On a serious note charisma is a very rare quality, therefore there can only be a handful of charismatic boxers. I must have a different definition of the word charisma than some of you. Adrien Broner really? You don't get booed anywhere you go when you have charisma, you get cheered. He would actually be the opposite of charismatic. Mayorga, Fury have no class. Think of all the people you know who can't complete a sentence without swearing or shouting. Are they charismatic? I'm not even sure there's a precise definition of charisma anyway so you're sure to see a lot of different opinions.

Carl Froch.
People are picking mostly loud mouth's who are nothing more than that. saying ****** **** loud is not charisma...Broner as an example, he is an idiot, not charasmatic.
Froch is laid back, but has such a casual arrogance that he is brilliant to listen to. It also helps that he's intelligent.

Paulie Malignaggi is very charismatic and a good talker as is Sergio Martinez. Lucas Matthysse has his charm about him (people like the dude, doesnt even have to speak). Likewise for GGG.
Kovalev has that bad ass thing going for him.
David Haye is, Froch, Kahn and Fury are too.
The K Bros.
Chavez JR is also charismatic. Dude does everything wrong and we just cant help but watch.
Mayweather isnt charismatic... he's socially awkward with ZERO charisma. He's an anomally in terms of his success. I think people have just finally acknowledged his skill. Remember, nobody cared about Floyd for a LONG time.
Tyson was charismatic, Ali, Ray Leonard, chavez Sr, camacho, Oscar, etc etc.
You can talk a big game but it doesnt make you charismatic. Look at Ward and Alexander. Broner is very charismatic thats why people kind of take him lightly and thats the diff between him and Floyd. Broner is likeable, Floyd isnt (at all).
Why were his 24/7s consistently the highest rated?
Watch this backstage interview with Floyd (Broner is quiet..hmm) and re-evaluate your statements.

Wlad is borderline charismatic, Pacquiao too but Floyd is in the same boat as Broner

Again, Floyd is an anomally. You're born with charisma, he's never had it. Floyd used to not be that popular or cared for outside of his skill.
Go ahead, throw Floyd on a talk show surrounded by Fury, Haye, Tyson, Roy Jones, Hamed, Hatton and watch Floyd's personality shrink. It happens all the time. Watch any of his interviews. Watch him on dancing with the stars, on Ridiculousness, etc etc. He's got zero charisma. Nothing wrong with it he's just socially awkward. GGG and Canelo ooze charisma and dont have to say a word. All these charismatic dudes never seem out of their element. Throw Floyd outside his entourage and hes not the same. I admire Floyd's skills but thats all hes got.

Ggg- his good boy routine, and broken English, boyish looks, thundering power, and his fashion makes him the most interesting person to me..
The dude is like the Borat of boxing

I like Froch and Manny.
Fury has grown on me a lot. Boxing doesn't have that many charismatic figures to be honest.
