I know the boxing world has a hard one for Broner. I get that, he looks spectacular in all his fights (Ponce de Leon is the exception and no rematch surprisingly) and he has the image of being a clown and he is exciting in and out the ring. Great. Boxing skills are high and he isn't afraid to land shots. Kellerman was almost arrested for sexual assault when he interviewed Broner for having Broner's nuts (without permission) all up and down his mouth. As great as Broner is I do not think he will be as good as the Charlo twins. Broner has speed and power but will that transcend as he moves up in weight? When he moves to 140 and 147 fighters will be able to hit just as hard as he does, can he take a solid punch and can he handle a real boxer/fighter? I would want him to fight either Marcos or his countrymen Lucas Matthysee. THat would be interesting and the winner from Judah and Swift. I want to see how he deals with all around fighter. Gavin gave him fits and to be honest that little man has heart!

The Charlo twins show such great poise and maturity in and outside the ring. In their fights they look as if they have been boxing for decades upon decades. The way they use their jab, speed, and defense is remarkable. They do no look for the knock out but instead they look for openings and placing their punches precisely where they want them to go. They are all around solid. They are methodical the way they box.

Thurman is an exciting boxing but I fear he only looks for the knock out punch, I think he will end up getting beat first than the aforementioned boxers. Of all the boxers I just feel that the Twins will be the most successful.

Thats a BIG dude. He looks 160 - 168 to me. If he's fighting at 147 - 154, then he's gonna dominate. He hits with a definitive THUD. Lara gave him some serious respect.

154...

lara is listed at 5'9...this dude has to be at least 6'1. he has a beautiful jab. that right hand landed clean and stunned lara. lara tried to act like it was on the back of his head. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) i would have too!
