Canelo will probably be the face of boxing in the future, guys like Broner, Ortiz, Chavez jr, and Khan can also attract crowds. Khan especially is very big in Britain.

After Floyd and Manny retire, who do YOU see as the faces of the sport???

All the guys you listed have a great shot at being the face of boxing. I seriously believe though that both Broner and Russell will end up being the face of American boxing for sure. I don't see those two as guys that will flame out.
It's hard to predict though because next year you could have Canelo or someone, and they could beat Manny or Floyd and instantly become a face(like Oscar did for them). Hell, if Bradley were to beat Manny in June he would become an American superstar, so it's hard to predict. You just let the chips fall and someone will take em.

Through promotion and network backing, Canelo, Chavez Jr, Bradley, Bute and Ward are already in place.
In terms of talent, and who couldemerge, I'd say Canelo, Bradley, Ward, Donaire, Russell Jr, possibly Broner (I'm not completely sold), Khan if he improves, Dawson if he can convincingly beat Hopkins, maybe Guerrero can make some noise, Dirrell if he can get it together, Gamboa, Rios will be exciting (though I expect him to eventually get his chin cracked), and whoever emerges from Ortiz/Berto.
