I genuinely like Broner, but albeit in a bit of an ironypilled wayWeve found Broner’s sole fan.
Anyway my current faves are Beterbiev, GGG, and Benn.

i’m a huge fan of conceição but he reminds me of rigondeaux, negatively, at times with his willingness to play 100% defense and effectively showboat with his defensive skills. he’s really an elite fighter though and i would love to see a valdez rematch before it’s too late for him.hell yeah, Conceciao has problems pushing himself and has lapses but when he's on the dude can box with the best of them. I'd actually love to see him box with Rakhimov, which could happen because I'd pick Conceciao in a rematch over Valdez easy and I think Rakhimov beats Ogawa.
Estrada and Donaire? Well I just love the golden oldies.
yeah I actually totally agree. A little less of the flashy, super dramatic slips we see with Rigo, and a bit higher output, but the same lapses in focus and lack of urgency that we see in Rigo sometimes. Still, I'd love to see a Valdez rematch, I didn't agree at all with that first decision and he's the rightful WBC champion in my eyes.i’m a huge fan of conceição but he reminds me of rigondeaux, negatively, at times with his willingness to play 100% defense and effectively showboat with his defensive skills. he’s really an elite fighter though and i would love to see a valdez rematch before it’s too late for him.
i’ve always felt brazil was a super talented crop but soccer & mma are still king over there. wish conceição could become as big of a star as popo to really drive up the passion for boxing over there. they loved popo freitãs something fierce.yeah I actually totally agree.

edit: side note but Brazils team development has really been an underdiscussed story in amateur boxing.
