    back in their day Joe Louis and Ray Robinson where real popular.. are you basing this off of now or all time? Of course an average Joe wont know who they are because they didn't live through that era or read and watch boxing history.

      those 3 are who the guys on the street now would know.

      dempsey was the tyson/ali of his day but no one remembers him anymore.

      i think leonard in the 80's match oscar in the 90's in terms of popularity too.

          maybe not the young ones.

          but if you're old enough to see the '92 olympics and his commercials after barcelona you would.

          remember when boxers had tv commercials?!?!!?

          i hope our sport doesn't die.......

              add louis and that's the top 4 all time.

              heavyweight boxing use to rule the world........

              now we're lucky if we get a 30 second segment on espn between major league soccer and the water skiing chipmunk.
