Originally posted by 4Corners View PostYeah but why does everyone think Matthysse kills everyone else??? He looks good, but he sure didn't kill Judah or Alexander at all.

But he's killed Soto and Ajose,a nd people think he'll kill every fighter around his weight hands down.
People still sleeping on Danny Garcia I see.

Oh I know he is. I'd favor him 100% to beat anyone at 140 with the exception of Marquez and Garcia. I'd favor Marquez 100% over him, and I think Garcia would be 50-50.
But all you see on here is comments like this.....
"Matthysse will tear his head off"
"Matthysse will skull f**k him"
Matthysse will f**king kill him"
I mean, the guy killed Ajose and Soto, had close fights with Alexander and Judah, and he kills everyone supposedly. That's all I'm saying.

Originally posted by 4Corners View PostSo if Gamboa beats Beltran and than Vazquez/Gesta or Salgado, and than Broner beats him....you won't give Broner credit??? Both would be undefeated and at/near Top 10 P4P.
We will see. As of right now, Gamboa stands to gain more from beating Broner.

Originally posted by kiaba360 View PostI'd give Gamboa more credit for beating Broner than vice versa, simply because of the size disparity. I believe in the adage, "A good big man beats a good little man". Broner's size advantage is substantial, and he's pretty good on the inside too. I would change my stance on the issue a little if Gamboa walks through Vasquez/Gesta without showing any decrease in speed/power. However, his ability to take a punch would still be in question. It's possible that Gamboa could be weight-draining himself right now, and he'd take a punch better @LW.

Stop naming Top Rank & 50 Cent fighters like Gesta, Rios, Bradley, Alvarado and Gamboa, Hell Al Haymon will not put Broner and Garcia in the ring anytime soon..
135
WBO: Ricky Burns
WBA: Gavin Rees/Richard Abril winner
IBF: Miguel Vazquez if he can beat Mercito Gesta
140
IBF: Lamont Peterson/Kendal Holt winner
WBA: Joan Guzman/Khabib Allakhverdiev

Originally posted by kiaba360 View PostDayum, that long?? If Matthysse gets his chance and beats Garcia, I don't see how Broner is gonna be able to avoid that fight. If Broner continues to fight three times a year, it'll be impossible for him to avoid Matthysse.
Then let's say he moves up to 140. We're in 2014 now. He's not going to fight Matthysse if a title is not on the line. So either Matthysse will have to be a title holder by that time, and that's assuming that he hasn't already moved up to 147 by that time.
That fight is just so far away from happening and depends on several scenarios that can take place over the next 2-3 years.

It seems like Broner will become the next cherry-picker in boxing. He says he wants to separate himself from Floyd, but I bet he'll take the same route.Last edited by kiaba360; 11-18-2012, 01:59 PM.
