Herrera getting a shot would be just! Peterson is standing around twiddling his thumbs with a trinket he shouldn't own? Personally I prefer to see him go against Matthysse or a Provo and get stomped out like a used up cigarette butt. Broner can win all the trinkets he wants but I don't see him making the adjustments in mind and skill to ever be ahead of also ran frankly. I'd bet the house on that, and maybe even my neighbors.
    I thought Jessie Vargas was with Top Rank these days. If so their MO is to pick up belts without fighting champs unless it's TR/TR. I believe Jessie is the "regular champ" to Garcias "super champ" so if Garcia vacated Vargas would probably face the interim champ to become full champ.(assuming the interim champ is TR. Provodnikov has tthe WBO I believe and Peterson the IBF. That leaves the WBC(again assuming Garcia vacates). That could be why Shaeffer is talking about a Broner/Matthysse matchup. Unless Haymon can pull some strings there is no easy way to a belt. Two are difficult to sign against(Prov, Vargas) and two are likely to be difficult matchups(Peterson and likely Matthysse)
    I really have a Peterson or Herrera feel, the family/associate break down is too true but Haymon has darn near signed a small country of players as of late...betting they are high fiving in the backroom regardless and knowing it makes bank for all. Haymon is a puppet master. Broner is top 5 in ibf 147 and wouldn't shock to see him fill a wide open top spot at 140 for a Vargas go. He lost some of his pop and appeal after last fight with Khabib I think and should be thankful just to be keeping it warm.

    Broner suffered massive damage in the Maidana fight. He will not be the same at ANY weight. Looking massive and being the same are 2 totally different things. Broner is shot to shit. He may get 1 more KO on his record, then he will lose 3 in a row and go the DAVID THE AMERICAN DREAM REID route.

    Broner definitely had his ass handed to him by Maidana, but "suffered massive damage", I don't think so.
    I'm not ready to throw Broner out with the trash yet. I still think he is almost as good as he thinks, and hope the results this Saturday will make things clear for us.

    Only belt that looks half decent on him are those played out, tacky ass Gucci belts every brotha loves to wear, thinking they making some kinda fashion statement. So fuckin tacky smh.lol

    These new school rap generation couldn't spell " class " and " style " to save their lives.

    Understated fashion is real fashion. Any clothes that has a big logo on the front like look at me, I'm wearing gucci is called tackyness.

    Men with pizazz don't wear no big logo shit.

    Broner would have stayed down vs Tito. He slipped more punches with one eye than Broner could even as a jellyfish

    i think broner can be a very good fighter

    i think he is in the position he is in now due to terrible match making

    i think if he carear is driven wisely then he can find himself in a very good position

    I don't think terrible matchmaking has anything to do with it. Up to, and including, the Maidana fight...Broner was the heavy favorite against all the guys he faced. But you could see weaknesses in his game early. For all his physical talent...his defense was vastly overrated. Add to that his clear lack of discipline...and it was only a matter of time before he was exposed. Basically Broner wanted to be Floyd without having any of the foundation that Mayweather built before his "Money" persona. His handlers will feed him some B/C level talent to build him up again...but i am by no means confident in him being a great champion.

    I think he can win a trinket and could put up a good fight against Danny Garica.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    Broner likes to walk people down. If he fought that way against garcia, he would get timed and KTFO..

    Nigga would get hit so hard hed be doing the twerk and shit.

    What is that about. When he has his opponents backing up, which he is good at, it gives him an advantage and he doesn't take advantage of it or am I missing something. it's more difficult to punch going backwards so you would think he would take advantage of it. He does it so frequently I began to think it was part of his game plan but that doesn't make sense. Is it lack of confidence or does he feel it is domination enough to back them up. I would love to hear a knowledgeable explanation, I feel like I'm missing something

    I thought Broner looked dried out at the weigh in. I wonder if he quickly grew past making 140 comfortably.

    Edit-not that he ever fought at 140 but when he moved from 135 you'd think he could have made 140 comfortably.
