Who wins?
Will we see Broner making a new record and becoming the youngest ever 4 division World Champion?
According to @GoldenBoyBoxing, there is zero truth to rumor that @AdrienBroner is fighting @kingpete26 on Oct. 18. #everyonerelax #boxing— Dan Rafael (@danrafaelespn) August 25, 2014
LMAO. How is it a rumor if the can man posted it himself? If this is not true he is basically admitting his fight on the 6th is just garbage.
Op didn't post the pic of them facing off. They're hanging out lol. And Taylor isn't a bad fight
Heard from a good source here in the DC area that this isn't true. I'm guessing Broner is f*cking with folks.
Yea I looked at his Instagram they look like they're joking lol. Good one op

If memory serves me correctly, this has happened to Matts before. His fight with Ajose was a co-feature, but became the main event because the other fight fell apart due to injury. I'm glad to see that all this friendliness between Broner/Pete won't be getting in the way of them fighting...assuming this is true of course.
U Know danny garcia the one that whether u like it or not is the one with the belts.
Garcia? Is he related to mikey lol?
When does Herrera move up to 147? Will he fight p4p king salka soon?
Alright, first of all I'm extremely interested in why his September fight got cancelled. Secondly, if Broner lets his hands go he'll win a decision
Me too, I usually just assume low ticket sales but I saw some posts from folks who said it was selling alright
Maybe the Taylor fight wasn't a hot ticket but I'm sure there was more to it
Personally, I had little interest in being forced to like that Garcia-Peterson fight. I felt Peterson was not legitimately relevant. Obviously Salka wasn't either - but that wasn't going to be sold as some sort of legit unification. A unifcation with someone who shouldn't even really be champion. Peterson should have been stripped after Khan, and then took a legit L against Matthysse, who opted to make it a non-title affair as to preserve the fight with Garcia. Not only that, but most interviews indicated that the Garcia-Peterson could very well have happened at a CW. **** that fight. This is much better, Broner and Peterson are on equal footing in their current state.
Damn right, I couldn't care less about a garcia-Peterson match up. But this is a very good one. Props to Broner for taking this. It's a good step up

Peterson should have been stripped after Khan; and even if you disagree with that, we all saw him take a legit L against Matthysse.
