Chump Change. Broner will be broke and careerless in just a few short years even being protected. If he fights Mathysse, which he definitely wont, make that one year.

$50 a seat average doesn't seem too bad for Cincinnati

Or maybe he will kick some Matthysse a.ss and go on to fight Floyd in september 2015.

Why doesn't he fight there more often?

Broner has Maidana problems, Floyd will never fight him.

He probably should but it does seem like Broner is bigger than Cincy with the TV ratings he pulls so I can understand using him to headline bigger markets.

Me personally I would build Broner at Barclay's, I think he is more of a fit there than any of the guys they have been trying to make big from out of market.

That gate doesn't even cover Berto's 400k cut! How are they making any money over pricing these guys to beat obviously inferior opposition?

Always said rising stars should fight at home more often. It sells!

Peterson sells in DC, Guerrero in SJ, Ward in Oak, Crawford in Omaha, and even Alvarado sold well in Denver.
