        be real

        hopkins isn't a draw and never was. his fight with pascal drew so much because pascal is fighting at home and canadians are loyal supporters. hopkins-rjj did very poor numbers and the attendance was less than rjj-adamu

              What about Trinidad DLH Taylorx2 Tarver all of them huge fights. Also Canadians want to see their guy beat an ATG thats why its drawing so much

                Its your list but Oscar is without a doubt top 3. Heck he made Mayweather and Pacquiao stars. Also interesting you have Lewis and not Hamed do any Brits want to chime in on who was bigger.

                    Ali, Tyson, Foreman are the 3 most famous fighters, everyone knows them. The list is my opinion on who is the biggest worldwide, not just in America or Britain. DLH isn't as big as you think outside America.
