His big problem is that he just doesn't throw punches.

Guys who use that defense shell (Toney, Floyd, Bhop, Locche, ect) used it as a way to counter and set up offense. Maidana found out pretty quick that he could fire away without consequence because Broner wasn't looking to counter, so he did. He came in and smashed Broner to the body and head, and Broner let him do it like an idiot and gave away round after round.

I can't figure Broner out. He's supposed to be "virtuoso", a guy with incredible speed and skill who can dominate his opponent. But in the last several fights, his gameplan seems to be to give away rounds until he makes it that he may need a KO to win.

I've never seen real virtuosos like Floyd, Roy Jones, Ray Leonard, ect do that. Why does he think that's a smart way to fight? It's unreal.
