Broner fight off ?

[Trecco bay]

After yesterday's weighing 133 , they said fight could go on if he came in 140 on fight day , he came in 143 obviously didn't even try to lose weight. Hbo are offering escobeto twice is purse to keep the show going

[TigerFan]

It looks like it's back on.

Broner vs. Escobedo Clash Appears To Be Back in Play - Boxing News

[hairymadness6]

If I were Escobedo I would walk away unless they seriously made it worth his while. He was a prohibitive underdog to begin with, but a Broner who doesn't even have to drain weight? It could be ugly.

[BarlowBox]

This is what I've gathered in the last ten minutes. Escobedo will receive a purse of over 400,000 dollars and Broner cannot weigh over 148 lbs. come fight time. Either way, Broner has refused to acknowledged any wrongdoing. I feel like a dupe for ever supporting this guy. Total douche bag.

The fight is happening. Who's gona win?

[beenKOed]

Broner, by KO. He's cocky, loud mouthed, rude and generally acts like an asshole but is good. He shouldn't be allowed to fight for a couple of years. I'm really disappointed in HBO, they don't care about boxing. If they cared about boxing, they would not allow this young man to get away with this behavior. What will he do next? He has disrespected boxing, boxing fans, HBO, the promoters, the sanctioning body and his opponent.
Let him go become a rapper, boxing can get along without him just fine!
HBO should have cancelled the entire show and kept the asshole in court for a few years, if possible.

[Rantcatrat]

Broner was a big-time favorite to begin with. Now, he will go into this fight with a 15-pound weight advantage. Seriously, Escobedo may get injured in this one.

[armin]

Escobedo shoulda stuck to his guns and walked away from this...except he probably wouldn't be on hbo again where as they would be lickin broners ass to put him back on in 5 months...and I don't even get it, not like broner has a huge following, he's decently talented but hasn't done shit yet....don't think hell turn out as great as he thinks either. If escobedo is going thru with it and is getting beat baddly after a few rounds he should just say fuck it and quit

[armin]

Also where is this shit stop before a commission says we can't sanction this shit I mean its bad enough fighters come in weighing ten and twenty pounds heavier fight night, but fuck now they don't even bother to weigh in at proper weight at all...

[Spicoli]

They'll throw enough money at it and let the bloated twat have his showcase. Escobedo has concrete in his feet and eats combos to begin with and now he's going to get hit by a weltereight ta boot. Boxing lacks principle and if I were him I'd stand on his own and tell Broner, more so HBO, to get bent. Canelo vs Lopez was bad enough but at least it was "made" in the daylight without the wallet and basic bribes "fines" to start flowing.

Nothin would be sweeter than escobedo knockin him the fuck out

Hes a con man. Escobedo sweated down to 130 for the 'big' show and sounds like Broner had zero intention to make it flim flam, bait and switch, whatever. It stinks and is bad for the sport. They just showed interviews and Broner looks at least two division up. It's 9:12...Lampley is already muted.

[hairymadness6]

Is it my imagination or did Broner look like he had a lot of acne? Perhaps tale tell signs that those tweets about twinkees was more than show?

Pretty good opening fight Thurman is getting the better of Lora.

PS. i've got the sound muted.

[Mars_ax]

Lora's plan seems to be to walk Thurman down, and block punches with his face.
