I remember my dad telling me Ali fights would lead empty streets and front page headlines...and this was in the UK. Leonard, Hearns, Hagler and Duran never had the same effect here but they were still bigger than the current state of boxing.

Floyd and Manny can and do make headlines and if they fought I'm sure it would be huge news. Sadly that ship may have sailed.
