Broner vs Malignaggi in June for WBA title

[Kirkland Laing]

After his last fight Broner said he was going to stay at 135 for a fight or two them move up to 140. Now he's going straight to 147 and will probably beat Paulie and own a belt at welter. How many fights does he have left at HBO? If he moves to Showtime then probably they're looking to put him in with Floyd at some point. He skips the logjam (and a possible defeat) at 140, gets a Paulie title fight and can then handpick his opponents while running his mouth and creating enough buzz to get a fight with Floyd. Or maybe he stays at HBO, gets a Paulie title fight and then handpicks his opponents at two million a pop ( if this contract story is true.) If he wants to make serious PPV money though he needs to fight and beat Floyd before somebody else does.

Please no. It would be like Lenin being replaced by Stalin. Or Simon Cowell by Piers Morgan. There is no God.

Hopefully somebody does replace him. If Trout bursts Canelo's bubble Broner is the only potential guy on the horizon who could possibly become a major PPV draw.

Trout loses to Canelo. While being undoubtedly very talented I don't think Broner is anywhere near the level of Mayweather. He somewhat exceeds him in the being a dick outside of the ring department which is pretty astonishing, but I don't think Floyd has slipped as much as people are saying. I don't think Trout has anywhere near the amount of ring smarts needed to avoid being caught in a barrage of combinations by the cinnamon kid and so The Canelo bandwagon will march on. I like the kid he is getting better each fight but even with a weight and size advantage Floyd is way too much for Alvarez right now.
