When Pacquiao and Mayweather retire, who will be the face of boxing?

Andre Ward, Andre Dirrell, Gary Russell Jr, Korovob, Danny Jacobs, Frankie Gomez, Jose Benavidez, Guillermo Rigondeaux, Gennady Golovkin etc

money may ! face of boxin

when those two retire, there will be some fighters that 'might' emerge as the new faces of the sport...there are some talented, marketable boxers that were mentioned here...guys such as Alexander, Ward, Khan, Alvarez etc... however, i see a slight lull in the sport and i think the next big 'thing' might not be someone that's on the radar yet Guys like Devon, Ward, Williams, Berto, etc. will never be stars because they don't have that star quality and they don't have a personality. CP3 wants to play for the Lakers? :nonono:

everyone always says that boxing is done after such and such person retires... well after de la hoya. you see that pacquiao and mayweather are up there. after them there will ALWAYS be somebody else.

Amir Khan, Canelo, Benavidez Jr., Gomez, etc.

Boxing is like the economy. When talented fighters come up the economy is on the rise, once they retire the economy is on the recession until someone else shows up. im going to assume the newest boxing star will be unknown as of yet.

Devon Alexander,Amir Khan, Saul Alvarez, Andre Ward, or Frankie Gomez.

Probably Bradley or Allexander. Boxing won't die when either of these guys retire. They will just find somebody else to market. Exactly problem is alot of are not blessed with foreseeing the future, the winner of the SuperSix and the winner b/t Alexander/Bradley/Khan will definately carry the sport. I can see Yuriorkis Gamboa making airwaves b/c of his style and level of action.

Young Thomas Hearns.. I wouldn't go that far. The kid has enormous potential.

Probably guys we're not that familiar with. It's always those we don't see coming. They pop out of nowhere.

New blood will take over. Alexander or Bradley...

it's just like any other sport when there is a lapse between rising stars. there will always be someone to take over but won't be as great as it seemed during the previous rise of power especially how astonishing pac and mayweather were. just like jordan to kobe to lebron. jordan is probably the most recognized and best player in NBA history. it isn't what it was in the 90s but it still lives on through kobe and lebron. if nonito moves forward he'll be pacquiaos predecessor but he won't get to welter i think juanma will eventually move upto 135-140 and be a huge part of the boxing equation. abradley or alexander are definitely up there once pac and floyd leave.

Probably Bradley or Allexander. Boxing won't die when either of these guys retire. They will just find somebody else to market.

Who knows. When it was Tyson and DLH in 90's and early 2000's, few if anyone would have predicated that Pacquaio and Mayweather would rise to such prominence.
