Couldn't run with the quoted. Apparently 10356 characters too much . Hey thanks Alpha. You put in the work too. But seems like the ball keeps moving . I mean Linares was Mikeys mandatory #1 and for whatever it's worth he was Rings belt champion.

Honestly Broner went up because he's a fat slacker who has yet to win a major fight. Sure he's stubborn, works inside nice and takes a decent punch but he dropped trinkets on the scales and I cannot see him taking that hiding off of Maidaina, shrinking back down and stepping up to win over class like Linares. Lacking a sturdy chin as opposed to lacking dedication, work ethic and eating right hands like potato chips are two different things.

On p4p, again it's all subjective. I considered Linares one of the more well rounded and seasoned boxers going in the sport. Also now Zlaticanin ranked higher as well as Broner and Mikey ? I don't think Linares fails to do anything Zlaticanin had pulled off leading to him being crushed by Mikey. And from what I remember Linares was set to meet the mandatory but fractured a hand. Branded champ in recess, Z picks up vacant but Linares made the "Diamond" champ. More fees for the W.e B.e C.ollecting.
