      50 is looking for Haymon's number, not Broner's.

        I'll be on my own here but it is not a fight I particularly want to see because the size differential is just absolutely ridiculous.

        Whilst Gamboa is an incredible talent he is 5ft5 & would be pretty maxed out at 130 while Broner wouldn't be the smallest welterweight in the world, he is 5ft7/8, 71" reach and has a very big frame, he walks around at 155-160.

        I feel Gamboa's speed, movement, angles would give Broner a lot of problems but the guy is colossal for 135lb. If he can make the weight fine but he gets no credit from me until he goes to 140 and fights guy near his own size in what is a far deeper division. In fact the only fight I'd have any interest in with Broner being at 135 is when Guzman is all healed if he would drop to 135.

          Hmm.
          Nope. That's a thing of the past. It's obvious why.

          Weight is not the problem. Gamboa walks around the same weight.

            If 50 makes this happen he's already better than Bob Arum at this.

              Ponce de leon is mad at Gamboa cuz he said that broner stoned him a couple times and gamboa not..ponce said that that will be a fair fight 50/50 but somehow he was wiped out by
              Gamboa but had a close fight with broner..

                Until 50 makes a big fight with GB, no one is going to take this fight seriously.

                      Too soon for Gamboa, he really needs to get back in now and move his career forward but even then at which weight would this fight happen? Broner is a big boy who would probably start fighting at 140 soon and Yuri doesn't seem like he can go up to 140 and be competitive.
