besides mayweather and pacuiao, who's the next big draw?

Keep in mind that the undercard featured John Duddy, Pawel Wolak and Maureen Shea, three big ticket sellers in the area. To say Miguel Cotto brought in 14K by himself is misleading. Ohh common he did it by himself, give the dude some credit. I didn't see a big crowd when those mofos were fighting and when Cotto fight came up the crowd whent nuts with their pr flags and all that shit, same thing against Clottey. He pretty much got over 18K against a guy casual fans had no ****ing idea who he was. Dude holds the MSG record for boxing attendence with over 20K. http://img706.imageshack.us/img706/5671/10cotto.jpg http://img7.imageshack.us/img7/471/7cotto.jpg http://img688.imageshack.us/img688/3161/8cotto.jpg I bet John Duddy, Pawel Wolak and Maureen Sheat got all those mofo people there to watch them train. Give me a break, what a joke:lol1:

Timothy Bradley has the potential to be a big draw. If he can beat Alexander, Maidana and Khan (after he makes his name known in the states) then he'll definitely be a big draw.

pavlik could have been big draw after he beat taylor but now with hopkins loss and inactivity (and ducking abraham) not so much...

Juanma, Valero and Pavlik!!!!

Cotto is #3 and IMO is not even debatable. I mean the dude got almost 14K to watch him fight Michael Freaking Jennings! Floyd got less than that against Marquez and many in boxing strugle to fill a ballroom.

Gamboa, Williams, and Alvarez. Williams fought Winky Wright in front of an empty crowd. I don't think you can call him a draw. Gamboa too, he hasn't even been a main event on a big card yet. Regionally, Kelly Pavlik is a big draw with the right opponent. So too is Adamek, if the fight is in NJ or Chicago.

Paul Williams, Sergio Martinez, Timothy Bradley, Andre Ward, Chad Dawson.

That was then... Even after two loses he still the 3rd biggest draw in boxing. Not many guys in the states can put over 18K butts in seats to watch a boxing match. Watch how his fight with Foreman is sold out this june and you will find out how big of a draw this guy really is.

cotto does have a huge fanbase in USA. I think david haye will be the next draw after he KTFO of ruiz

Cotto is the 3rd biggest draw in boxing RIGHT NOW. Besides Manny and Mayweather his ppv buys are next best and he has a huge fan base. In the future I think Lopez and Gamboa will be top two. http://cdn2.sbnation.com/imported_assets/113939/v14.jpg

if we're talking here in the states, i'd honestly have to say cotto still.

King Arthur is a big draw in Germany. Keyword Germany….

david haye after he beats ruiz.

King Arthur is a big draw in Germany.

i dont think its mosley. cotto and hatton are out. so who? you will never find the likes of floyd and manny pacquiao in one night fight,it takes years to find another superstar in boxing after pac & floyd.

Alvarez seems like he will unite the Mexican audience big time. Lopez and Gamboa are both already climbing the ranks, but they still got a hell of a long way before they are certified like Floyd and Manny. Khan will always be huge in Britain but I'm not sure his dull personality and what could potentially turn out to be boring fighting style might turn American audiences off him. Don't forget Floyd and Pacquiao have spent a whole decade building their names. You don't just become a star overnight in this PPV era.

Gamboa, Williams, and Alvarez.
