If Lucas Brown is smart he will do what Charles Martin is doing and cash out.

    I mean lets be honest, Brown is not all that. Why take a risk fighting past prime Equendo for peanuts when you can set yourself up for retirement against Haye.

    I highly doubt Brown can beat anyone in the top 10.

    Wasn't Chagaev top 10?

    I'm not sold on him either, but he showed some intangibles against Chagaev that makes me think he's more dangerous than he's getting credit for.

    He will kill Oquendo, so he can make them $$$$ plus a big pay day later.

    If he destroys Oquendo he might boost his earnings for his next fight.

    I know he isn't, still, he's capable of upsetting Brown.

    Very few fighters in the heavyweight division are marketable, Haye happens to be one of them.
    If Joshua who is also marketable wasn't fighting Martin, I will say go for him.
    A fight against Haye guarantees Brown something similar to what Martin is getting.
    I mean if you're getting beat, why don't you get paid doing it.

    First Martin isn't cashing out, he fully believes he can win, and the last time I checked AJ hadn't beaten anyone with a pulse, so I'm not sure why Charles would have any reason to think he doesn't have a legit chance. After all these are two undefeated KO artists going up against one another, people tend to lose sight of that.

    Browne is fully capable of beating most fringe contenders at HW, he should milk it for as long as he can like Wilder, who I like, but let's be honest Duhaupas, Molina and Szpilka aren't exactly the cream of the crop.

    so it is haye, or fight his mandatory? haye's history of pulling out of fights might mean brown wastes valuable time to no effect. he is 36 i believe, he hasn't much time no matter whom he fights. i'd fight oquendo if i were him. winning that fight leads to one of the marketable guys in the wba tourney.

    Who besides Haye, Joshua, Povetkin, and Wladimir can Brown get a big payday against?

    He looks very vulnerable but they can surely come up with a couple easy matchups for him. Make a few hundred grand then step it up. Arreola?

    Haye would ktfo Brown.....don't fight him right away.

    fury, for one. i was under the impression he is obligated to take part in the wba tourney that includes oquendo, fury, klitschko, and i forget the other two.

    I really don't hold your opinion that highly. You've admitted in the past of predicting fights based on the guy you like, and this happens to be one of those cases.

    You picked Pac to beat Mayweather.:patsch
    ****, that was one of the easiest big profile fights to predict, yet you allowed your dislike of Mayweather to cloud your judgement.

    Joshua will starch Martin, the disparity in talent level is that wide between the two.
