What weight would this fight actually take place at? I highly doubt 140. There's just no way. I was kinda hoping Haymon would keep lining AB up against the top names to beat a lesson into him.

Weight wouldn't be an issue for AB if he stayed active in between bouts. It seems as though he uses camp to cut, which is a recipe for disaster. He has the talent. If he could take boxing a bit more seriously, he could be a lot better. Considering that a title and a bunch of money is on the line, I think he will make weight. Don't hold me to this though. LOL.

Back in the day I always thought Burns would beat Broner but him or his handlers or both didn't feel like he could. I think both guys are on equal footing as far as where their careers are right now. So, there shouldn't be any excuses for the loser of this match. The better fighter should be able to win.

That a long stint of inactivity for Broner

What happened to December. Maybe Broner will fight a tune-up in December.

Yea if Broner is trying to fight at 140 against Burns he should try to get a catchweight fight in December at 143-144
