    Broner at 140..... Why???

    I can easily see 5 guys in the current top 10 that he wont be fighting.....

    Danny Garcia: on record..... fights not happening

    Lucas Matthysse: GB doesn't seem too warm to making Garcia-Matthysse would they be for Broner-Matthysse.?.?.? Possible but doesn't seem likely

    Juan Manuel Marquez: not happening


    Brandon Rios: TR


    Khabib Allakhverdiev: see Rios


    Mike Alvarado: see Allakhverdiev


    5 fights I don't see happening with a possible 6..... Imo there isn't much there to separate from whats happening at 135 at the moment.... If GB wont make Broner-Matthysse I would much rather see Broner-Vazquez because there isn't much at 140 outside of Broner-Matthysse

    Am I missing something??? Who should he fight when he moves to 140???

    Well if he follows up the Rees win by beating Burns, the interest will be there for an Amir Khan fight.

    I can see Judah fighting him too if he gets past Garcia. Lamont Peterson?

          Sucks that Haymon fighters don't fight each other. I think Broner will be up to 147 by 2015. I think Broner could end up fighting Matthysse, Mayfield (if he steps up and wins), Peterson, etc. Rios, Alvarado, and Khabib won't happen because of Top Rank. Arum basically promotes Marquez too, and I don't think Marquez would take that fight at this point either.

          But if he beat Matthysse, Peterson, Mayfield, that'd be a solid run at 140, given what was available.

            Basically because they are both Haymon guys, it won't happen.

                Quillin vs Fernando is happening though. That's a weak excuse.

                  As another posted, they're friends I guess. I highly highly doubt it's Broner who doesn't want it. I have a feeling Al doesn't want two future earners for him, Broner and Garcia, going H2H. He's been that way for awhile.

                    Broner is on record saying they are friends so that fight he isn't interested in it, I hope he moves up to 140 if the burns fight doesn't happen.
