    None of those wins are horrible that wasn't my point. My point was he didn't beat the best at any of those divisions, the only reason he's a four division world champion is because there's four different divisions who often have fifth rate fighters as their champions.

    I'm not familiar with Leo Gamez he might be better than him but not any of the others.

    That would be:
    Donnie Nietes
    Érik Morales
    Tommy Hearns
    Roberto Duran
    Juan Manuel Marquez - if you count his W over Serhii Fedchenko
    Nonito Donaire
    Pernell Whitaker
    Leo Gamez
    Roy Jones Jr.
    Miguel Cotto
    Roman Gonzales
    Mikey Garcia

    And then there is James Toney who won belts at 160, 168, 200 and 200+. But his W over Ruiz got overturned to a NC and he was then stripped of the WBA belt.

    And lets not forget Robert Guerrero:

    Yes. He is. Also the longest lived hype job in the sport. He can't get the spark back cuz he never had it. What he had previously that he lost was a willingness to melt down in weight.

    Gamez > Broner, end of debate, I'm guessing most Broner stans (nor haters) knows enough about Gamez to comment.

    So yes he's clearly the worst, by far, and saying that isn't even degrading to Broner, when you consider the names on that list.

    Yes easily and for those of you saying how good he was before Maidana, watch the PDL fight and you will see that he never was that good.

    It's easier to look good when your fighting you dwarf and are much stronger than them.

    His life of immaturity and lack of discipline outside of the ring killed his career.

    He’s neck to neck with Duran.

    Sugar Ray Leonard, Oscar De La Hoya, Floyd Mayweather, Manny Pacquaio and Jorge Arce too, and he's obviously not better than any of those.

    I think Arce held belts in 5 divisions.
    SRL, Mayweather, Pacquiao and De La Hoya held belts in 5+ divisions.

    That is the "more than four" division list. @Badbot 's original list was all the (literally) exactly four-time champs, excluding "more than 4x" guys as obviously Broner isn't better than any of them.
