The Balbo is merely a wide goatee and it is growing partway back the jawline.  Based on your new 'urge' to get yourself bearded, go ahead and grow just as much as you can to see what you have to work with.  The longer you let this experiment grow, the better you will be able to make the right decision as to the beard style you want to show for a while.
