    he is going to duck and dive the best in his weight class and/or wait until they are past their prime.

    Mentions that he would maybe move up to 140 or 147, specifically asked who he wants next and he doesn't mention Ricky Burns.

    It be nice if both men called for the fight really. Broner did mention Burns last week after the fight in dressing room interview thought TBF to him..

    One of many Yanks mate they don't like it over here they know it's entering the lions den and also there out of there element.

    I'd like to see Ricky go over there, Ricky deserves a U.S fight in one of the major venues.

    Who was the one who moved up when Broner was his mandatory?

    Broner mentioned him at least twice last week, and 'our fair shores'? Our shores are more corrupt than there's. At least over there you can get a hold of some credible solid judges.

    Sick of people sucking Broner's dick on these threads now. Yes he's good, we get it. We have to hear him and nobhead family tell us every 5 seconds they're interviewed.

    Until he and Ricky Burns agree to fight then I seriously don't give a ******'s scrotum about him. He's an annoying little *****.

    a ring is a ring though mate regardless where it is.

    some of the Yanks I speak to online think its the bee all and end all that we must go to America to prove ourselves.

    Broner is a Haymon and GBP fighter and that = a HBO fighter, Burns would be treated simply as an opponent and he deserves more respect than that.

    people (mainly Floyd fans who are looking for a replacement) think that Broner is this superstar. That is bollocks as well, ticket sales for the Escobedo fight in his hometown of Cincinnati were shockingly poor, so in his next fight they have him headlining against a Mexican in Atlantic City - this dude isn't a draw that the hype machine that people make him out to be.

    He would earn the same money, maybe slightly more and have HBO backing, if he came to the UK that way he actually gets to fight in front of a passionate full house.

    Superstar my arse. Second coming of Floyd my ****ing rectum!

    I thought this thread was going to be about domestic abuse.

    Tell Kotelnik, Strum and Matthysse and plenty others about credible solid American judges.

    If you have a good promoter, which he does, then you can get plenty of excellent judges, especially in Vegas where Broner has mentioned.

    It doesn't matter where they fight, Burns ain't winning

    Typical British forum rating burns better than he is because he's a nice guy

    Be realistic

    You've got to be realistic, Burns would be the opponent if he went over there.

    Pretty much every non-Haymon fighter is the opponent, look at Golden Girl basically **** blocking Guerrero's request for an independent drug testing regime in favour of Berto and Haymon's preferred USADA.

    Any news on Ricky's next opponent btw?
