You don't need a local fan base, the two main stars that played very little in their rise~ however being on HBO benefited them greatly.

Originally posted by Light_Speed View PostPac benefited from the support of the filipinos and asian americans, you can't deny it. How come GB and TR keep putting on shows with mexican american fighters in the westcoast? Cause they're trying to sell tickets and increase the fighters popularity in that community. Lara and Rigondeaux don't get the same treatment though and they can't even get big fights against the stars in their own stable. They're getting screwed by their promoters, they should leave and build their own fanbase in Florida.
Lara and Rigondauex are failures if they can't make it in similar ways that is on them. Going from the major leagues to triple A does not really help them in the big picture.

Let's take Danny Garcia, he has fought in Philadelphia a few times but his Q rating there was not real high. If he goes back, he would probably do a lot better not because he got built in Philadelphia but because he got a huge win in front of a huge audience on HBO.
Did GBP screw Danny Garcia by not really building him in Philadelphia~

Originally posted by Light_Speed View PostAt least they gave him a big fight, Lara was not even mentioned as a possible opponent for Canelo and TR is not gonna let Rigondeaux fight Donaire. What's the point of being on HBO if you're fighting scrubs on an undercard? These dudes have P4P talent and are not treated as such.
It takes a long time to be an overnight success~
