Right now we have Mayweather,Calzaghe,Pacquiao,Cotto and Oscar.
Mayweather has retired and I don't think washed up Oscar should be up there anymore.
My 5 faces of Boxingscene:
Wladimir Klitschko - The Unified Heavyweight Champion of the world
Manny Pacquiao - #1 P4P fighter in boxing
Kelly Pavlik - Undisputed Middleweight Champion of the world
Miguel Cotto - Welterweight Champion of the world
Joe Calzaghe - Undisputed Champion of the world at 168 and 175
Margarito should replace Cotto and Pavlik should replace Mayweather. As much as i hate DLH right now he like somebody else said is the face of boxing and so belongs up there...
Looks like most of the posters on here agree that the 5 faces of boxingscene should be Wladimir Klitschko, Manny Pacquiao, Kelly Pavlik, Miguel Cotto and Joe Calzaghe.
To be fair your completely right the only other that comes close is David Haye for being undisputed cruiserweight champ, but those 5 are above him.
Wlad is the unified heavyweight champion of the world and one of the most recognizable faces in boxing.
He is far from one of the most recognizable faces in boxing, cut the shit.

I dont see how you can pick any other 5 guys to be honest. Same list I came up with.
Number 1 what???
He's the #1 heavyweight in the world you idiot.
Being known as the heavyweight champion of the world is the most prestigious honour in boxing.
Wlad can beat the shit outta any boxer on the planet.
His PPV sales were not that very good I must admit that myself, but better than Wladimir.
:lol1::lol1:
Wlad turned down a PPV a while back, he said he'd rather give his fights free to the people.
Mayweather is more popular than Wladimir. PPV sales show that and also the Google search shows more people know about PBF than Wladimir.
Mayweather's PPV sales, not including DLH and Hatton weren't very good and the majority of the people that do pay to watch him fight are hoping that he loses. So if everyone hates you, that makes you popular?
This is not about talent. The argument is about popularity.
Do you really think because Mayweather got more google searches than Wladimr that he was actually more popular?
Those are not PPV numbers, that's salary.
There was no such thing as PPV numbers in Ali's time.
they didn't do ppv back then.
there wasn't even cable yet i think. or if there was cable not many people had it.
they did closed circuit tv back then i believe. places would pay to show the fight and people pay to get in to see it.
:haha::haha:

A lot of people search mayweather in different countries. Again the only country that searches Wladimir in large amount is Germany. HAHAHAHAHA
The only place mayweather get searched more is Germany.
http://www.google.com/trends?q=Wladimir+Klitschko+%2C+Anderson+Silva&ctab=0&geo=all&date=all&sort=1
Same applies to Anderson Silva
Anna Kournikova was searched more that any other tennis player by far. You probably think that makes her the most talented player out there, right?
Right now we have Mayweather,Calzaghe,Pacquiao,Cotto and Oscar.
Mayweather has retired and I don't think washed up Oscar should be up there anymore.
