Browne looked like shyt in his last fight on the undercard of Spence/Algeri, he gotta take a step up eventually to see what he got but I expect Top Dog to spark him

Marcus Browne vs. Williams eyed for March 18 at MSG - The Ring

Undefeated light heavyweight Marcus Browne is in training to face Thomas Williams Jr. in a compelling crossroads fight that is being eyed for March 18 at Madison Square Garden on the undercard of Gennady Golovkin’s middleweight championship with Danny Jacobs, RingTV.com has learned.

Gary Stark Sr., who trains Browne, is preparing Browne for the all-southpaw match-up with Williams. Browne, a 2012 U.S. Olympian, hasn’t received a date for that fight, other than the first quarter of 2017, Stark said. However, a source told RingTV.com that Browne-Williams will take place in March and that March 18 seems to be the preferred destination at this time, though it may not be on the HBO PPV telecast.

“That’s the opponent we’re supposed to fight,” Stark said in a phone interview of Williams. “This is a super big step-up. This kid can fight so we have to be so ready for this fight. He has to be mentally ready. With his skills, he can beat anybody. It’s just his mind. He has to be mentally rough for this fight. The last fight — we should have stopped that kid. We probably should have walked through that kid. I don’t know what was on his mind.”

Staten Island’s Browne (18-0, 13 knockouts) hasn’t fought since he won a controversial split decision against previously undefeated Radivoje Kalajdzic on April 16 at Barclays Center in Brooklyn in which both men tasted the canvas. Maryland’s Williams (20-2, 14 KOs) last fought against light heavyweight titleholder Adonis Stevenson on July 29 in an entertaining brawl. Though Williams was knocked out in the fourth round with a devastating left land, he had his moments. Thus, Williams, 29, represents a considerable leap in caliber of opposition for Browne, Stark acknowledged.

Stark said that Browne, 26, was going through a number of personal issues without elaborating back in April and that he may take Browne out of New York to prepare for the bout with Williams. Browne is currently back in the gym and is set to start sparring in another two weeks and will probably work with fellow undefeated light heavyweight Charles Foster (12-0, 7 KOs) of Connecticut, who is a southpaw, Stark said. “That hurt him,” Stark said of the personal issues plaguing Browne in April. “For this fight, he has to be clear of all problems so he can just focus on the fight. This fight will put him on the map.”

marcus is another prospect that I was watching closely. if he wins this I might have to add him to the official roster.

but I don't think he wins.:russ::manny:

@patscorpio is like wolverine because no matter how many times the people he stan loses he regenerates and comes back stronger

Turbo Fists aka Gary Russell Jr for example. After catching the Loma work, he came back and beat Jhonny Gonzalez

Yea I had been following him on the PBC cards, thought he looked decent enough as someone to pay attention to going forward but his last performance was awful and then he got gifted a decision.

He got them Coli scorecards....nikkas was talking bout JRock low key easily winning the fight AFTER the KD :mjlol:

:mjlol: for real.

I mean I know nikkas want they man's to win an everything, but damn be objective.

Fight was close and Jrock was landing some good right hand counters, but he was getting outboxed and losing the ring generalship battle. Not only that, but he got dropped by a jab.

I respect Bread's boxing eyes and brain, but dudes ego sometimes leaves me like :mindblown:

Dan Rafael chat wrap 12/30:

- A lot of work to do to make Brook vs. Khan. Still posturing at this point. To make the fight Brook would have to give up his title or be stripped.
- Povetkin is a fraud and a hoax. Hopefully he gets suspended for a long time.
- Really surprised Kavaliauskas hasn't been on TV yet. He is a monster and a great prospect.
- Rumors for GGG-Jacobs undercard: Chocolatito, Usyk, Claressa Shields, and Ryan Martin.
- Everyone thought Francisco Bojado was going to have a great career. He crapped out.
- Ranking of fights Canelo wants in May: 1. JCC, 2. BJS, 3. Lemieux.
- Best fight atmosphere in 2016? Brook vs. GGG at O2.
- Compared to 20 years ago, HBO's boxing budget is tens of millions dollars a year less.
- Gervonta Davis can definitely beat Pedraza.
- Froch vs. GGG in the summer? Definitely not happening.
- JMM vs. Broner? No interest.
- Wlad Klitschko would destroy Joe Frazier.
- There is an immediate rematch clause in Ward-Kovalev. If Ward avoids it, he will be faced with immediate litigation.
- David Haye wants easy fights for big money.
- Would love to see Jarell Miller vs. Parker.
- Spence is in a bad catch-22 with the IBF. He is their mandatory and if he takes a fight before his title shot, he risks losing his mandatory status due to the IBF's rules. Definitely not his fault he isn't fighting.
- Actually expected GGG vs. Jacobs tickets to be priced higher than they are.
- Francis Lafreniere vs. Renan St-Juste was one of the best fights of the year.
- Having Rigo on the Cotto vs. Kirkland card does not help it sell at all. Actually could hurt sales.
- Better career: Bute or Pascal? Pascal.
- Doesn't rip Stiverne for his failed tests in the same way as Povetkin, because they were different types of positive tests. Stiverne had an over the counter energy drink that he drank in front of the tester, then failed.
- The idea of Gatti vs. Provodnikov makes his head explode.
- Fights he most wants in 2017? GGG-Canelo, Crawford-Pacquiao, Wilder vs. Joshua-Klitschko winner, Kovalev-Stevenson, Valdez vs. Frampton-Santa Cruz winner, and Chocolatito-Inoue.
- Salido vs. Lomachenko 2? The fight does not appear to be happening. The two sides are not close at all.
- Canelo and JCC are negotiating now. We should know by late next week if the fight will happen or not. Weight is a big issue.
- Biggest crybaby in boxing? Cotto and it isn't close.
- On Lampley having Chocolatito 5th on his PFP rankings? He is entitled to be wrong.
- Vargas vs. Berchelt should be an excellent fight.
- Sure Lomachenko vs. Gamboa is possible, but at this point Gamboa is basically a part time fighter. Who really cares about that fight.
- GRJ has incredible talent and so far his career has been a waste.
- Lomachenko vs. Mosley at 135? Mosley was a monster at 135...so Mosley.
- Errol Spence should become #1 at 147 and reign for a few years.
- ODH vs. Winky Wright at 154? Winky.
- Porter vs. Berto? Like the fight. Would lean to Porter winning.
- Why did GGG duck Ward? He didn't.
- Bradley says he would like to fight again in first quarter 2017.
- Shakur Stevenson would like to debut in February.
- If he could interview one person in boxing history? Jack Johnson.
- The Murata vs. Sandoval fight was an absolute terrible stoppage.
- Cota is solid and then he may face Vanes in a final eliminator for the WBC title.
- HBO and Showtime are currently bidding on who will show Joshua vs. Klitschko.
- His favorite story of the year to write is his year end top prospects.
