Broner definitely had way more support than Bradley when they fought Pacquiao. Bradley is better than Broner outside the ring, way more discipline and a great role models for black kids. And fought Pacquiao with heart and determination.

Broner isn't supported in the black community
He has the Floyd effect so it just seems like he's getting support, when really it's a mix and that mix is mostly made of haters. It's been proven time and time again you receive more attention for being negative if you're a black fighter than you do if you try to go to positive role model route. Blacks largely don't consume boxing on the level that Latino's do, so of course the guy that generates headlines will get a following before the good guy's.

Broner appeals to the WorldStarHipHop crowd, and that has a significant and pretty vocal web presence. I doubt a guy like Bradley even knows that exists. It might seem like Bradley doesn’t have a black following, but I’m sure he has just as many fans - just not the kind that stick out like Broner’s.
