No, I didn't look into it like that. When I first read your reply, I thought you might be right until I started thinking about it. If Broners last opponent wasn't Mexican, I would have agreed with you.

I was just going with the ******s. truth is beyonce had no impact on Broner's fight. Most probably watched college hoops or the NBA 3 pt shootout/slam dunk contest before like me and my boys.

Beyonce's audience isn't exactly comparable to Broner's anyway. HBO has been talking about this fight for a while. Grantland on ESPN had a big article on Broner.

Kudos to Broner for making them tune in.

yup but whats so funny people here are so clouded that they will not even acknowledge this. Its not so serious people, of course he got helped to pull in those ratings.

1.4 million people didnt turn on the tv and change it to HBO only because they knew broner was fighting lol.

I for one could careless what helped him the fact is 1.4 million stayed and watched. Thats good for the sport.

broner will be a top ppv fighter within 2 years without a doubt. he got crazy good rating against a fighter no one knows in america and a pitiful under card. i dont see how people dont see it

If he continues to win and proves to be the real deal, he'll be bigger than Mayweather ever was, because his style is much more exciting in the ring.

without a doubt. his defense will never be what mayweathers is but his offense will be better when all is said and done. he may break records depending the opponent

broner is gonna take floyd's spot on HBO. floyd will go to showtime so that HBO can't force him to fight Broner. That's Al Haymon's plan. plus floyd is tired of HBO telling floyd to fight tough fights. floyd just wants easy paydays from now on.

Broner deserves all the credit. while I think he is too minstrel showish for my taste at times, I'm not the core demographic he and HBO are after.

He fights hard which is why people watch. And if his hair brushing and one liners bring in more people, more power to him. Just please stop rapping!!
