    Broner vs Burns wouldn;t be close. Broner Wide UD, Burns will vacate before he has to face an elite 130 challenger.

    I applaud the wbo for this, he deserves his slot as his last 2 fights have been better than the champ in burns. De Leon and Litzau starch Evensen and Laryea...

    Good stuff wbo...

    If he runs from the elite at 130 then he will do nothing at the other weights around him. He should fight Broner and show what he's got win or lose.

    If he is forced to fight Broner - look out for his promoter to arrange a unification with a fighter weaker fighter than AB!

    Broner is the best contender out there at super-featherweight- but I'm sure Ricky would cause him a few problems and I could see this fight ending in a tight decision either way. I'd probably prefer Broner in it to be honest

    Broner isn't that good, the Litzau fight flattered him greatly. That said, I would pick him to win, but it'd be a bit closer than people would imagine methinks.
