Broner said via ESPN “I’ll tell you one thing; Make a rematch. I don’t need a warm-up fight. I want a rematch.”
Broner needs to wake up and forget about fighting at welterweight, he barely beat feather fisted Malignaggi, he needs to step down to 140. He simply does not have the tools to be a force at 147 at this moment in time. Mayweather gradually worked his way up through the weight divisions as he matured, Broner simply jumped from lightweight to welterweight, skipping light welterweight believing he was untouchable. Now that that bubble has been well and truly burst, he needs to sit down with his team and think about what is best to get his boxing career back on track. An immediate rematch with Maidana would be a bad move, not that Maidana would even take it as there was no rematch clause in the contract. Maidana can sit back and demand big money if they desperately want a rematch and rightfully so.
