    I think Bronco has given his all to the sport, and provided fans with some great entertainment. Up until very recently his only losses were to some of the best guys in his division. (Winky, Simms, Phillips) The only "black mark" on his record was the 3rd fight with Winky. I'm of the opinion that he could see the writing on the wall, and got himself DQed on purpose. He'll never be a top guy again, but I think he deserves one last good payday. I hope he gets it.

    The NABF is a good stepping stone title, winning it can usually get one in a WBC eliminator.

    IBF - International boxing Federation

    WBA - World boxing association

    WBC - World boxing council

    WBO - World boxing organization

    WBC - Continental America

    WBA - Continental America

    NABF - North American boxing federation

    USBA - United States boxing association


    This what it should look like. What you posters said about the NABF stands the same for USBA. If you can attain one of the two or both, then you are on your way for a title shot. That is how it use to be. I don't know if it is like that today.

    Karmazin will beat McKart. McKart had his fifteen minutes. I don't know what really happen to him. Maybe he lost focus. He use to be a 154 WBO champ and a hell of a fighter who trained to Toney and managed by Jackie Kallan if that is how you spell her last name. Karmazin is a very good fighter and I think he will do very well at MW.

    I agree with what you said about Bronco, including his DQ against Winky in the third fight. I'd love to see him win this fight and get a title shot or at least another good payday. Then he could have his "farewell" fight against a soft touch in his hometown of Monroe, Michigan like he's always talked about, and leave on a high note. I'd definitely be there for that one.

    I don't think McKart lost his focus, he just got old. Up until 2007 when he was 36, his only losses were to Wright, Verno Phillips, Travis Simms, Pavlik, and some guy in Bronco's eighth pro fight. Focused or not, once most boxers hit their mid thirties, they have slipped quite a bit from prime.

    What happened to McKart? That's simple. Winky Wright and Father Time. In his prime Winky Wright had his number. At middleweight he's just not big enough or strong enough to hang with the best, but he can no longer make 154.

    Both have seen their best, but "Made in Hell" should prevail
