    Boxing's New Generation

    After Mayweather and Pac leave, who will carry the reigns and keep boxing interesting?

    Off the top of my head, there's a few fighters like Bam Bam Rios (I'm not a fan of his) and maybe Andre Ward. Ward's got a decent following in Oakland. Not to mention he has an olympic story behind him... Besides that, I think boxing will be hurting once Pac and May leaves....

    Just look at this forum, all topics are built around those 2...

    Honestly until someone beats one of those guys I dont see another star really taking over the sport.

    Unless someone rises up who has large appeal and a very exciting style.

        But Tarver didn't take Jones' fan base when he beat him the first time?

        But let's say Pac and May don't lose, they just decide to retire on their winning streak... Who's next in line?

          He has a big mexican following, but I think Rios has more appeal to the American culture as well as Mexican...
