Will there ever be a time where the average person can name the heayweight champion?

Klitschko is Hugely popular and well known in germany

 

You actually had me googling tbf on the solar system? And I am a reasonably highly educated person (bachelor degree) so that probably isn't a fair question.

I had never heard its name in my 30 years but that's probably because its name is THE SOLAR SYSTEM.

Lol funny that, bit of a trick question really

 

1939

 

Most average people can't name what division Floyd and Manny were champs in mainly because there's a lot of divisions and belts. That being said I think if Joshua or Wilder can market themselves it can become a reality. Since it's not hard to know about heavyweight where as the lighter weight classes a lot of people are just stuck with guessing their weight (if they just look)

 

Pretty sure he meant [the planets] of the solar system. You are taking the words he wrote too literally.

 

Everyone knew Lewis and Holmes?atsch

Average Joe from the streets had no clue about these strangers here in Finland and certainly werent anything close around household names like Tyson. Fight fans knew them casuals barely.

Everyone did know Tyson thou.

 

Europe knows that Wladimir is the champ.

 

anthony joshua will bring it back in the UK and europe.
but wont be well known in usa unless he destroys some popular american fighter. but theres none about any good.

 

It's definitely looking uglier than ever, but you never know. I don't think anyone expected to name anyone after Ali then came Holmes, Tyson, Lewis, Holyfield...etc.
