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.
Joshua is unknown in america. and his fights generates less money than canelo fights though.
so joshua isnt mainstream either.

They generate less money thats only because here they don't charge 80 dollars for ppv.
And if they did i still gurantee you joshua would still sell millions.
Joshua vs klitchcko 1.8 million ppv
Joshua vs parker. 1.5 million
Joshua vs takam. 1.4 mllion
Canelo vs glovkin 1.4 million ppv
Canelo vs chavez 1.1 million
Canelo vs smith. 475 k
Now is the thing the uk has 68 million population and the us has a 385 million population ser per ratio joshua is a 5x bigger draw

Not sure if he's in the top 5 in boxing but it's possible. There isn't really many fighters you can say has actual drawing power in boxing today.

If we do it on ratio of population:buys, would Canelo do 5m or 6m buys PPV's at $30 (roughly £20) against someone on the level of Takam? - that would be the equivalent if you factor in population and potential market audience.
in reality, there's so many factors involved in terms of cost, population etc..it's difficult to make an accurate judgement, but right at this very moment with all those things factored in, there isn't a fighter out there that can carry a PPV to do big numbers without a dance parter like AJ can.
You see a significant drop off in numbers when Canelo fights a relatively unknown guy. With AJ, it remains consistent because he himself is the draw. Canelo needs the event to be the draw.Last edited by TheBigLug; 07-14-2018, 08:49 AM.

if we go by if then if canelo was selling his ppvs in mexico as cheap as joshua he could be making big bucks, he gets ratings of 20mil... instead he sells his fights directly to the networks who get huge money from advertising in order to give it free to people... canelo is huge in mexico and the us, and gets money from both, he could be drawing huge with cheap affordable ppvs... but again thats a big if... as far as draw as the op asked, his numbers in mexico alone generate more viewers than any other boxer in the world, if we want to talk about money, his numbers in america are bigger than anyones, those are facts, no if needed..

Incidentally, for those interested in hard numbers over anecdotes, the boxers earning the most in purses for the last year were (according to Forbes) :-
1 Mayweather ($275m)
2 McGregor ($85m)
3 Canelo ($42m)
4 Joshua ($32m)
5 Golovkin ($23m)
