Comments Thread For: Hearn: Winner of Ruiz-Joshua 2 is Biggest Star in Boxing

[factsarenice]

I see people mention Canelo and he's talented but more importantly he's matched well.

Disagree. But it’ll be second biggest...which in Aj’s case, he basically already is but getting f ucked up really didnt do him any favors. If Ruiz wins again in emphatic fashion, I’m still not sure he becomes number 2 but he’ll be up there for sure. He’s a Mexican/American and that def will help his case.

AJ is already the biggest star in boxing. Or who else is going to make £85million in one fight? Canelo won't even make that in 3 fights combined and Manny was just begging for $20million for one fight, lol.

If AJ beats Ruiz in Saudi Arabia and fights April next year - he'd be the biggest earner in all of sports. Haters can't stop the train.

Poor Hearn doesn't get it. Ruiz smashes Joshua again and is seen as the average beatable fighter who twice ko'd the lad from England who twice stepped out of his comfort zone. Doesn't make Ruiz the biggest star in boxing ...ffs!

The biggest stars in boxing are always those keeping the green belt hostage.

Chavez jr, Canelo, Wilder

The winner is not the bigget star in boxing or even in the heavyweight division. If the winner beats Fury and Wilder then they can argue that. What are the odds on a draw? Another possible result, but hopefully won't be.

If Ruiz wins again and in style....that mans worth is going to be astronomical, he will be a huge star in Mexico, he will have so many options and sponsorship deals it's not funny. Every man is gonna want a piece of him tho, but they gonna have to get in line he will have 2 mandatories back to back.

If Joshua wins tho, most people will say meh...we expected that now the HW division is back to how it was prior to Ruiz beating Joshua, wont be a big deal to anyone.

...physically the biggest? I mean yeah of course.
