Comments Thread For: Adrien Broner: Nobody at 140 Would Pose a Problem

[richardt]

Someone tried to say that if Abril could beat Rios, Broner automatically could. Thats the sign of a newbie to the sport. If that was the case then JuanMa hits wasy harder than Broner because he torched Ponce in less than a round and Broner couldn't even hurt Ponce. But thats not how it works. Every matchup creates variables and a chemistry of its own and Triangle Theories are not reliable because there are too many dynamics in a fight.

I don't like seriously undeveloped beings emotionally as Broner is but I am not one of those who says that as soon as he fights "fill in the balnks" he will lose. You don't have to like a fighter to see the potential and skills, thats bias. No, he is not going to take over Boxing, he will win some and lose some and can be a star. Nor and I going to say he is some monster with 8 arms. He is human.

Broner-Khan please

I agree outside of two names..... There isn't much at 140 that can or will be made

135 Vazquez and Abril I would like to see these match ups

Fact of the matter is you can't compare Broner's performance against Rees and DeMarco and assume he will fight the guys at 140 the same way. There's a lot more things that can happen over the course of the year and there's a lot of things in Broner's game that he hasn't and hasn't needed to put on display yet.

People just need to chill the **** out and just wait.

There's plenty of great fights at 140 that need to be made right now. Broner isn't needed in that division yet. He's a lightweight that makes weight drinking a can of Sprite.

Garcia/Khan/Peterson/Matthysse/Judah all need to fight each other

Broner needs to fight Abril/Bogere winner and Ricky Burns/Vasquez winner.

That's the only fights that matter at these weights right now. Everything else is just fantasy fights and speculation.

I agree Broner need s to stick around at 135 and at least fight the Vazquez Burns winner. I would also like to see how he does against a boxer like Abril.

WBC lightweight champion Adrien Broner (26-0, 22KOs) is seriously considering a a move to 140-pounds as early as his next fight. Broner is hoping to fight WBO champion Ricky Burns, but he won't wait around for the match.

Broner doesn't see any of the top names in the junior welterweight division - including Brandon Rios, Amir Khan, Danny Garcia and Juan Manuel Marquez - who would pose a problem for him.

Broner retained his WBC title for the first time on Saturday night at the Boardwalk Hall in Atlantic City, with a fifth round stoppage of British challenger Gavin Rees.

Not a chance boner boy! A childish insult (I know!), but a necessary one all the same. He's deluding himself if he thinks what he has faced so far in his career, will prepare him for what he is yet to face. The top 140 pounders, are bigger, stronger, hit harder, and are used to facing opponents who hit harder than Broner. His punch resistance will sorely tested against the likes of Mattysse, rios and Garcia, but I'm sure his team will help him to side step those testing battles.

this guy talks a lot'a **** for someone who has never fought anyone his own size. I think 140 is where broner gets stopped for the first time. I think matthysse or rios will get the job done

[MrClutch85]

Khan has never lost to anyone that much shorter than him like broner is.. broner would be too small and slow for Khan, maidana hits harder then broner does, broner has a punchers chance against Khan all he does is come forward and ****, Mosley was undefeated at lw too til he stepped up and fought guys his size

Broners not a defensive wizard either rarely moves his head just puts his arms up, against a tall fighter that wont work

Boxrec has Khan listed at 5'8 plus 71 inch reach Broner is 5'7 71 inch reach Khan is not that much bigger than Broner and Broner isn't slow he uses a wide stance but he has good foot speed. Broner might not be a defensive wizard like Mayweather but his shoulder roll defense is solid I ain't never seen him get with with a 2-3 punch combination just single shots

[ROSS CALIFORNIA]

Thats it ....it finalized.... Broner is a ******ed. 140 division is a different animal. He goes 140 he is toast.

Bookmarked.
