    In MY opinion, canelo vs ggg is not the biggest fight in boxing, as oscar claims.

    He says he wants to wait a while for it to marinate. Let's say 1 year (which would be the least he's gonna wait imo) the fight between:
    Anthony Joshua vs Deontay Wilder is bigger than Canelo vs GGG.

    It will do more PPV buys worldwide, guaranteed KO. More public interest.

    I agree that right now the biggest fight is Ward/Kovalev.

    Winner of this fight is undisputed #1 p4p in my book

    the biggest fight in boxing on this forum and the biggest fight in boxing worldwide to attract huge PPVs are 2 totally different things , ward and kovalevs fan base is non existent compared to certain other fighters and only hardcore boxing fans would pay to see it , if you want huge PPV buys then you have to attract the casuals , casuals will not pay to see andre ward !!
