    Default Broner at 140? Who Would You Like To See Him Fight?

    Broner said he's willing to fight at 140 for a big fight. HELL, he might not have a choice because he came in his last fight weighting more the Floyd did for his light middle fight against Cotto. Lol. Anyways, Mattysee, Rois, Guzman, Peterson or Holt would be all good fights for Broner.
    What you think?

    I wouldn't mind seeing Walter M. punch holes through the spoon fed slacker, and I think he would.

    Dear God I hope so , that's the one. I don't think Broner is going to take a 'huge' risk anytime soon. But I'd pay to see that.

    As a fan of his potential/style and not his dufus persona, I'd like to see him stop at 135 as its one of the prestigious 8. Trouble is 135 is a little anaemic. Mitchell and Burns are busy and Marquez is not going to melt down. In a perfect world Oscar makes the Demarco fight taking a page out of the Bob Arum in house guide book. I do not see a Gamboa fight any time soon. It makes a shit load of money further down the road when those other two guys have left boxing. Who knows, it could happen at welter.

    At 140 I'd like to see him kick the shit out of Rios as an entrance.
    Marquez is obsessed with Manny with one foot starting to enter the door out.
    Bradley will stay put at 147 I think.
    He could also break in with Matthysse or Maidana.
    He'd probably get ridiculed if he fought Morales or Corley.

    Firstly Broner will be manoeuvred into a belt at 135. I too would love to see him fight Rios at 140. I know a lot of people are down on him becasue he's a tit but name two guys at world alphabet level with more potential than he has. Name one guy. So regardless of the fact that he's a tit I'm right behind him. I'd like to see Broner-Khan too. If Broner has a shit chin Khan would at least wobble him at some point before he got sparked.

    I would love to see Marquez - Broner at 140, I think if it happened within this year or maybe next Marquez would beat him, any later and Marquez is getting on a bit and Broner would be getting better. I think Marquez out of any fighter at 140 would have the best chance of beating him, he's just more skilled than Broner as of this momment in time. Would be a great fight though. Id love Marquez to beat Broner!!!

    Unless his ego gets in the way, Broner's team will start him cautiously at 140. Like this.
    Demarcus Corley
    Jessie Vargas
    Mike Alvarado
    He is the money marker and will be protected until they're sure. It would be stupid to throw him in with the big dogs right away.

    I would be quite happy if they matched him with Alvarado for a first fight at 140. Not the best fight for him at 140 but for an initial dip into the weight, that's a great match up.

    I still think he'll probably fight a bit at 135 before moving up anyway though.

    Agreed. You would think he would at least want to grab one of those trinkets at 135 just for historical purposes. Agree on Alvarado also as a good dip in the pool.

    Its all assuming he actually 'makes' weight. I just don't see him stopping at 135 and he's already shown that trinkets and titles are meaningless by just dumping in on the scale. He and Rios remind me alot of each other only way they meet is at 140+. With training approach and attitude they almost deserve each other.

    Right now I think its extremely premature to be crowning him the next great thing, especially as hes in new territory. Everyone breathe 1 2 3..I saw a Ponce Deleon touch him enough to deserve a nod and his nerve has yet to really be tested and for that matter his chin tapped. He needs to fight a live mutual body. If he actually trains and meets a solid 135 DeMarco would be a fun fun fight. Until hes proven he can beat that class I pick DeMarco..as well as Marquez in the short term via school lessons at 135-140. Alvarado has a frontal one dimensional and inviting style that would suit Broner well but is at least fresh, undefeated and equal weight.

    I still dodnt understand how he got annointed the next great thing...I to saw ponce beating him. I understand hbo catering to the big names but hell broner ain't a name yet and I'm pretty sure if you asked non boxing fans in his hometown they wouldn't know who the fuck he is. Then again the next great thing often doesn't work out, hell I remember espn or hbo telling me tha gamboa will be a megastar in a year, two years ago. His attitude or ego is going to get him, marquez beats him every day of the week, would love to see lucas get a shot at him. Boxing is fucked up lucas always comes to fight , professional yet you don't see him get catered to by hbo/showtime instead you see him get the shaft twice in hometown decisions. Before someone says broner is good for boxing and ill be watchin him to see him beat as many people will, not if there is another fight to watch on.
