It would be easy to hate on AB - I did in the past before he got whooped by Maidana.
The bottom line here is that AB found out what it means to fight a live dog at 147 in Maidana, if they fought again I would still back Maidana for a win, maybe even a KO.
AB's last two fights have don e little to convince me that he is a genuine contender at 147 or even 140.
He is an entertaining character with some real boxing ability but I would be surprised if he got a title at 147.
I'd like to see him really tested again, to see if he realises his potential but IMO both Matthesye and Garcia would beat him at 140 as would all the current belt holders at 147.
140 - I'd like to see him fight Crawford if he comes up.
147 - Khan or Porter.
