Andy Ruiz if he beats Joshua again. Ruiz is very likable and people love the underdog story.

Boxing isn't going to be mainstream in the internet age, but I think it will get bigger among casual sports fans in the coming years. The platforms boxing is on now (ESPN, DAZN, Fox/FS1) are more geared toward sports fans whereas HBO was always more concerned about building stories and appealing to niche subscriber demographics with the fighters they promoted.

You won't get the same kind of attention the sport had with Manny Pacquiao and Floyd Mayweather drawing celebrity attendance, but I think we will see more general sports enthusiasts return to the sport, and I feel that this generation of fighters will be a lot better off than the last one, even if none of them really have potential to "cross over" into mainstream consciousness.
