Abril isn't much of a threat to Broner. I know people are high on him now but that's just because Showtime is hyping him up to be. you can't trust anything they say because the president is a former GBP lawyer, even Paulie is an active fighter under contract by GBP. it's call a conflict of interest and you have to question their integrity.
as to why Abril is made for Broner is simple.
Abril is a low volume mover. his jab isn't very accurate nor does he throw it with any authority. Broner would win most of the rounds by landing a few crowd pleasing punches.
Vazquez is far a superior boxer. I'm not saying Vazquez beats Broner but his movement and his jab would be a stylistic nightmare for Broner. plus Vazquez never gets tired. Broner would have a good chance at losing but he's good enough to win.
people just hate on Vazquez because they either think boxing is supposed to be like rock em sock robots or they understand Vazquez's technical ability but don't really appreciate that style of boxing.
HBO and Showtime down play the guy because Broner is money and if Vazquez should beat him they both lose a lot of money invested in Broner or possible future earnings
