I completely agree with Kellerman. A great win over the tough as nails DeMarco should put Broner in the top 10, although I doubt that will happen.

Kellerman told Thaboxingvoice.com “If he [Broner] dominates DeMarco, that’s a real bold statement. To me, he jumps to the top ten on many pound for pound lists as many expect he will end up anyway.”

Kellerman: Broner is a bigger puncher than Mayweather

Image: Kellerman: Broner is a bigger puncher than MayweatherBy Scott Gilfoid: HBO expert analyst Max Kellerman sees former WBO super bantamweight champion Adrien Broner (24-0, 20 KO’s) as a bigger puncher than Floyd Mayweather Jr., but not quite as good as him defensively. Kellerman is able to see differences between the two talents, and doesn’t see Broner as a copy-cat clone of Floyd like a lot of boxing fans think.

Speaking to thaboxingvoice.com, Kellerman said “He’s [Broner] a good defensive fighter but not quite as good as Floyd. In actuality, he’s a better puncher than Mayweather and maybe a better puncher than I think he knows he is.”

Kellerman said to Thaboxingvoice.com “He’s [Nishioka] a tremendous fighter, but he’s 36-years-old and Donaire is a special talent…Donaire might knock Nishioka out. I think he’s that good.”

Kellerman sees Rios vs. Alvarado ending up fight of the year

Image: Kellerman sees Rios vs. Alvarado ending up fight of the yearBy Allan Fox: HBO analyst Max Kellerman foresees the October 13th match-up on HBO television between #3 IBF light welterweight contender Mike Alvarado (33-0, 23 KO’s) and #4 WBO Brandon Rios (30-0-1, 22 KO’s) ending up as a fight of the year for 2013 at the Home Depot Center, in Carson, California. Kellerman could be right if Alvarado fights the way he normally does, and Rios is able to fight like he did back in 2010, before he started having problems making weight for his lightweight bouts.

Kellerman told Thatboxingvoice.com “I just think that’s the fight of the year. I’d be shocked if it wasn’t. Maybe the fight of the last couple of years.”
