Comments Thread For: Canelo Named World's Most Marketable Male Athlete; Anthony Joshua No. 75, Gervonta Davis No. 89

Godnelo is the total package. Movie star looks, can knock mfers out, he’s the worlds most marketable male, can bag any women in the world, AND it’s well known that he has an extremely well hung and thick beef.

When you have it all you have it all.

Godnelo is amazing.

To a drug cheat goes all the spoils. Jarrell Miller must be rolling over in his grave!

I love people acting like this list is just based on US marketability because Joshua is so low. Believe me, he’d never make the top 100 if this were just US based. Canelo is the biggest star in boxing by days. Globally.

It’s nonsense, the top 3 are trash. Most Americans see Simone as a quitter, and China don’t like black folks , ask Lebron how space jam is doing. In boxing Canelo is putting in the most work, it’s easy to see why he is the easiest to market.

"A trio of females in gymnast Simone Biles, tennis star Naomi Asaka and soccer player Ashlyn Harris round out the top three list." GTFOH

Ashlyn Harris is the 3rd most marketable Athlete? Never heard of her, did a Twitter check and she has 493k followers. I think there's something wrong with their list How is she more marketable than Ronaldo who has 93.9 mil?

I agree Big Baby is rolling around in his grave over Floyd Money Mayweather having the money and pull to cover up his PED usage.

Long live Godnelo

This is true. Who made this list?

Societies finest collection of Antifa cucks and Reddit ********.

I'd expect AJ to be higher, perhaps him getting battered and stopped by a fat man is still engrained into people's memory?

But MMA geeks and gamer nerds want boxing fans to think “boxing is dead”…..apparently it’s been “dying” ever since the early 20th century….poor diagnosis…

Every time a new ethnic group or race enters boxing as being the new “dominant” group, American writers and fans go crazy with the “boxing is dying” crap.

When the African Americans entered the boxing scene and were a competition to the then dominant Italian, ***ish and Irish boxers, same crap was written. Boxing is dying.

When Latinos started coming in droves, adding more international competition, same crap was written.

When more UK boxers started boxing and the boxing scene blew up in the UK, same sht from American writers and fans.

West Africans, Asians. Same thing.

Enter a new dominant group: Eastern European. What happens? Same crap. American fans and writers say boxing is dying.

Same crap every time.

Boxing has never, at any point, been close to “dying”. Instead it just becomes more internationally popular. It spreads.

Boxing can spread through the entire Universe, with like aliens boxing and sht, and American fans and writers will say boxing is dying or is dead.

Meanwhile AJ and Canelo have no issues drawing crowds.

The rise of boxing in other countries will always draw out this “boxing is dying” BS from Americans.

The thing about it is, boxing is still spreading. There are a ton of countries without a strong boxing presence, that will eventually have one. And brace yourself for American writers and fans to try to convince everyone that boxing is dying while in reality it is striving.
