you're wrong there. In the urban community, broner is just as, if not more popular as floyd was before dlh. A better comparison would be judah at his peak. Judah was, and still is a star in the black community. And because of social media and youtube, ab is probably more popular than floyd and judah were in the black community. I suspect that has a lo to do with judah being floated around as ab's next opponent should he beat paulie. Ab-judah would do very similar numbers that floyd-judah did.
This is a great surprise, good on Golden Boy for saving me some money this year.
I probably would have bought Broner-Maidana on PPV, it's a main event with some intrigue and the undercard looked good too. I would have liked to see how well Broner did in terms of PPV numbers too. But I'd much rather not have to pay for another card so soon after Pac-Man/Rios.
