He made Khan reevaluate his style and change everything. I'm a Broner hater but he looked good against Molina. Granted, Molina fought like carp looking for a shot that wasn't coming but still, a much more refined Broner. I think the whoopin Maidana put on Broner actually helped Broner out.

I don't understand Garcia, he has shown he can be a great fighter but his last three fights have been abortions. If Broner and Garcia got in a brawl Garcia may have a better shot but at this point I have lost my confidence in him. I still like him, when he was on top he remained humble, I always like that in a fighter. So when you compare each fighters last couple fights I'd have to say Broner has a very good chance but maybe Garcia needs a fight like that to light a fire under his ads, a fight like that and cut the umbilical cord with his father. He is becoming irrelevant while winning fights, I've really been scratching my head.
I agree that Garcia has become a puzzle with a missing piece.
Fast handed, mobile, boxer punchers have suddenly become a stylistic nightmare for him. Herrera gave him fits and there's no doubt in my mind Peterson could have beaten him if he had started fighting earlier.
Is his father the problem, was he lucky against Khan and Matthysse, is that sixth toe getting too big and slowing him down? Lol It's a mystery, as my Uncle Ruben used to say.
I want to see Broner vs Garcia, like several of you have already said stylistically it's a good matchup.
