    GGG
    Terrence Crawford
    Thurman
    Kell extra technical Brook
    Danny Garcia
    Andre Ward(he'll be number 1 whenever he comes back)

    The real question is when will the next Floyd or Pacquiao or Marquez come about?

    Kell Brook is not going to take over! One good win and suddenly he's the future of the sport! He'll never be a ppv fighter in American unless he's the B side.

    Canelo already is a superstar and will remain a PPV fighter his numbers follow that of early Floyd and Manny PPV's

    Keith Thurman he's in a stacked division can punch and is likable he really could become big over night if he gets 1 or 2 big wins.

    Terrence Crawford really good fighter if he moves up to 140 he could be a real big draw.

    Anthony Joshua the future superstar of UK boxing

    Felix Verdejo the next Puerto Rican superstar.


    Some of the guys you mentioned

    GGG could be in some big fights but he's 32 he's not the long term future of boxing.

    Andre Ward he's already 30 and can't draw ****, he's wasting his career amazing fighter but never going to be a big star.

    Danny Garcia isn't good enough he'll be found out soon enough, he'll be very relevant for years but never a ppv star.

    Ward is semi retired and has done nothing of note in years.

    im talking about pound for pound boxers not big ppv stars... all of that big money talk doesn't mean a goddamn thing. and i really have faith in brook, he gave porter his first loss in his own country, he's technically sound and he has really good defense and accuracy. after he beats khan and gets a big mega fight he's going to be recognized as one of the best, i guarantee it.

    Real P4P or media P4P?
    In terms of "real P4P" people like Gonzalez, Inoue, Tanaka, Kiatniwat and Ishida

    In terms of media P4P which ever fighter gets a nice winning run in the US and gets the backing of GBP/TR.

    S.O.G is #2 p4p right now
    Danny G #10 p4p

    These two will rule the sport as soon as Floyd leaves.

    Andre's win over Chad is one of the best wins in boxing in recent years

    Beating the unified 175 lb champ. :deal

    Dawson at that point was p4p.

    Winning the Super 6

    Beating Dawson (unified 175 lb champ)

    Bika/Miranda/Dawson/Froch/Kessler/etc.

    Great wins.
