      RB outboxes Broner. Too tall, reach is too long, has boxing skills. Broner not ready for the Cuban

          If AB is serious about staying at 140, then I could dig this fight. It's a shame though. AB just hasn't been taking his career seriously enough to maximize his potential. He may come in overweight for this fight too... Aside from Crawford (who I believe should just move up aside from maybe a fight with Matthyse or Broner), these other guys need to start mixing it up. I know Troyanovsky just fought, but this division just seems like nothing happens for longer periods of time than others...

                  Him and his team should be taking to the WBC to put him in the eliminator with Orozco or Iman (Orozco hurt so Iman vs Balthelemy winner get a future day with Crawford)

                          No reason AB takes this fight other than a comeback with nothing else on the table

                              I would love this fight! I doubt Broner will oblige, and neither will Crawford. There's no upside fighting Rances yet. Rances should fight John Molina Jr., then aim for a title shot! Mikey Garcia will be in the 140 picture soon. That will be a good one!

                                  Barthelemy needs to get a belt first. It would be an interesting fight but Broner could find a more exciting opponent. No sense in signing up for a potential snoozer with no title on the line.

                                      He has a lot on the table, he's just too busy throwing it all away. He's turning into the Flanagan of American boxing. Everybody is calling him out.
