    Who is HBO's next darling. Oscars done, Floyds retired, Cotto and Pavlik both lost. If Pacquaio retired today, who do you think HBO would deem its next big star and pour all of their advertising money into????? Berto? Arreola? Juanma Lopez????

    Berto's aparently gonna fight Cotto, so he's through... Realistacly Arreola's a Ko waiting to happen so that leaves Juanma who is a very good pick Imo

    James Kirkland, IMO.

    They have hyped that guy a bit...and damn is he entertaining. If he can beat Julio, expect a new superstar.

    And Juan Manuel Lopez, easily. That guy...phew...the skill he has and to be a prospect still...unbelievable.

    Great point. HBO made it a point to show Kirkland in the stands of Mosley-Margo fight.

    Pacman won't retire, so he will continue being HBO's star.

    Miguel Cotto will comeback and will also be there.
