      If Broner indeed fights Abril, then he's serious about cleaning out the division. Richard is high risk/low reward. Even those that think Adrien wins easily have to believe Abril will make it an ugly fight. As "PBP" rightfully pointed out in another thread, it's tough to look good against Richie.

                Do you get bored when you watch the heavyweight division too?

                  I haven't seen it. Richie's got good skills, but he's tough to watch. He's a spoiler-type, the kind of guy that's hard to score. I can see why he loses close fights, although the Rios decision was just a disaster.

                    At least Abril and Vazquez have skill.....most of those fat Heavyweights are so limited in terms of actual skill it's sad.

                    Abril whupped Rios and Acosta, and can make a claim to have beaten Lundy as well.

                    I find it funny people were like "Broner needs to fight the top fighters in his weight class", and he does it....and it's "weak division, call me when he's at 140". The guy is the next guy to never get the credit he may end up deserving.

                      mark my words burns is no easy fight for broner !!

                      its easy to look good against a come forward head first slow slugger like deMarco , demarco is imo the perfect style match for broner , perfect to look good against !!

                      burns is a smarter, faster, ponce de leon !! .......... he will not stand there and be a punching bag like demarco did !
