What happened to fighting Redkach? That was at least an interesting brawl to watch.

What’s the scouting report on Rivera? I see he has a nice undefeated record but hasn’t faced a known name.

Inexperienced 135 guy who pressures, decent punch selection, alright power.
A focused broner should beat him though, rivera not difficult to read and will have a size disadvantage. So broner more likely to let his hands go.

Thanks bud, just as I figured, an easy opponent for Broner. Knowing AB though, he'll still find a way to under perform and make this close.

Is anybody going to watch it though?

Broner does good numbers

What weight? Broner was planning on fighting at 140, but I doubt he was going to do so for his comeback fight. Maybe catchweight at like 144? If that is even possible?

And yes, Rivera certainly has a chance in this fight.

Wow. Extremely high risk, low reward fight for Broner. Rivera can fight! Even with the size advantage, I see this as a close fight. Props to Broner if he indeed agrees to this fight.
