    Who do you reckon will be the new 'face' of boxing?

    We had Muhammad Ali, Tyson, Leonard, Pacquiao, and Mayweather, who became household names and recognizable icons to the casual bystander on the street.

    With the current generation of boxers on the way out, with Mosley and DLH retired, with Pac and Floyd on the way, who will be the next recognizable face? Canelo's popular only with primarily Mexican fans. B-hop and Martinez are retiring soon. Broner is still only beginning to make his mark.

    Do you think it'll be one of these prodigal up-and-comers or do you think it'll be a dark-horse who's yet to come?

        Canelo and Broner look good picks right now but the chances off a fighter coming out off the blue are always good

                  With the brothers retiring you're looking at the prospect of a new American heavyweight champion emerging in a few years. The novelty of the title being back in the US alone will generate a lot of hype.
