That belt belongs to Al Haymon~

AL Haymon used to manage/advise Ted Dibiase in his younger days....look....

this guy is huge,watch his fight against de leon where de leon moved up for that fight and broners frame was just too much and with eloy perez too,his shoulders,back,just too big for these guys,i think he belongs at 140 not 135 where he will still go up over 15 pounds just watch

He probably should have started his career at LW, and should be going up to JWW now. But he started at SFW, oh well. I highly doubt when Broner's career is over that too many people will remember his fights against Ponce, Litzau, Perez, and Escobedo. Decent fights at the time, but he'll make his name for himself from 135-147, hopefully.

Time for him to go to LW and fight guys like Bogere, Lundy, Burns/Mitchell, DeMarco/Molina, etc. And hopefully Gamboa goes up to LW too, that could be his first "mega" type fight, like Corrales was for Floyd.

LOL Now Broner Can just skip light weight and meet rios at 140 to get an ass whooping. I dont think Broner can bank with alvardo, Rios, Hell even garcia lol.

Broner would destroy Rios ...rios sucks

Yeah Rios would catch an ass whooping of epic proportions

[spoonwars]

If I was Broner I would hit up the WWE and cop the old Million Dollar man entrance music and use that as I came to the ring, that would be classic.

That'd be awesomely hilarious.

It is disrespectful to my boy, to have this wannabe compared to him.

yeah probably so but a first fight at 140 that would make sense, testing the waters with a 140 and the name alone would look good on broner resume. But wont happen I just rembered rios is with toprank. means alvardo wont happen either so looks like garcia is up to bat.

I also predict that this is a slippery slope, and soon there will be a high profile time when a boxer is guilty of PED but still fights because they threw enough money at the system.

Sure looks like it. "It was just cough medicine and he didn't know there was something illegal in it."

For this crap, I'm glad to see Escovedo making way more than the contracted payout and team Broner taking a hit in the wallet. Now I'm just hoping it's a good fight.

Not sure why people think Broner should or is going straight to 140??? He weighed in at 133.5 for this fight, he can still make 135 for the next couple years probably. I think we'll see him fight 4-5 times at LW at least, if he stays active of course.

broner isnt going to 140. he can make 135. i dunno how many fights he will have there but he'd better get his **** together. this is a learning experience for him. i hope he learnd from it i really do. most young fighter have hiccups like this, but if u dont learn then u wll likely wind up being trash. we'll see tho.
