    but

    Escobedo made it so why deny him a chance at winning a title because of Broner's lack of professionalism?

    money not as much more than a title shot that he's waited a long time for

      why wouldnt u? i think escobedo and his team did really weill for themselves in this situation, not only do they get extra money, but now they will fight a broner who must make a 140 noon weigh in, further compromising his ability to fight 100% and he still gets his shot at the title? they took lemons and instead of making lemonade, they turned them into a lemon tree.

          Broner lives a baller type lifestyle, he needs this payday even though its only gonna be $240000 after the 20% fine, actually it's gonna be way less than that after manager's and trainer's get thier cut.

            Can't he still get that same title shot against someone who will actually make weight after its vacant???

                I've said it before, I don't think this guy will make it far cause I don't think he takes care of himself in between fights. I think he smokes, drinks, eats fast food, etc...

                  Not exactly for this date..... Or on HBO but at a later date even though a whole training camp would be down the drain and a prime tv slot..... I just think it would better his chances of actually winning the title.....

                    Yeah they did the best they could by their fighter..... But my line of thinking is basically in my posts to E.... Feel free to respond

                      Look from what I've seen on film Esco is a good little fighter, but lets face it he has NO CHANCE to win, he moved down to 130 for a reason and this aint one of em, he will be in with a full fledged lightweight, possibly even a welter tomorrow night, Broner toys and KO's him rather easily imo...
