    Broner came in 144 during his last fight. Only 22 and will naturally get bigger over time. He's obviously a Floyd wannabe in every single way from boxing style to whoring for the camera. I say make the catch weight 145 or 144. Give the fans the next best mega fight.

    No ****.

    Broner's a bum.

    Already lost to people no where near the levels of guys he is 'calling out'

    Why would Pac waste time with bums when theres real challenges out there for him?

    Stupid idea.

    Crap fight... Broner can''t even brush his own hair yet, let alone being ready for someone like Pac.

    Whats your opinion on Dib and Gesta calling out Broner?

    Dib called him out but Broner will not take the fight.
    Gesta called him out but Broner will not take the fight.

    Unrelated to that, I don't have a problem with Pac not taking on Broner as no criteria to make a fight in the current boxing world are met.

    In the ring- Broner hasn't done anything higher than 130/133
    Financial- Broner is yet to headline a PPV
    Promotional- GB vs TR, hmmm?

    Broner needs to pay his dues.
    His time just won't come in the Mayweather/PAC era.

    Dib is a featherweight who didn't really call out Broner cause he wants the fight at 130 which he and everyone knows Broner cannot make anymore.

    Gesta is just another C fighter that would do nothing but earn Broner criticism for fighting. Escobedo and Litzau are levels above him, Broner would get crucified by the haters for taking that fight. He needs a step up in competition next, a step backwards vs Gesta is not acceptable.

    why do people think just because you rehydrate to a certain weight the day of the fight, that the weight would be a good place for you to fight?

    Because of Pacquaio, who people don't recognise as a one off.

    Imagine JCC Jr fighting cruisers. :patsch

    What do you have to do other than lose your previous fight to earn a shot at PAC? How did clottey, Mosley, margarito and Bradley do to "earn" their shot? Oh ya, sign with uncle bob and get paid to lay down.

    Broner can't be foolish in the choices that he'll make. He needs somebody to do it for him. I was absolutely impressed with his ability and power but it was a SFW fighting a LWW so... Adrien is a tremendous combo puncher and a flashy one too. He should be calling out the other upcomers and former titlists to eliminate them at LW or at LWW - Bam bam Rios, M. Katsidis, Kendall Holt, maybe even a titlist like DeMarco. Broner doesn't know the name of the Game.
