Question Is the Era of the SUPERSTAR Over (?)

Will we ever see another Tyson, Oscar, Floyd, or Manny again?

A star always emerges & takes the others place.
(Like a used sprocket)

Alvarez & Broner come to mind...

No, the next superstar is probably the Irish dude posing as a Mexican.

edit: I voted yes, should be no

Yeah of course, someone new will surface who will capture the public's imagination, and with the right promotion, they'll be built into a star

He doesn't speak English in public because otherwise his Irish accent will give him away

Nonito Donaire. Absolute monster with around 2-4 years left on him.

Is Canelo really going to be of the skill level of the likes of Manny/Money? I don't know.

Same thing gets asked after every era. No joke.

when Hoya was the main guy many people were saying boxing was on its way out because it didnt have anyone to replace Hoya and Trinidad.

Now its people asking if anyone can replace Mayweather and Pac (whats funny is they are arguably bigger then the era that came before them when people were talking about how there wouldnt be anyone to replace hoya)

This era there are many stars in the making..... Broner, Garcia, Ward (with a few more high profile fights, a little more mainstream exposure and some more stoppage wins in his big fights he will get there trust me), Canelo, ect, ect.

Personally Im not a believer in their greatness other then Ward, but their drawing power will probably do very well should they continue to win.
