Do the majority of boxing fans not really care about Ward and Mayweather anymore?

    ****** thread. It's the fight they're voting for not an individual fighter.

    Lil G is a long way behind Mayweather, Pacquiao, Canelo in popularity. 97k PPV and $30 tickets doesn't put you in their bracket.

      Now here comes the hard bit Kovalev doesn't have that big massive following he is great to watch and really talented but he isn't marketed right.

      Andre Ward I dunno what to say about him I think people have seen the lies and hype around Floyd about how good he is and that and they see past it, fans are in it for the short term they don't care about someone taking zero risks to be a great you've got to prove it in an EMPHATIC fashion something Ward has never done so once again his own fault.

      GGG Vs. Canelo would decide the P4P 1 crown not Sergey Kovalev Vs. Ward.
      Pretty much, nobody outside of Oakland gives a **** about ward. Even here, nobody cared about ward until G showed up and said "mayweather".

        Guys, social media isn't definite proof of anything. Not everyone uses social media and not everyone who does votes in polls like these. 21,946 is a large number of people individually, but collectively, it's still a very small sample of the overall boxing public.

        I'm sure casuals would eat up a rematch between Mayweather and Pacquiao before they would the other two fights. I personally though, am far more interested in seeing the other two fights (especially Canelo vs GGG) over it.

          Mayweather retired and no one wants to see a rematch with Pac.

          Ward has to stay active against decent opposition to make some noise.

          Kovalev vs Ward is the most important fight in boxing right now but neither guy has star appeal. That said the winner of Kov/Ward is P4P #1 in my eyes.

              There's even less commitment going into Canelo/GGG but it is still the more alluring fight.

                Ward? I definitely want to see him vs Kovalev. Mayweather? Honestly, I could live the rest of my life, never see him fight again, & I'd die a happy man.
