Matthysse, Garcia, Khan, Rios, marquez, alvarado, guerrero and bradley could all fight at 140. Will Broner man up and move up, he easily has the size. Plus how would he fare against each of these fighters, what you think?
The guy is 23, already just moved up to 135 and beat the #1 fighter there. And people want him to go straight to 140 before he's even 24 yet. He'll get there, probably in 2014. There's still some possible good fights at 135. Burns/Vazquez, Abril/Bogere, and maybe Gamboa.
No, he's calling out JWW's and WW's

i vote no. he will probably take 2 more fights at 135 after he beats rees. then move up. but by that time, khan garcia peterson and matthyssee will probably be at 147.
Why are we asking if he is moving to his 3rd weight division?
He compares himself to Floyd, who did move up divisions.
He says he will do more than Floyd, which could be taking on his 3rd weight class while all the big names are there.
Do big things for his career.
So I don't see the hate in this question? It is a very good one.
real talk bro, the die hard broner fans (we need a name for them) are like the *****s they get so defensive and will back anything their fighter does regardless
This is like the 10th thread asking about Broner and will he duck the guys at 140. Sh*t makes no sense we don't even know what fighters will be there at 140 when he gets there. Hes a 23 yold light weight fighting in his right weight class.
Why would he duck anybody at 140? You can bet ur ass there won't be a line down the block to fight him especially if he gets stronger and keeps his speed and pop at 140.
no way is he in his correct weight class he is way bigger than everyone.... and are you kidding me.... rios, matthysse and khan are 3 guys who i could see wanting broner forsure
I think the reason people want to see him move up is quite obvious myself and a combination of a few things. Hes huge at the weight and there is nothing really at 135. People want to see the kid tested plain and simple.
You can say Vasquez and that is fair enough but IMO its a fight we could live without. Look I respect Vasquez but the guy is one of the most boring boxers too ever live.
The same people who moan about others wanting him to move up are mainly the same people who moan about his competition and are the same people will likely accuse him of waiting for the 140lb division to die.
If he moves up soon, I will give him props even if he gets KTFO in his first fight at 140. I just think 135 is pathetically weak atm and there are a lot of fights I'd love to see him at 140. Only fight I'd personally want to see at 135 is actually if Guzman dropped down which I think he could & probably should.
Yeah, like Berto. Bum, bum, bum, overwhelmed, bum, steroids, overwhelmed.
I know what you mean though.
LOL...Berto was protected because he was garbage. Let's be real.
Remember when matchmaking you look at risk/reward. And the goal for a promoter is to build the biggest money fights possible. Broner isn't going to make any money for himself, Al Haymon and GBP if he continuously fights Gavin Rees caliber guys in Atlantic City.
Broner vs. guys like Garcia and Khan are big money fights so of course they will be made if they are on winning streaks and they cross paths. It's good business. Matthysse not so much unfortunately because he's a high risk fight with no money involved.
That's not the fan speaking that's just the brutal hard core truth. I would love to see Broner vs. Matthysse but realistically it will never happen.

Even if a lot of the 140 pound fighters move up to 147 before he gets there, he will eventually meet them at 147. If they are not around by then, than they were never good enough to beat him in the first place.
Broner is doing the whole floyd routine.
Strategic movement within boxing divisions and let everybody beat each other up and swoop in to pick up the pieces.
Sort of like Floyd retiring after the hatton fight when 147 was the deepest and hottest in all of boxing.
he's following floyd's footstep to a tee.
It's that stupid ass pound for pound list, his mouth and the Floyd comparisons.
Luckily Al Haymon is one of the best in the business and knows how to properly manage a career of a young fighter.

Good post.
Haymon will keep Broner down the right/wrong path.

Why would he need to move up, theres no Rees at 140
lol, theres technically no nobuhiro ishida at mw but that didnt stop pirog and golovkin from making it the case
The amount of disrespect Dallas Jr. gets is really saddening to me.
He went all on the line against Lucas knowing full well the consequences, he dared to be great.

did mathysse's 30 y0 ass rush to fight the top fighters at 140? where were the ppl demanding fat ass rios to move up in weight when he was clearly draining himself and barely making weight if not at all? why are ppl beasting to see this particular guy move up?
Mattyhse just KO'ed all time great Sugar Mike Dallas, and Henry Ajose Olusegun.
