EO could have posted a believable personal best of eclipsing Gil’s 14 wanks a day tally.

Standard sunday that. I once edged myself for 3 weeks straight and had to eventually release into a wheelbarrow. Then I hit the weights and went for a run.

The way you worded that makes it sound like 14 wanks in a day is standard for me. No I must admit it was the exception not the rule. I used to be a lot more virile than I am now :lol:

He might do great at 135 but he'll have to make low money
for 3-4 fights to prove his legitimacy.
Right now he's a little below Journeyman.
Sacrifices = Come back = money
In that order.

He's not below Journeyman at all. He's not even a journeyman. He's a fringe contender.

He'll look like sh*t at 135 if he actually returns there. Might lose his first fight back there even if they try to match him soft.

He hasn't scored a convincing win since 2016, so it's pretty doubtful that he'd destroy any division.

If he goes back to Lightweight it ain't just doubtful. I'll go on and say it's pretty much straight up impossible.

It'll probably look like Oscar's bright idea to go back to Welterweight. He'll be flat as f*ck and he'll lose in lopsided fashion against any kinda noteworthy opponent.

Not to mention he'd get dusted by Lopez, loma, Haney, davis and likely Garcia on his best day.

Yep, and his best days are over.

Hell Berchelt could come up to 135 to meet him, and he'd kick his ass.

Gary Russell probably could for that matter.

Maidana should come outta retirement and finish this guy once and for all.

I'd love that :lol:

I figure Maidana has been living it up a little too much to be particularly effective anymore, but I always loved watching him fight.

He was my favorite. I got into the sport around 2008-09, and his fight with Khan in 2010 is still my favorite I’ve ever watched live.

Yeah that was amazing. I thought it was over when he got hurt so bad with a body shot in the first round that he was writhing around on the ground in pain. For him to have risen, and made it the fight it was is remarkable.

Almost always when you see somebody hurt that badly from a body shot it's over, but he made it through, and gave Amir Khan all he could handle.

Broner: I'm planning to fight three times this year at 140!

Season 2 of the Last Stand Podcast with Brian Custer kicks off with the former four-division champion, Adrien "The Problem" Broner talking about how he dropped nearly 40 pounds, stopped drinking and is fighting depression. Broner vows to become a champion again by the end of the year. [Broner hasn't fought since his January 2019 loss to Manny Pacquiao and has gone through some dark days since then. The good news is he is getting his life back together and reports are that he is rounding into shaoe in the gym]. Here is what Broner had to say to Brian Custer:

On his February 13th scheduled return and planned opponent Pedro Campa dropping out:

"I don’t think it’s about the opponent for Adrien Broner. The fans, even the ones who dislike me, they just want Adrien Broner to go in there and be Adrien Broner. You know be in shape and get back to being the old AB, I think that’s what I’m coming back around too and February 13th everybody will see."

On fighting depression:

"It was bad, when you wake up, you don’t eat, first of all you barely sleep and then you wake up and the first thing you do is take a drink, and from that drink it just leads to another one, and then another one, you look up and it’s 10:30 at night again, and it’s time to go to the club and then you spend 10, 15, 20 thousand. And then you wake back up and it’s the same thing. It’s just depressing and a hard cycle to stop but I did it."

On the lightweight division:

"Tank [Gervonta Davis] is the best fighter in that division, the strongest fighter in that division and one of the smartest fighters too. When people see Tank fight they don’t see all the skills he possess and everything he’s got, and I’m really on the side of him in the gym and I see it."

On his own future:

"I’m going to try and fight three times this year at 140… I think you’ll definitely see me in a pay-per-view fight this year and after this fight people are going to know that twin is back! The way I’m feeling and the way I’m looking right now, sparring probably my next fight I’ll be world champion again."

If the winner of Taylor-Ramirez makes the jump to 147lbs and vacates all four titles, Broner could be carefully manoeuvred to gaining a shot at one of the vacated belts against one of the weaker world-rated fighters campaigning at 140lbs.

Yes ! This might be a possible scenario.
