By Scott Gilfoid: WBC lightweight champion Adrien Broner’s trainer Mike Stafford thinks WBO lightweight champion Ricky Burns made the right decision in turning down a fight against Broner because he feels that Burns would have lost and he knows he would have lost. Stafford thinks Burns understands his limitations and doesn’t want the Broner fight.
Stafford said to Sports Illustrated “I was disappointed we didn’t get the Burns fight because the media and the fans wanted it. I was happy for Ricky because Ricky was smart enough to know that he couldn’t beat Adrien, and his team protected his business. Other than that, we have to move on.”
By Stevie Ocallaghan: Adrien “The Problem” Broner. After any fight regarding somebody in his weight class his name gets dragged up about he would smash whoever the other fighter might be.
By Scott Gilfoid: WBO lightweight champion Ricky Burns’ promoter Eddie Hearn is starting early with the excuses for why he won’t be trying to match Burns with WBC lightweight champion Adrien Broner for September, saying that Broner is busy with a fighting WBA welterweight champion Paulie Malignaggi.
by Bob Smith: In scanning the boxing matches coming up next month, I will venture to make predictions of three KO victories. Will I be right? Only time will tell. For the (very recent) record, Saul “Canelo” Alvarez did better than I anticipated he would, though I had him losing a narrow decision; I also thought that Guerrero would have some more success in pressuring Floyd, though I did anticipate Floyd Mayweather Jr would win by unanimous decision.

By Duke Pahulu: The Ring just posted their latest P4P list. The top three of Mayweather, Ward and Marquez are solid picks. I have a problem with the rest of the list. I thought the pound for pound list was created to put a spotlight to the divisions below heavyweight.
By Allan Fox: WBA welterweight champion Paulie Malignaggi (32-4, 7 KO’s) sees his fight next month against Adrien Broner (26-0, 22 KO’s) on June 22nd as being one of the easiest fights of his career when they meet up at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York. 
By Scott Gilfoid: WBO lightweight champion Ricky Burns had had at least two chances to fight WBC lightweight champion Adrien Broner and both times he’s chosen not to take the fight with him. Burns’ trainer Billy Nelson says he’s hoping that Broner will move back down in weight to fight Burns in the near future, although he says Burns would move up to 140 to fight him if the opportunity presented itself to him. 
By Allan Fox: WBC lightweight champion Adrien Broner (26-0, 22 KO’s) patterns himself after his hero/friend Floyd Mayweather Jr. Indeed, some fans see the 23-year-old Broner as a slightly smaller, less talented copy of Mayweather, and it’s hard to argue with that perception. 
By Mohamed Horomtallah: No, Floyd Mayweather Jr is not fighting Adrien Broner. At least not that I know of but he might end up knocking him out just the same. Broner is a young and very talented fighter but hanging out with Mayweather can jeopardize his career.
