    Fury v Joshua happens only for money if Joshua loses with Usyk and he definetively gets a finished fighter.

    Fury KO punch-drunk Bodybuilder within 5 rounds.
    Easy job for "Money" Gipsy King.

    Certainly, Crawford-Spence would be the big one. Much to my dismay, Tank Davis-Ryan Garcia would also be very popular.

    Joshua is going to be getting scraped from the canvas in about a months time, so I don't think this "mega fight" will be happening chief.

    Spence vs Crawford
    Tank vs Garcia
    Surprisingly Canelo vs Benavidez

    Tank vs Garcia doesn’t deserves to be up there but they both have a crazy amount of casual fans.. They think Tank is a legit 3 division champion.

    I'm not sold that it's some type of mega fight. I'm sure it's huge in the UK because they heavily support every domestic fight that's made. But to answer your question I'd say Mayweather vs McGregor.

    I`d rather see Usyk v Fury, AJ really isn`t that good.

    I am friends with some guys who are casual fans and the fight they care about the most is Tank vs Garcia. They all seem to think that Gervonta is the best P4P fighter in the world right now.

    Among boxing fans and maybe MMA fans (continued calling out of Francis Ngannou) yes, general public hell no. He's not one of the more known Athletes overall in the US outside of the fan groups I mentioned.
