    I voted for Hatton. Which other boxer could take 20.000 fans to another country?

      As of today? Pac does. They are loyal as hell too. If you are asking at the peak of their popularity, its Oscar by a fuucking mile.

        Yeah but could Oscar have taken 20.000 or more fans to say England if he had fought there? I don't think so myself.

          No, but he was a massive name over here, and stayed that way for much longer then Hatton did in England. But you are right, nobody in Boxing that I can think of could bring fans overseas with him like Ricky could.

            Pacquiao has a lot of momentum, but DLH was still the biggest draw on this list by a good margin.

              depends what you base it on, draw in terms of PPV it DLH, but in terms of fans in seats has to be hatton, especially over sea's!

                Surely it has to be the following? I know De La Hoya had most PPV. But would his fans travel the world to watch him live? I should have named the thread "Who had/has the best following?" My bad.
