Personality... Broner's personality and his and GBP's marketing... That is what it has and that is why it will sell. Broner will appeal to the casual viewers more than JMM or Bradley and will provoke more people to spend their $50 to watch him fight.
Bradley is Shane Mosley (not a knock on him or Shane because they are cool dudes.... this is in terms of predicting PPV success), who was never a successful A side despite having speed and power to spare and defeating Oscar. Example: Shane Mosley-David Estrada & Antonio Margarito-Kermit Cintron I: 225K; Marco Antonio Barrera-Robbie Peden & Shane Mosley-Jose Luis Cruz: 110K; also note the attendance to the fights after Oscar I, where he's the A-side.
JMM is the wildcard, if he's able to intrigue his US Mexican fanbase to support him after the Pacquiao KO, the PPV will have more success than I predict. Until then, without counting his fights involving Mayweather or Pacquiao, he's sold under 225K and that was against Marco Antonio Barrera; Diaz II and Casamyor sold under that and this was after 2 FOTY candidates against Pacquiao.
I would prefer to be wrong because JMM and Bradley are 2 stand up guys that will make for an excellent matchup. That said, I think Broner's going to sell just as much if not more than them.
