    What?! Why?! Lee Selby is super small (though I suppose he's bigger than Manny Pacquiao like most lightweights are)... Weird ass fight!

    :lol: Selby just moved from Featherweight to Lightweight and now will fight Broner at Welterweight?
    Yeah, no way is this not a catchweight at above 140lbs.

    But why would he do that (move up to WW)? It makes no sense. Broner is not a champion, lost his last fight... They can fight at a catchweight.

    High risk, high reward?
    Broner would likely be Selby's biggest payday and a win would open many doors. Plus Broner hasn't really looked any good since 2015.

    Well, Broner will look good knocking Lee Selby out at welterweight. :smile: But I refuse to believe that Selby will agree to move up that high. I think the fight will be at super lightweight.

    Selby wins this for me, it's good/great legs Vs slow legs.
    Unless Selby starts trading (which he is too slick for) he dances to a UD all day.

    Dude's fat, unmotivated. Nothing to do with being from UK. Only a relentless brawler aka Warrington gives Selby trouble. This will be BJS Vs Lemieux all over again.

    Broner wins. Unless he doesn't throw again.

    This is basically Selby cashing out.

    Broner needs a W so they can put him in with another high profile opponent next to get spanked.
