    JCC. Officially.

    How many was it against Haugen? Somewhere between 134,000-138,000 I think.

    I'm pretty sure Dempsey's attendance record stood until the early 90's.

    yup JLC gets it, if anything for the Haugen fight. If he wanted to he could have fought quite a few of his big fights there and it would have done about the same in terms of attendance.

    overall tyson, sugar ray leonard and hoya, though chavez was a huge draw among the hispanic audience as well. floyd should'nt even be in that discussion, has trouble selling out in his home town.

    Single biggest crowd? JCC sr.

    All time most famous/popular? Ali.

    He used to, Oscar passed him maybe a year and a half ago, while Holyfield passed him after the Iggy fight last year, all together Tyson still is most popular fighter since Ali IMO.
