I don't see any lightweight beating Broner! The only challenges I see for him are at 140 and above. IMO, he's the future of this sport!

Good fight
I think Broner is going to be the face of boxing, but only if he can unify titles. Unify the titles at 135, then fight a couple more times, defending all of the belts, before going to 140.
In my opinion, too many of the 140 pound fighters went to 147 too fast (See Khan). Broner need to cleanup 135 and then in a couple years, he would truly be ready for 140. If he do the same thing at 140, he'll be at his prime by the time he fights at 147 and/or 154, depending on where his body finally fills out at.
I guess I'm one in a few that could care less about someone having titles in 4-7 different weight classes. I like to see a guy like B-Hops be on top of a division for several years. If you are the champion, you keep fighting and defending your belt until someone take it, not win a title and then jump to another division. I do think that the smaller fighters have an exception because the young fighters usually get a little bigger with age. I guess I get tired of hearing a fighter say that they are in the best shape of their lives, then after they lose, they make the excuse that they were weight drained.
