By Scott Gilfoid: Adrien Broner (24-0, 20 KO’s) first stop off while on his way to setting the boxing world on fire is a fight against WBC lightweight champion Antonio DeMarco (28-2-1, 21 KO’s) next month on November 17th at the Boardwalk Hall in Atlantic City, New Jersey. Broner, 23, will dominate DeMarco and take his strap.
From there Broner will move onto taking the other lightweight straps against Miguel Vazquez and Ricky Burns. Broner will likely have problems getting a fight with Burns, because once Broner destroys DeMarco, I expect Burns to be kept far, far away from Broner to where he’ll never get a fight with him. Right now, Broner’s name is being mentioned by Burn’s promoters about a possible unification match between them.
