    Who would Broner have to beat to become a real star?

    Since his last fight with Marco pulled lower ratings than the other time Broner seriously needs some kind of boost to get more eyes on him.

    So Canelo seems to have Cotto lined up for him.
    Chavez Jr needs to beat Martinez.
    Who would Broner need to beat to get that extra boost?

        if he fights Gamboa and they do a build up show on HBO and 50 Cent promotes it (has over 8 million twitter followers) he can create a lot of new fans assuming he wins by KO of course

            if broner goes into 2014 with either :

            a.garcia, JMM, and maidana on his resume, or
            b.2 bums and beats manny;

            he will be a bonafide star.

                  Just move to 140, Burns, or Gamboa who is unproven at 130 let alone 135 wouldn't do a thing for him. It would take beating a string of credible opponents, Rios, Matthysse, Garcia and Peterson.
