Who and why?

6 cause I think these 6 would obviously beat him, as for the rest of the top 10 there I'd either pick them slightly (Ped, Garcia) or I think it's 50-50 (Khan, Vargas). I'd slightly favor him against Khan but thats it.

Bradley because he has no power, doesnt have the best defense, and is a sloppier puncher....open for counters all day.

Pacquiao because he's smaller & doesn't have the best chin

The was the game plan they worked on. Rau'Shee Warren talked about it over and over leading up to the fight....that he was working on his power to KO dude.

That was Hunter's game plan.
I don't believe that is what Hunter told him from monitoriing how Barry trains and his guys. If Warren was dumb enough to take away that he could abandon boxing skills and just head hunt as if he was a power puncher that came from him not Barry IMHO.

That said we can agree to disagree on Barry.

I think Bradley would spoil and outbox him to a clear UD.

Pac hasn't got the best chin but hasn't got a horrible one either and I think he would outwork and overwhelm Bronet like he does most of his opponents. Broner's workrate would waay too low for Pac.

Working rate doesn't win fights, who lands the most clean/effective punches do.

That's why AB keeps getting the win:manny:

And because some judges rate the so called eye catching shots too much :yeshrug:

I don't think Pac would only outthrow Broner I think he would outland him too by a definite margin. Pac is old but I still have him on my p4p list. 147 is the land of the killers especially compared to 140. While I think Crawford wiuld be a top 3 fighter in ww too and potentially would rule it I don't see the same in AB. Let's not start to argue avout that now though that is just based on my "eye test".

Yes. People on here literally argued that AB couldn't beat Imam. Instead, AB beats the guy who KTFO Imam with only 1 hand, and AB is the one who's trash.

dawg you sound like a fukking casual keep leaning on this
transitive relationships don't work in boxing, assuming everyone is on the same level
that's boxing 101
granados and broner fight nothing alike, and it seemed like imam was mostly overwhelmed by granados pressure which would't happen against broner
who knows if imam is a fraud of if he just had a bad night but your argument holds no weight
if imam had won that fight as expected then i wonder if broner would have fought him :jbhmm:
(probably not)

I truly don't care about Crawford. The only time it's even an argument is on here....in the real world, Crawford/Broner is never discussed as Ive always said.


Pacquiao can beat Broner...I think AB wins in an upset.

I cannot see Bradley beating AB at all.

But at the end of the day, he's "past it", but still winning....so what does that say about the opponent?


Y'all can't keep bashing AB, but then go on to hype up his opponents when they face someone else.


If a past it AB can beat Granados with 1 hand, then what does that say about everyone else Granados beat or lost a SD too? They HAVE to be bums then:manny:


If Granados goes on to have a close fight with someone else, then they are automatically bum status, bc a past it AB beat Granados with 1 hand.


Ima need some consistency here.

It's like any good talent, even their mediocre game is better than most less-talented best game.

And we not measuring AB by the same standard as Theopane Khabib and AG.

The expectation is that he separates himself from these guys, and is competitive or even rises above top guys at 147. And that's what he's been selling us. I just want to see it.

AB maxes out at 140. Hopefully he wises up and realized that 147 needs to be his last stop. Later in his career he can fight at 47 but for right now he needs to fight at 40

I favor Bradley over broner
His wins over Paq and Marquez, specially the clinic he put on Marquez>broners best win.
Bradley fights sloppy and tries to fight his opponents fight and slug it out, broner ain't that type of fighter so I'd expect a focused Marquez fight Bradley

He won't make it, you'll see, he is stuck in one of the if not the strongest divisions now.
