    Richard Schaefer pushed for the broner-maidana fight. They wanted to build broner as a cash cow and thought he would beat chino.

    Chino was also broners mandatory.
    I'm not sure Haymon and other people in Broner's team were so eager to fight Chino. Who was really eager was Chino's team and GBP. Before the fight was agreed, there was even a version that Broner would relinquished his WW title. You can check my previous posts, because I posted this information from reliable press sources.

      The real question is why is AB trying to fight at 147? There are a ton of fights available at 130/135/140 in a division he would dominate, and with his star potential (read: hatred that everybody has for him)... he would make some good dough.

        I very rarely say that of a fighter, but Broner is a complete idiot. Whatever goes out of his mouth doesn't have any credibility in my opinion. Above all, he is a very average boxer.

          Maidana beating Broner the way he did was very, ver good for GBP .

            Forget Soto Karass etc why not Robert Guerrero?
            Adrien Broner said he is easy money, I'd be willing to bet that Guerrero would put a worse beating on Broner than he did to Berto infact I think Broner would quit.

              He isn't an average boxer, he is very talented its just he lacks depth to his fight game.

              When Broner was down at 130/135lbs he had a massive weight advantage at times, he looked like a monster compared to the guys he was fighting but now at 147lbs we only now get to see how not special he is but regardless of that he is a talented fighter he just so happened to of came across Maidana a man who crushes American hype.

                Could you elaborate? Because I still don't see it clearly.

                    I don't see Broner beating any top guys at 140-147

                    I'd favor Lucas Ghost Thurman Garcia hell I think even Ortiz can beat Broner.

                      Maidana becomes a higher earning headliner and his name is "bigger".

                      He becomes a legit fight for floyd-thus giving GBP another option than Khan, which everyone criticized.

                      Makes the broner/maidana rematch huge. Makes the matts/maidana fight bigger.

                      Might make broner go to 140 or 135 where there are better fights.

                      Gives khan time to get credible wins and earn a floyd fight.
