    Which fight would attract the most casuals to watch boxing?

    IN regards to fights that hasn't happened. I think GGG-Canelo/Cotto is definitely one, Ward-GGG too. Can't think of anything else

    I think Wilder/Fury would. Heavyweights who would have a good pre-fight build up.

        I think Wilder has so much potential, a large black American Heavyweight with a chip on his shoulder. America loves to hate a dominant black athlete, so with that said, Wilder vs Klitchko, if promoted right and on regular TV would get the world buzzing. GGG vs Ward would be a great undercard to that match. That would be some 1980s Don King type fight promotion...

          honestly top 3 in my book as far as entertainment and notoriety would be

          1) Golovkin vs. Froch - Slugfest
          2) Wilder vs Tyson Fury or Klitchko - African American champion vs. a big mouth popular brit or vs. the universily recognized best heavyweight (a bit boring) on the planet (will be even bigger after the klit vs. fury fight takes place)
          3) Golovkin vs. Cotto/Canelo - rising power puncher vs. a big cash cow

          I didn't mention Golovkin vs. Ward because even though i think this is an excellent fight i think it mostly appeals to the hard core fans. Personally i would love to see this fight so we can put this GGG vs. Ward feud to bed.

                  GGG has to figure out how to attract the hard-core, let alone the casuals.

                  But in all honesty; there's no super bouts in the immediate horizon and I think for a good long while. Cotto/Alvarez II and maybe even Cotto/Alvarez III

                  Guys in the come up just don't seem to have that "it" factor yet - but sometimes a hot boxer just storms in and takes the sport by storm.

                    Em nah but their might be some who like him for that lol, I just think the hype around AJ is quite big at the moment I hear people who know literally nothing about the sport talking about this guy as If he Is the Messiah.
