Hope I am wrong, but I am taking Broner in a mid to late round stoppage, with Rees bravely going out on his shield.
Broner is no Lacy and will not be a Jeff Lacy. Broner has that born with talent that was not developed by anyone but himself. Yes he's a twat but he's also a kind of hybrid. A subtle mixture of Benton, Floyd and Burley. Lacy was a one dimensional hooker and the only reason he had the success he did is because his opponents broke a cardinal rule which is never hook with a hooker.

In a perfect world he fights Gamboa but due to strained relationships I cant see that happening. Marquez would be interesting but the timing of his rise may coincide with Juans retirement.

FTR there is a part of me actually cheering for Gavin because of the odds and the way he has been written off as some domestic unworthy of the task.
