    Anthony Joshua



    erm...does it matter? Possibly Canelo but he is unknown in the mainstream. Pac is still a mainstream name and demands big money but he has dipped severely as a fighting draw.

    The rest are not draws worth mentioning.

      True he was never a big draw even after he beat Wlad, but his period of inactivity has helped hugely with his popularity along with him being an obvious antagonist to Joshua. That and there are few true big draws in boxing right now.


      Canelo is obviously the biggest draw, he makes the most money and has had the highest earning PPV's.

      Joshua is the next biggest draw, every PPV sells over a million, though at a lower price than in the US, probably makes 15-20 mill for every fight even against a nobody.

      Pac isn't as big a draw as he was but he still reportedly made $10 mill vs Horn.


      After the obvious big 3 earners it gets a bit muddled. Before Haye retired I would of said Haye. Haye/Bellew 1 did 750K PPV buys and both earned millions for that fight, not sure what the rematch did but it probably did similar numbers.

      Golovkin is a big name and made good money vs Canelo but then he only made 1 mill vs Vanes?

      Wilder did the highest Showtime ratings vs Ortiz in years, so he could be a top 5 draw. But then he only made 2.1 mill for that and you have other Haymon fighters like Stevenson, Spence Jr etc making more. Even Mikey Garcia made more than that for Lipenets.

      Whyte sold out the O2 vs Browne and is about to have a PPV fight with Parker. If that does well you could argue he's a top 5 draw as he'd be a proven PPV fighter.

              I change my #5 to Pacquiao rather than Crawford but that could be soon to change like by the end of today ha. Joshua could overtake Golovkin but not because of his last fight. That fight suuuucked!
              Alvarez, Golovkin, Joshua, Lomachenko, Pacquiao

                  well if joshua ppv was increased to 80 dollars he would create bigger numbers than canelo...canelo against smith was 475k ppv and joshua vs takam was over 1 million so yes joshua is the bigger draw if head to head with canelo

                    danny fought in philly once
                    spence fought in dallas once

                    easter didnt put 10,000 in the arena in toledo
                    broner last fight in cincy did bad in ticket sales. (taylor) that is why he no longer fights in cincy

                    mikey,santa cruz,mares are all mexican american so i dont count them. they have a all mexican fan base basically they are mexican.

                    im pretty much talking black fighters
