I don't know why they keep putting almost all the good matchups on Showtime

PBC is not = Showtime however people who make PBC fights = people who make Showtime fights
So I really don't get it, PBC was getting criticized for the lack of real quality fights then comes 2017 they have all these good matchups and they put them on Showtime instead of PBC and the national channels.
What's the point? They don't even try to get their contracts renewed with all these national channels like NBC, CBS, ESPN, Spike, etc...?

I get what cha saying but now a days, cable providers be giving away Showtime and HBO for free.

Would be nice if this fight was on CBS tho with Trout/Hurd on the undercard

Along with Charles Martin :blessed:

based on boxrec only 2 cms are the difference between Mikey's and Broner's reach and they are the same height plus Mikey doesn't has to have a kind of power which KO Broer it's enough if he has enough pop to keep him honest so he doesn't get walked down. I'm almost 100% sure he has that much of power.

So having the same height and almost the same reach and Mikey having enough power to not get walked down, size could come in the play only if it turns into a physical, close quarter battle but that isn't really Broner's style, he is no Shawn Porter.

I think Mikey picks Broner apart and wins by UD.

Broner is a very good inside fighter....what do you mean? He always gets on the inside and uses his strength to hit you on the inside and push you backwards. He's a mid-range, inside fighter. He doesn't really fight on the outside unless he's trying to create distance to catch his breath.



Even against Maidana, he walked HIM down and fought on the inside vs him. Mikey aint gonna stop that.
