You could definitely be right. I think the UK PPV model is built for sustainable purposes and the US is about maximizing revenue.
So slightly different. GGG is also shown in almost every country.
Very hard. But I definitely feel the casual boxing fan know more about AJ.
You think? I think Canelo's name is more recognizable(worldwide), I think the mayweather helped him in the states,Khan in the UK, Canelo is definitely now more INfamous due to the failed tests thou.
I agree somehow but I think is subjective, his fights have cheaper tickets and ppv price is lower. I think if Joshua fights wilder but Canelo fights GGG, the Canelo fight will be watched by more people, and dont sleep on GGG, you never know,he might be next in terms(loma too).Canelo is been longer, so joshua might catch to him, but that is nothing more than the way boxing and life is.

I think AJ is a bigger draw, he's more popular. However, Canelo's fights are generating more revenue .
For how long though?

I personally think it’s AJ, the dude is selling out arenas in minutes.
So who is it? AJ or Canelo?
Canelo ,hands down, the instagram followers dont mean much as terms of making money. Ask around, not only in the UK but the world if they know who Canelo is or AJ, Canelo got popular since he fought May and Khan, PPV's for canelo make more money and you must remember about the crossover, most fighters in the world want to come to the U.S since that where the money and fame comes from(more of it). I say this being a fan of neither.
Canelo but it could change.
Joshua is probably more beloved in his country but wouldn't do as many PPV's in America but Joshua I think would sell out US venues (due to travelling Brits) but would Canelo take 20k fans from Mexico and America to England? I doubt it but he could possibly sell a venue like 02 on his own but not a stadium.
Maybe Joshua at the gate, Canelo at the PPV right now. Globally? Maybe Joshua. It's been over 20 years since there's been a charismatic Heavyweight champion and probably even 40 years since the Heavyweight champion has been charismatic AND beloved. If he beats Parker and Wilder he'll be bigger than Canelo could ever be especially now in light of Canelo being exposed as a dirty cheater.
Yeah but do you really think Canelo’s drawing power will really be that effected?
Fans have a way of justifying anything that suits their personal agenda so I don’t believe Canelo will suffer any true or meaningful backlash from his scandal at the box office.
Canelo still for me.
Imagine how many PPVs he would sell at $30?
Feel like Joshua will overtake him at some stage though if he keeps winning. He's a big muscly HW and boxing fans are betas who love to live vicariously through their heros.
Yeah well MOST boxing fans are betas, me?
I’M ALPHA AS F$CK!!!
Lol

This debate has been done to death. Canelo is the biggest in the US. AJ is the biggest in the world. Depends on how you define it.
Well then your opinion would seem to be AJ also since you said world wide.
I’m not taking who makes more money, I’m taking who puts the most asses in seats
The best way is to compare their own markets.Mexico for Canelo, Uk for Joshua.Canelo had the massive advantage in facing Mayweather and loads of Mexican-American Patrotic Fanatics
Not sure why that's the best way to compare. Canelo is clearly more known is the US but AJ has twice the number of instagram followers as Canelo so is clearly more popular on a worldwide basis.
