      Have you heard either of these guys talk? lmao! GGG looks and talks like hes about -1 chromosone away from being ******ed & Thurman, well lets just say it wouldnt surprise me if he came out to the ring to Tom Jones "Its not Unusual" doing the Carlton Banks dance, thats about as far as his/their personality(s) goes.

      Terrance Crawford (skills pay the bills), Canelo (due to his Nationality), & Wilder (if he can beat a Klitchko)

        Even the All Access shows are boring. I used to love the 24/7 episodes leading up to Oscar vs May, May vs Mosley. Boxing needs another 'villain' as they say. The sport needs someone to hate just as much as someone to love.

          I'm not sure and those type of predictions can easily be squandered by one off night. If anything I wouldn't bank on most of the known fighter that are out right now. If anything I would like to give Verdejo the title but in reality it's extremely unlikely to be able to properly predict these sort of things.

          I mean.. Who would have guessed a young fighter, on two weeks notice and a replacement fighting out of the Philippines would become such a massive star a few years later? I doubt many of us had any idea Manny would become such a global star.

            Canelo barely speaks a word of English. You gotta get over to the masses to get the massive amounts of ppvs. I dont see him becoming a big PPV star. I think most of the fighters will be on the same level now after Floyd & Manny. They'll be able to get a million ppvs but nothing more unless they're matched up with another million ppv type fighter

            Floyd became a PPV star A) due to him winning but more importantly, B) he made people watch him and want him to lose. Who out there currently is like that? Broner? but he's already lost and people dont give two figs about him now. They now he's not the real deal.

            Love or hate him. Floyd was smart with his career decisions.

              100% agree with you. I can't see anyone out there who would even dare to portray themselves like Floyd did. I desperately want to see another ****y 'villian'.

                      Canelo. I think it'll be hard to see anyone else sell a bunch of PPVs.
