I think Broner earns extra points by the way in which he won, though. He stood in the pocket with a dangerous banger and blasted him out, whereas Floyd utilized his movement.
Corrales was 6'1 and outweighed Floyd by at least 10lbs. Broner could afford to stay in the pocket with a guy who was smaller than he was. Let's see him do it at welterweight. Corrales was much more a banger than DeMarco.
