Amir Khan is the biggest star after Mayweather & Pacquiao retire

[M Bison]

No he isn't, and you could argue that Anthony Joshua has already overtaken him in the UK.

That's because Joshua only fights in Britain, If Khan did the same he'd be selling PPV events all the damn time.

[Boxing Goat]

Khan couldn't carry a PPV against anybody but Manny.

GGG is the future and it's not even close.

Nobody in the US knows who Khan is outside of hardcore boxing fans. Nobody.

If Khan is the biggest star, then boxing is ****ed.

I don't know where people get the idea that Khan is a big draw.

LOL no that hasn't happened and is unlikely for the foreseeable future.

However, Cotto, Canelo and Wlad are bigger stars but yeah, after those guys, there's Khan.

I can't really think of any other stars which has cross over appeal on an international stage.

[Fantasiabruja]

The next big PPV will be Canelo if he gets by Cotto followed by GGG.

Because he's a big draw in the UK? People brag about 1.5 mil viewers in the US, Khan was doing 10 million against nobodies in the UK.

[Ruthless One]

It's going to be Lomachenko. Watch.

LOOL this is so true, in fact when Khan fought on...I dunno, was it channel 5? Anyway, fight from the US, early hours of the morning and the guy got 6 million viewer (think it might have been ITV). And this was after a hiatus of YEARS from terrestrial British TV following the Sky deal and then the primetime deal and then the problems at Boxnation.

Khan is a draw. They just need to accept that.

Sorry Canelo is

Canelo doesn't speak English, therefore the casual sports audience won't pay him any mind, capping his PPV potential at whatever he can get from hardcore fights fans/Latin American fight fans. Cotto-Canelo is a big fight, but I doubt that Canelo ever tops 600k PPV buys for any other fight.

Khan is not even that popular in the UK. His fan base consists of a few hundred die hard UK Pakistani males. He tried to reinvent himself in the U.S. and got ktfo, now he is trying to win the ****** support by fighting in Dubai.

Khan is history, he is gutless and pathetic.
