Golden Boy Promotions CEO Richard Schaefer has advised BoxingScene.com that his legal team is ready and willing to pounce on Showtime Sports Promotions [not to get confused with the American cable network].

Over the last few weeks, Showtime Sports Events (SSE), run by Johnny Eames, have been sending out numerous press releases related to an event on May 18th in Abu Dhabi. According to the press releases, WBA welterweight champion Paulie Malignaggi would appear in the main event against Humberto Soto or another potential opponent.

Now that would be interesting, but there are so many better fights at 140. Why skip it.

HA!!!! Broner moves up to the weakest division yet and skips over the most beastly division right now, smart move GBP

[IronDanHamza]

What?

Why would Broner skip 140?

[Hougigo]

Hahaha, looks like the one to capitalize on the "strongest" welterweight champ is Broner.... who would've thunk it

Why do you think? Put him up with an aging veteran with no power, can’t risk Broner against guys that can end his career in one fight.

Doubt it......

Huh Malignaggi vs Broner at 147 makes no sense

[Kagami Taiga]

good fight, crap decision. why the **** would they even do that? i dunno wtf is wrong with schafer but he seriously needs to get it together with these **** ideas.

[Fetta]

Just because he has interest to move up doesnt mean he cant move down one class. but this is all talk right now
