Don't like him as a person, seems to be a Mayweather wannabee, but as a fighter he looks a bit special, he makes a defence of his WBO Super Featherweight title on Saturday against fellow unbeaten fighter Eloy Perez. How far can Broner go? i think he has the potential to be p4p, long term, of course.

Has the potential for sure.

Has a decent dig in his punches, fluid combos, good speed and defensively looks A LOT like Mayweather (although he doesn't box in the pocket as much as the young version of Mayweather).

One to keep an eye out for... plus his after fight interviews are funny - "Daddy! Daddy! Brush ma hair man! Ima on the TeeVee!"

PS. He looks massive for super-feather don't you think?

He does have pontential. But the Ponce De Leon fight did raise a few questions on how he would cope with fighters who would apply constant pressure. It was a close fight which could of went either way.

I cant see him fighting any of the Japanese fighters Uchiyama or Ao due to them failing leave Japan or recognising the WBO as a world title so I move up looks on the cards in the near future, if he's to step up in class of opposition. The is a few decent fights there for him at Lightweight which would be a good gauge on how good he is.

He is a huge super featherweight and hits like a mule. He throws good combo's but would rather pot shot. His defence is very much like mayweather a and he does pull it off. Unfortunately he isn't mayweather, he isn't going to perfect it like gene has.

I've seen him been caught with clean shots from slowish and limited fighters.

He is the top super featherweight and he should meet new problems against another good unbeaten fighter in Perez

Definitely looks huge at the weight, he looked a lot bigger than Alexander and Maidana at the press conference the other day
