Adrien Broner nets HBO it's largest ratings in several years

[KnockUTheFukOut]

fans think because they don't like someone...nobody else should like that person either...sorry but it doesn't work like that, in every sport you have players or teams you love to hate but yet you watch them every time they are on your TV either to root for them or against them

People love to throw the "HE TRIES TO BE LIKE MAYWEATHER" but to me Broner is a little more entertaining them Mayweather, his act seems more up to date compared to Mayweather who is a little more Mature and not as Ruthless as he was leading up to the fight with Oscar, that is still the greatest HBO 24/7 Ever!

But Broner is on his way to becoming a Superstar and a Draw...Like Him Or Not! Also having Waka Flocka Tweeting about the fight since he was going to walking him down to the Ring, that may have HELPED ratings as well

They are not cut from the same cloth and Ali is incapable of speech these days (sadly) so no. Anything Ali says comes from reps now and they are as trustworthy as Bob Arum.

But if Ali was never struck with his disease, the odds of Ali going against Floyd is far higher then him 'endorsing' Floyd.

Ali hated non Heavyweights, read Sugar Ray's book and what Ali said to him and about him

'stfu you just a god damn middleweight'. Ali probably feel sick to his stomach that Floyd a god damn midget is the cash cow instead of an elite heavyweight fighter like himself.

Actually Ali has been at a few of Floyds fights so u dont know what your talking about if you pay attention.

thats good for him

Futures looking pretty decent for Boxing I can see Canelo, JJCjr, Broner and possibly a couple of the heavyweight prospects (Wilder,Fury,Price) and maybe even Khan posting decent tv numbers in the next few years.

This is obvious..... This kid just has "it"

This guy is skilled and he's only 22

That's the way it is supposed to be, the fact that guys in their 30's and 40's have been carrying the sport almost entirely has been a sign of it's descent.

It's always been like that. Ali carried the sport into his 40s.

HBO hasn't done a number that large since the Vitali-Arreola i believe. Somebody correct me if i'm wrong.

In case you don't understand what a "3.4" TV rating is. That's 3.4 MILLION viewers.

Good guess but that's not whAt it means

Trashy fighter with trashy fans .....

The Kardashians get good ratings aswell.

This means nothing to me.

And you're a fan of boxing?
