    Broner is a very young fighter. No need to go crazy and start matching him against all the greatest fighters. That would just be ******. Their plan is to fight all the top fighters at 135 and then move up to 140. That is a very smart plan, there's no need to rush him anyway, besides pleasing people that can't wait to see him get beat.

      Who has the chump fought, get off his sack for a minute and give a who's who of his resume? Broner is all mouth who fights nothing but small slow fighters. B rated BUM!

        How old are you? lol Grow up, son. Resume doesn't mean s**t. If you know boxing, you know Broner is a very talented fighter and looks better than most fighters right now. Why do you think he has already broke into several top ten P4P lists? Many experts are already convinced he is that good. It doesn't matter what some foolish poster like your self thinks.

          You could say the same for Matthysse. Not saying he's any better or worse than Broner but I'm not sure it's accurate to say he's nowhere near Broner's level. In those two, I think we're talking about the best fighters at 135 and 140 respectively.

              People just b1tching because it is Broner I don't mind this match up because he plans on fighting again on May 4th

              Not his fault Burns is afraid to fight him, Abril vs Bogere is back on so he can't fight Abril

              Vazquez I would love to see that fight but I don't see HBO taking that fight to be honest especially considering how AWFUL the Gesta vs Vazquez fight was which was really not all Vazquez fault

                He looks tough to me, very tough like Rios, but I don't see the same kind of skill in him that Broner has. Is Broner tough too? I don't know yet. I guess we just need to see them fight, but I'm not faulting Broners handlers for not rushing into things. He's only 23.

                  I often agree with you, but not here. That could be a part of the reason, I'll give you that, but its not the whole reason.

                      Of course Weebler would justify a fighter from the UK avoiding someone else. If Broner was from the UK and Burns was American, he'd be singing a different tune.
