    They are black and undefeated and uses philly shell defense and high guard but it ends there.


    PBF version of Floyd has longer reach and taller making it more suitable for being slick and hard to hit since Floyd uses timing and range effectively.


    Floyd in his prime, 25-29 years old was so good he makes Broner pale in comparison when it comes to cat like reflexes, body twitching feinting, gliding in his footwork like it is nothing

    Floyd is very smart and actually make sense when talking even if he stutters, he still makes a lot of sense than Broner with his random nonsense floor tile remarks lol

    Overall, Floyd is faster too, watch the Mitchell/Gatti fight and compare it to Broner and you know Broner just isn't elite enough to be compared to the prime PBF.


    Again we are talking about Prime PBF and not Money Mayweather

    Similar how?

    I don't see any similarities, being honest.

    Floyd is on a totally different level, they're two different type of fighters. Broner will get shown up for his style soon, you'll see... he's no Floyd.

    U can only compare how there how at this age. Broner at 23 looks very simliar to Mayweather. Mayweather was still faster,better defense and more accurate. at 23 Mayweather had defened his title a ffew times and didnt fight his biggest competiton in Corrlaes yet.

    Broner is 23, just beat the best light weight, tried to unify like Floyd but Burns ducked him so now he moved to WW. great fights are coming soon.

    So if u ask me, they really look simliar. both very fast,good accuracy, same defense. hes the scary part.....Broner is only gonna get better. so wait a few years bro before u wanna say Broner is no where near Floyd. at this point when there were both 23, both very good, Mayweather a little bit faster and better defense.

    not the same really. some similarities. Broner fights more like james toney in some ways too.

    He's not as good as toney or floyd, but i see a mix between the 2.

    He;s definetly an exciting fihter.
