    It's actually a decent fight. A hell of a lot of people were completely fine with Pacquiao vs Margarito at 150 for the vacant WBC JMW title as Pacquiao's fight at 154. With Margarito not even being ranked in the top 10 at any weight class.

    Broner vs Malignaggi, one of the fighters actually hold a title, no vacant title, no catchweight hopefully, Malignaggi is ranked #6 WW.

    The problem here is that you guys think Broner is too good. Any other WW like Ortiz, Marquez, Guerrero, Bradley, Brook-Alexander winner, would have been seen as a legit fight. Crazy how you would think the complaints would be that Malignaggi is picking on a LW, but Broner is so good that it's seen as him picking on the WW.

      Definitely hear you on that one. David Diaz[worst title holder at the time], Margarito[vacant], etc.

                    Diaz beat Morales, who Garcia gets massive credit for nowadays and it was 5 years younger and at a better weight

                    He also beat santa cruz right before santa cruz embarrassed and shut out division champ Casamayor. That legitimized Diaz's belt right there

                      Ok i forgot its for June but i still think a belt at WW, no matter who it is, is better than a fight vs Abril or Burns or Vazquez for that matter. And STFU with that fanboy ****! Dont lump me in woth sone of these idiots. I just really think its a smart move and fighters run between divisions all the time so he can move down and still have good comp at WW as a champ.

                      The fighters we wanna throw him in with will still be there for next fight or next year and the fight will be bigger cause the hate will be.
