Is Wilder the biggest Superstar boxer in US?

[icha]

I don't know about this PPV stuff. But I do know Fury will draw a lot of attention to himself in America and I know Wilder will ragdoll him in brutal fashion.

This will be one of those viral clips after the fight. That will bring popularity.

wilder can ko fury and AJ back to back and still wont reach canelos levels... casuals in america dont know about fury or joshua, in fact they know little about wilder him self...

He's headlining a PPV, he has a reality TV show, an Everlast commercial, and he is very known on social media. What more can you say about the man. He is officially the biggest star in American boxing and he is the closest thing to Tyson in the 80's and 90's

u mean he's a guest star on a show about women.

We'll see who's more popular after Wilder ends Furys career.

Serious? Canelo is a massive star. Literally nobody in north america cares about wilder. Even boxing fans don't care much about him. Floyd is still the biggest American star in boxing.

That said, boxing is not popular in America. Being the most popular guy in an unpopular sport is like being the smartest kid in special ed.

But let's give some credit to Wilder. Who came along when heavyweight boxing was pretty much dead in the US, and in a few short years has rebuilt interest to the point where heavyweights can headline a PPV.

Imagine if Wilder wasn't a boxer, the best homegrown American heavyweight would be Dominic Breazeale or Jarrell Miller. Yeesh

No he is not. Far from it.
These are american boxers more famous than Wilder

Mayweather Jr
Broner
Danny Garcia
Mikey Garcia
Crawford

Mayweather is retired.

The others aren't as famous as Wilder. Wilder's numbers prove that. Both in terms of social media, TV ratings, interest on google when they fight, etc. Wilder is clearly the biggest American star right now. Guarantee you his fight with Fury will out sell Crawford's fight with Postol.

His fights sell more tickets than the fighters you listed. The numbers on instagram tell the tale as well

Deontay Wilder has over a million followers. Broner 886,000, Danny Garcia 527,000, Mikey Garcia 189,000, Bud Crawford 264,000.

He's up there he does really good ratings

Like I already said. Fury will make this a circus and
Wilder will turn Fury into a meme when he KO Fury like
he was street trash.

OVERNIGHT SENSASTION

[Boksfan]

But Broner only has a skinny 4 inches

That's still 3 more inches than what Wilder got.

[New England]

no, canelo would be the biggest start, he's just not american. simmilar to pacquiao when floyd retired.

stars are made. people have to understand that. it takes organization and money to get fighters publicity. when wilder signs to fight joshua he will get a push into mainstream media and become the biggest start in boxing over night. that is how it will happen.

Yeesh is damn right.

About the same as Wlad's reign I guess. I'd rate both over Mormeck at least....I guess that's something....pathetic.
