Mayweather's retirement is near and Pacquiao's on a clear decline, it's time to find another superstar to replace them. Now instead of naming potential guys who can fill these roles, how about we design one? In order for boxing to thrive again, we need a boxer that will transcend the sport. What that being said, what weight class, ethnicity, promoter, personality, and boxing style should he possess in order to carry the sport of boxing. Of course all opinions are welcomed. I'll start it off.
Weight class: Heavyweight(Heavyweights get more media attention than other weight classes)
Ethnicity: Mexican American (Mexicans will gravitate towards him like they did De La Hoya and he will bring in the American fans as well. He needs to speak Spanish in order for this to work)
Promoter: Golden Boy(He doesn't have a platform of a PBC however Oscar is willing to work with the majority of promoters to set up great fights)
Boxing style: Boxer Puncher with power(It will be a mix style between skill and will. It will please the casuals with his power as well but the purists can appreciate his skills in the ring)
Personality: Laid back and humble(This personality will make him a fan favorite and easy to root for.)
What do you guys think? What is your list?
