Yea.... I thought they could deal with the WBO or something... but I don't know shit about the behind the scenes of boxing.
Well, the fight is on... so I'm interested in knowing what Escobedo is getting.Comment

I think he will, he's gonna get a lot of dough and a loss won't set his career back because everyone knows Broner will have a significant size advantage. Win-win.Comment

This is true, but a fourth loss will probably mean the only big fights he could get will be gatekeeper fights on short notice for short money. If Escobedo wins the title, the sky is the limit as long as he can keep making 130.the problem is he will get that vacant shot, but it wont be on hbo and it wont be for any real money. i think thats why hes staying to see whats offered. its quite smart. i think team escobedo handled this situation very well. i wish more boxers would do this when their opponents dont make weight
I agree that it is smart to make sure you're getting their maximum offer before walking away, though. Escobedo was only going to get 180k with the penalty from Broner added. Id say he can make that and more if he wins the title.
However, looks like the fight is on.Comment
