Comments Thread For: Marvin Hagler: Anthony Joshua is The New Superstar of Boxing

[Sheldon312]

Canelo and AJ are boxing’s only stars. Despite the WW division being stacked with great talent, I don’t see any of them becoming stars which is a shame.

All the Wilder fans will be in here soon complaining how Hagler doesn’t support his won heavyweight champ.. It must be because Wilder is black.

Thurman, Crawford, and Spence are super stars in their own right. All three have sold out the Barclay center

Hagler’s right about one thing. As long as team Joshua bides the time, waiting for Wilder to lose or retire, and waiting for Ortiz to age to beat him or wait til he retire also. Yeah, AJ bide your time.

No they aren’t.. But they should be. None of those guys even have 100k followers on twitter.. Even Eddie Hearn a promoter has close to 600k followers. Canelo has 1.2 million followers and AJ has 8.1million followers and they have also headlined their own PPV fight. No current WW is a superstar.

I just know there's a casual out there that will say something ****ty about MMH. Like Cantyello would KO him, or some idiotic comment. By the way he's 5' 9" same size as Cantyellow. He would swallow him whole lol!!

Twitter? LMFAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

LMAO??? You do realise that a "star" is someone who has a big fanbase and social media following????? A persons social presence and awareness is what determines their commercial value so I don't know what you find so funny. You obviously have no clue about marketing. The definition of a "star" is someone who is famous/well known.. you're not famous/well known if you have no fans or followers. It's pretty simple really.

What about selling out the Barclay?

That does not class them as superstars.. they are popular boxers, but there is a big difference between being popular and being a superstar. A superstar is some who transcends the sport.. Only real boxing fans know who guys like Crawford and Spence are.

Canelo has peaked. Joshua, Crawford, Spence can only get more popular.
