    Garcia is maybe an inch shorter than Broner. He is a big 126 pounder. The difference in technical skills is miles apart too. Garcia might be one of the best technical fighters in the world and that jab he has is definitely top 3 in the world right now. Broner eats too many jabs.

    I say Garcia picks him apart slowly the first 8 rounds and then starts putting his punches together when Broner starts getting bloody and desperate.

    when i say "too small" i'm not talking about height, im talking about size and body mass. he will not be able to take Broners shots and Broner would most likely walk thru all of his shots. walk em down and proceed to stops him. Garcia might be technically skilled but Broners combination of speed and power will be too much for a featherweight to handle. and Garcias defense isnt all that great either.

    Soto is well schooled and a good test for Broner. I don't expect much from Soto from here onward, but if he gets overlooked that's one mistake you don't want to do against a veteran like Soto. I still think Zorrita would have most success at 130, 135 onward he's struggled against B, C level fighters.

    i disagree. Broners speed and power was not too much to handle for PDL who has been known to have a shaky chin and bad defense. Garcia is definitely not slow either and his power is very good.
    I really miss watching him fight. He needs to stay in the ring.

    oh yea and how could i forget. Salido-Broner!!! Salido has called him out several times and Broner does not respond him. That is the fight that should have been made instead of Escobedo.

    Broner is not that same inexperienced 20 year old. u know it, i know it.

    thats like believing that Canelo hasnt improved since nearly getting stopped by Cottos little bro.

    how is that even comparable? Canelo was rocked by a left hook in the first round and then punished Cotto into a stoppage the rest of the rounds.
    Broner arguably lost to a former 122 pounder. For the record i had it a draw or Broner edging it.

    Another thing you need to realize is Broner has been kept away from punchers since then and that is for a good reason.

    **** i want Broner-Salido. that would have been great at 130.....
