Which boxer created the biggest buzz in the history of boxing

atsch

 

Bingo :good

It's not even close, no one else could hold a candle to Ali

 

Without a doubt it was Jack Johnson!!!

 

Ali and Tyson for sure. Floyd and especially Hatton doesn't belong to this list.

 

Rocky Balboa :deal

 

Why Floyd? He's just boisterous, and nothing more.

 

Joe louis, Muhammad ali, Sugar Ray Leonard, Roy Jones, De La Hoya, Mike Tyson, Floyd Mayweather, Manny Pacquiao,

there are others but these where the most notable

 

gary lockett

 

We often forget the hype once these fighters have passed but lets recall the ridiculous hype for J Lacy & J Taylor both diffused at European level, still they were very good in America

 

Dempsey was the most popular boxer in a period when boxing was at its most popular.

The numbers he generated were incredible.

 

that maybe true but up against ali he pales baddly

 

:good

 

americans were hyping lacy as the new tyson before he came to england to meet joe calzaghe. not only did calzaghe humiliate lacy that night but he totally humiliated the delusional bull**** wrote in ring magazine and spoken on HBO comedy channel that continually gets swallowed by dumb, narrow mineded americans everywhere atsch

americans were hyping jermain taylor just because he beat bernard hopkins. why? there have been 8 times hopkins has got into the ring and not been good enough to win the fight. when taylor stepped up to euro level, he got knocked out by carl froch and even got his ass stomped on by arthur abrahams :rofl

america seems to specialize in these hype jobs, the media brain washes gullable americans everywhere into thinking the likes of tarver, dawson, judah, johnson, jacobs, pavlik, alexander, williams etc are top fighters :nut
