    Which stars of the past would command crazy money and crazy box office appeal today...?
    It's the same game...but the elite level money is through the roof...Who among the past stars takes it to a new level...? For the sake of conversation...please exclude Muhammad Ali!

    Obviously Robinson. Very charismatic and beautiful to watch.

    Jack Johnson has the type of personality that paparazzi would
    relish today. He would be a walking headline.
