        Hopefully Vasquez vs. Broner happens before Broner jumps up to 140, if not people are gonna call it a duck and rightfully so.
        Devon Alexander vs Randell Bailey was on Showtime, Kell Brook vs Devon Alexander will be on Showtime! It is a strong Possibility that Dawson next match will be on Showtime as well

        If the Vazquez vs Gesta fight was a better fight then yeah I think HBO would gladly accept the fight just like they would have when Vazquez was offered $350K to fight Broner before the Gesta fight! You can accuse somebody of ducking when you turned down a Offer to fight that fighter previously (and yes he did turn down $350K according to GBP Match Maker Eddie Gomez)

          Vazquez was the only champion that stepped up and said "I want to fight Adrien Broner" when Burns turned the fight down a couple weeks ago. heres the link.

          IBF lightweight champion Miguel Vazquez (33-3, 13KOs) has a single Christmas wish - to fight WBC champion Adrien Broner (25-0, 21KOs) on February 16th at the Boardwalk Hall in Atlantic City. Golden Boy Promotions is trying to get Broner in the ring with WBO champion Ricky Burns. There are problems in the negotiations, with the Scottish fighter requesting a lot of money to make the match happen in the United States.

            I stopped at page 8. And all I've seen for the most part is a gang of folks b1tchin bout Broner taking a stay busy fight. Since when as "Boxing" fans have we been critical of a young fighter taking a stay busy fight because a creditable opponent cannot be secured?

            Since I've seen a gang of b1tchin bout Broner fighting Rees(and nobody giving Rees his props for taking a major step up in comp). I honestly ask.............Who should Broner be fighting in Feb????????

              Rees who???? The guy has never been seen on any major network and I bet his own family doesn't know who he is. If Broner wants to become a marquee fighter, he needs to go to 140 where he will win some, lose some, but make a name there.

                  Never been on a major network? Are you kidding me? Sky sports are backing Rees and have done since 2010.

                    Eddie Hearn has delivered the goods once again, Rees wanted a champion and he gets the number 1 guy in the weight class.
