    By completely ignoring the rest of my post, I assume you agree then Larry?

    Floyd/PBC was just an observation I made. It may or may not be correct. It however wasn't the crux of the post, which you seemed to avoid

      Joshua, Pac, Canelo are more popular but only due to nationalism. Unfair to compare GGG's US Numbers to Canelo when there lives 30 million Mexicans in the US and almost no Kazakh people!

      we're talking about who is the most marketable fighter in boxing. GGG is not that person... Fact

        2.) Are any active US American Fighters even as popular in the UNITED STATES as the Kazakh Fighter GGG?
        What about non US fighters not based in America? I can name a big hulking HW that when you take away the talent, skills, technical ability etc, still smashes GGG out the park for marketing and endorsement revenue, PPV numbers and social media popularity.

          Manny and GGG are not even in the same stratosphere..and Canelo has by far taken the more risk and has done more..seems like ya'll just want GGG to be handed something

              I think that his best years are behind him already... I don't hope to see those big fights he already missed... But that was it...

                This!!!!! It's embarrassing. GGG global star can't sell out tickets and draw more then 100K PPVs. But doing a commercial in khazak bum stan means something? SMH

                  I agree but its still an unfair comparison. Without Mexican fans how big of a star is Canelo? Same with Pac without filipinos..

                  If there lived millions of Kazakhs in the US GGG would be a mega star.

                  Nah mean

                  I am a huge fan of Canelo so not hating. Also boxing fans call Canelo a cherry picker yet GGG has been begging for a Chavez jr fight for years. Double standard lol

                    Canelo would be an average joe if he were black or white. Pacquiao transcended race or nationality, he was an ATG fighter. Being Mexican is the best asset Canelo has going for him. And the color of his hair maybe.

                      NO!!! it just means there trolls who create a ton of alt and flood these boards to talk about GGG and that instigates others to come back and clown them. People need to realize that shyt that goes on in boxingscene don't translate to the real world. The boards were non stop flooded heading into GGG/Lemieux and same idiots like you said wow look how popular he is on these boards that means he's going to do 500-600k PPV Buys. That's what fools were actually saying. Then it bombs does only 150k. Canelo/Cotto same amount of traffic on boxingscene but it does 900K PPV buys. Because REAL people care about Canelo and Cotto and couldn't care less about GGG. He is only know in this little bubble of die hard boxing fans. And post like this only create messageboard wars that the avg joe never sees or cares about and does NOTHING for GGG big picture.

                      You idiots think if you talk about GGG more then Floyd, Manny, Canelo, Cotto on a phuking messageboard that means he's in the same class as them. He's not.
