    Who's next in line to be a mainstream star?

    Who do you think, now that the mainstream stars are retired? Thoughts?

      It’s tough man, Canelo is the only guy who’s a bonafied mainstream star ATM.

      AJ obviously has potential. The AJ/Wilder winner could become a mega star IMO

      Crawford/Spence/Thurman all have potential if they get bigger fights/fight more often

      Loma and Mikey Garcia are the only other guys who I could see becoming mainstream

      It’s hard to predict though tbh who would’ve said Canelo would be the biggest star in boxing 8-10 years ago?

            You really think Canelo is mainstream? Biggest star, sure but I nevet considered him mainstream. I always thought mainstream was doing talk shows, big endorsements, or more in the public eye in general. I think Canelo's lack of English is hindering his mainstream status imo.

                Agree 1000% about winner of Joshua v Wilder that could be so HUGE for boxing.Can just imagine how much that could be promoted to the casuals.They LOVE a monster heavy champ.(esp undisputed)I mean 59-0 58kos The winner and maybe the loser become huge and boxing will piggyback off of it.And if somone would start promoting Spence,Thruman that SHOULD be huge but I have my doulbs about that 1.

                  Canelo and AJ are the biggest stars in Boxing right now.

                  After them it's hard to say, Loma and GGG I suppose.

                  I can't see another Mayweather or Pacquiao type star for another 15-20 years.

                    Tank Davis is already trending that way. Huge social media following.
