      Escobedo is a legit fighter, if that is the plan fine I have no real issue with who he fights inbetween. I am fine with it on HBO as they are trying to build Broner, so having him on and looking good is worth it as that will draw more fans than looking average against some guy people won't recognize anyways~
      Yea they tried building Berto too by giving him $1 mil for 49 seconds against Hernandez

      Then once he fights what wasnt even suppose to be a threat, he loses

          Yea they were trying to build Berto, and you know what they got a great fight~ then they got another big fight based off the guy he lost to fighting a megastar~ now another network thought enough of both guys to pay big money for a rematch

          Don't focus on the trees focus on the forrest~

            From Broner to Duran, that's quite the leap.

                mebbe u should focus on the word "potential" instead of the word star. hes not a star yet, but he very well could be in the future and thats what hbo is banking on whether rightly or wrongly.

                    HBO does have a pretty good track record when it comes to building stars~ no they don't hit everytime but anybody who reaches the top got there through HBO

                      Yea by accident.

                      Pay for results, not potential. simple as that
