    Ward is the bigger draw right now but Broner will overtake him cause after the Demarco fight, I think that he will move up to 140. That weight class will make or break him. If he continues his winning ways, Ward wont be able to touch in draw power.:bbb:bbb

    Broner is the bigger draw it would seem to me, his last fight drew very good numbers.

    Also I think Broner's style is more fan friendly plus add in his ability to move up in weight plus his s.hit talking he will be the next big thing.

    Broner is already the bigger draw and the gap is likely to increase if he remains undefeated.

    I think both will be big draws. Ward in the Miguel Cotto, classy warrior way. Broner in the Mayweather/spoiled brat brings a lot of haters way.

    As of now, thanks to the international exposure in the Super Six, Ward is probably better known throughout the boxing world. Broner is still pretty much a domestic product.

    Broner will likely do more PPV numbers, but a large portion of the audience will be paying and hoping he loses. But, if Broner learned anything from Mayweather, paying is all that matters.

    Cotto's actually been in exciting fights though. Ward's style will probably prevent him from becoming anything like a Cotto-level draw IMO.

    Good point. Cotto is my favorite active fighter and I am drawn to his humble personality and take all comers attitude, much of the same I see in Ward, another one of my favorites.

    Andre definitely needs to increase his excitement level to get on the Cotto level.

    Neither is an actual draw at this point. But Ward can sell at home, so he might have the edge here.

    Broner is going to be the bigger star. Ward is class and has proven a lot more though, dont understand the haters tbh.

    Broner did great numbers on HBO and sold a good amount of tickets in cincy

    That doesn't mean you're a draw. TV ratings and actually selling a fight where people have to shell out big bucks are two different things.

    Broner already is and he's only gonna get bigger with each fight. he's already one of the most talked about boxers.
