    Will there ever be a fight as big as DE LA HOYA- MAYWEATHER again?

    What do you think???

    There are a bunch of rising US starts like Chad Dawson and Andre Berto. And guys from outside of the US that are very popular here, like John Duddy and Miguel Cotto.

    Do you think any of them will ever be as popular as De La Hoya, and do you think they could produce the hype that DLH and Mayweather can?

    In America, eventually, but it'll be awhile.

    Maybe a popular charismatic heavyweight will come along.

              do you mean in skill level, or just a fight that generates $$$$$$$ and a big crowd ?

                if it's skill wise there are a lot of prospect that are very good like berto and miranda but generating big cash i doubt it....in years to come

                  I was referring to money and hype.

                  Although Floyd is one of the most skilled fighters, ever.

                    not outside of the heavyweights in the foreseable future.

                    And if boxing continues in its slow decline, maybe never again.
