    Since Adrien is the talk of ESB right now, I'll add another...
    In your opinion which Fight/Fighter will demand HBO to back Broner & TBA with a PPV treatment?

    Probably Marquez. Everyone else around 135-140 is not really a PPV attraction yet either.

    Broner v Gamboa is a fight with guarenteed fireworks, but I dont know if its big enough yet. Yeah Broner Marquez could definitely get the treatment but it would be at 140 and by the time Broner gets there Marquez may have retired

    Gamboa could potentially be ppv but i doubt it. As of right now it's too early for PPV unless its with pacquiao, floyd or cotto.

    Rios??
    I say a Rios/Broner fight could possibly garner PPV talk.
    (They would at least have a lunch or 2 about it)

    + w/the inter promotion involved... Any takers?

    JMM would be the only name big enough to get a HBO PPV with Broner at the moment.. And like Prince said it would most likely need the 24/7 treatment to build up interest. Gamboa would be a great fight but neither of them have a big enough name to headline a PPV. Nobody else around his weight has a chance to headline a PPV in my opinion.

    They both need to show what they can do in the higher weight class against decent/good opposition before I'd pay for that.

    That would be a good move (Exposure), But when have the networks & promoters done logical moves in this sport.

    HBO will prob never place Adrien on a card he ain't the headliner in.

    first of all that fight would need Bob Arum and Al Haymond to agree you think that is happening anytime soon? And that is not a PPV fight

    Marquez. Maybe Rios but it's tougher sell when you got two guys who have never been PPV headliners unless of course Rios lands on a PPV beforehand.
