    Supposed to, yes. Does it always happen, of course not. It's completely subjective, but I can't find any argument except money for this fight to be made. People who've cleaned out a division or done very well in it are granted the opportunity to face a champion immediately, very few two weight classes above theirs from what I can recall...

    Seems your justification for the fight is it'll make a lot of money, and both fighters are popular. I agree with both of those, I just don't think it's good enough reasons to make this title fight.. Especially when Broner plans on going back to 140 immediately after, not even wanting to defend the title once.

    If he were going to 140 to face a champion I'd have 0 complaints.. It's just the two weight class jump to relieve a champion of his title, when you have no intention of defending said title after.

    Broner gets KTFO by Matthysse, Peterson, and Garcia. Broner is a ****ing plodder; I can't imagine him neutralizing Garcia's left. This is the guy who got a gift decision against Ponce de Leon, and some of you guys are just eating up the hype. Broner is the most overrated fighter right now. The guy beats a chump Demarco, doesn't even look towards fighting Abril or Vazquez and he's automatically in the top 10 p4p. **** that. Broner gets his overrated ass knocked out at 140.

    Big man, you live in Michigan, to be frank (no pun intended :yep) how would you know? I'm a British fight fan, I know my sport in my own country, go over and post it in the British forum and see what you get back.

    Frank cannot / could not land the big fights for Ricky, Kevin Mitchell was the largest grossing fight he could deliver.

    He will get ****ing wrecked. A guy like Matthysse would absolutely destroy him.

    His new promoter secured Adrien Broner for Gavin Rees, Devon Alexander for Kell Brook, Amir Khan for Paul McCloskey, Devon Alexander for Lee Purdy, Sergio Martinez for Darren Barker and so on ................., One thinks he will do this and more for Burns!
