    Well keep in mind "It's Showtime" so Broner's numbers aren't going to be the same as his HBO #'s. It's going to take a couple fights to get boxing fans to subscribe to Showtime. It's going to happen by word of mouth because unfortunately Boxing is not that popular or commercialized.

    If people knew that Showtime's upcoming fights are Mayweather-Guerrero, Peterson-Matthysse, Lopez-Maidana/Lara-Angulo, Broner-Malignaggi, Mitchell-Banks II, Berto-Karrass/Thurman, they'd jump on showtime right away. But people don't know this, it's going to take time for people to catch up with the fact that Showtime is now working with one of the biggest promotional companies and as a result has better fights. Canelo doing 1.1Mill or Broner doing a little bit of homes too, doesn't mean they are not draws. It's just going to take some time to get more subscribers.
    Canelos not Broner. Broners already bigger than Canelo in the US and Paulies gonna really talk up this fight. I wouldnt be surprized if Showtime does an interview with both fighters during the PPV and one of them throws a chair at the other. Trout couldnt sell crack in a crack house. Broner vs Paulie will beat Canelos 1.1 mil.

      I think he will develop his own persona now that he is getting his popularity but with the same corny jokes

          I don't mind Broner's version of Floyd's style. He's a more offensive version of Floyd, but with that territory of being more offensive he also gets hit a lot more and a lot easier. Like Rees was actually schooling him in the first 3 rounds of their fight. That is not good at all. When he faces a bigger guy with the hand speed of Rees, and more power, he's going to look pretty bad. I think Malignaggi is going to have a better fight than people think. This fight is not a cherry pick at all. People need to stop thinking of Malignaggi vs Cano, Cano is bigger and his a different style than Broner. And you can't even get Malignaggi's losses against Cotto, Hatton, or Khan either, all of those guys are bigger and stronger than Broner.
          wouldve loved to see hatton vs broner

                He's not going to drop it. He's been like that for so long now he actually finds it hard to turn it off.

                  He does copy Floyd, though, and he is really bad at it. And now that you mention it he dresses like kind of a ***. Did I have a point to this post? No, no I didn't. Don't mind me.

                    It's not just Broner, the people behind him are clearly pushing the 'Next Mayweather' angle because it's a marketing strategy that works. You just have to look at how the Mayweather fanboys on NSB act towards Broner to see that it works. Floyd's on the way out, and certain players in boxing want to maintain that market once he's gone.
