounds. He may even score some KDs. Lucas can be put down. Ruslan does not have a face that holds up all that well over 12 rds. Peterson can be put down. Herrera wouldn't win even if he won. Danny is moving up. Crawford we are still learning about at 140.

    The point is if Broner is as good as people think/thought then he shouldn't have lost a single round to the likes of Taylor and Molina let alone have competitive fights with them should he? He should have outclassed and shut them out with ease or even knocked them out.

    Taylor and Molina weren't top 10 at LWW and never will be, that convinces me Broner wouldn't beat many top 10 LWW's

    I'm not overhyping him. That is the difference. And, as I said, he would be competitive with the top guys at 140. He's still learning, obviously. But, he's not losing to a C fighter at 140.

    I don't need to sh!t on the guy; because, he lost 2 fights against top 10 WWs, when he shouldn't have even been at WW.

    What we have learned about Broner, up to now, is that he can't beat the best WWs. He does have the power to hurt them though. He hurt Maidana and he put Porter on his a$$. We don't really know how he will fare against the best at 140. Because, he hasn't fought the best there yet.

    Although Malignaggi and Maidana both claim Khan hits harder than Broner. And Maidana said he was only hurt when Broner blatantly punches him 5 seconds after the bell had sounded. I think Porter was caught just being reckless.

    I wouldn't even give Broner a punchers chance against someone like Khan.

    I would give Eric Crumble a punchers chance against Amir. :nod

    Sorry but how and why was Khan "drained" in your opinion?

    It's not 2011-2012 and 130 pounds anymore for Broner. I don't think I would pick him to defeat any of them (although I suspect if he fought them all that he would beat a couple of them). I think a couple of the fights might be close but Broner has continued to fall further into the offensive black hole of his fighting style.

    I picked everyone but Herrera's adopted son, Benavidez.

    Good call. I think Broner probably bests him. Certainly the fight he'd have the best shot in.

    Because Khan took about 17lbs off on fight week when he was 140.

    Don't forget though. Broner is Brook's great, great Grandson

    Brook > Porter > Alexander > Maidana > Broner.
