Comments Thread For: Broner Hints That He May Drop Down To 140, Even 135

[MC Hammer]

People around here were saying Broner-Judah before this fight...

Actually I like that one. Judah will be a live underdog in it. His hand speed, movement and southpaw stance could cause Broner real problems. I think he'll be able to take Broner's punch well.

[Apple Mac Stud]

He won't drop to 140 and since they said Maidana could be his next fight he won't stay at 147. If Maidana hits him with what Paulie hit him last night he gets KOed.

Who the **** is he gonna fight at 135? He wont fight Vazquez, Gamboa or Abril cause his people know he can't deal with movement and jabs...

Are you serious? Broner won't stay at 147 because of slow, flatfooted and easy to hit Maidana? Really? Maidana brings more power but THAT'S IT. This fight would be easier than the Paulie fight! Unlike Paulie, Maidana would be a stationary target with no head movement. Easy money for Broner.

He'll get fxxked up at 140 by Garcia, Lucas and Judah and at 147 he's going to have a lot more heat on him from the likes of Thurman, Guerrero, Khan moving up and also the return of Victor Ortiz. He should just go to 135, beat up some more midgets, play it cool, wait for Garcia to leave 140 then go up and fight there avoiding Lucas. He should be fine then.

Paulie's hands are faster and he throws a helluva lot straighter than Lucas, and he couldn't land on AB. He missed 630 punches. And the ones he landed were most either grazing blows or shoe shine punches to the body. Broner would chew Lucas up if he comes in thowing all of those wide ass punches. Broner would counter him to death.

malignaggi's problem is that he is weak as hell, lucas will have more success blasting through broners gloves, and with his strenght can position broner

but i do think it would be a good fight and more competitive than most think, although lucas can land an early killer

[HanzGruber]

He should go to 140. He did look kind of weak and small last night he needs to wait and grow into a weight class

[kiDynamite92]

if lucas hits that body cleanly, Broner will crumble. He can't do what he did with Paulie against someone with bone crunching power.

Broner gets ktfo by Matthysse. Lucas doesn't have slow hands and can set up bigger punches that would crack through the guard...It won't be long and Broner will be exposed as the next hyped up Berto.

[Mr. Philadel]

140 is the division his critics say is the toughest for him....I don't think so, besides a counter left hook form Swift, and the speed from Khan, there's not too much danger there....147 is where he gets that work imo...his power might still carry at 140 but at 147, he's gonna have to put in some rounds...and thats when it gets interesting for AB imo

I'd like to see Crawford go to work. He'd beat Broner.
