    Sadly its Amir Khan
    Second is Carl Froch
    Tyson Fury known mainly in name only, but will be well known as a Wlad victim soon.
    George Groves for getting KTFO on HBO
    Joe Calzaghe non entity to most casual fans.....sadly
    James DeGale no one knows or cares about him yet.

    Calzaghe wishes he had a tenth of the attention Lewis and Hatton got internationally.

    Never underestimate how big the WWF/WWE is in America. Vince McMahon made over a billion dollars between 99'-08'. That audience is loyal.

    I'm sensing a dive, here.

    holy **** im American I thought it died out like 15 or so years ago never hear anyone talk about fake wrestling, or the vastly more boring real wrestling for that matter except maybe in mma, guess it has a audience though wow. Oh and I think probably Froch or Calzaghe's the most popular of those choices.

    Probably Khan as he's a big hero to all Paks and there's 250m of them.

    Admit it, in 99-2001 that **** was huge. They were going over to the UK selling out too, so you Brits on here can quit the faking too. They all went to see that **** just like Froch v Groves and Soccer matches.

    Has to be Carl Froch...

    Ali told everyone he was "the greatest", and it gets repeated all around the world.
    Floyd told everyone he is "the best f-er", and it gets repeated by fl*m*s all around.
    Froch told everyone he is "an international superstar", so we're supposed to repeat that too :bart

    The main event of Elimination Chamber 2011 was headlined by The Truth. It sold out Oakland arena (12,500),Ward v Dawson had an attendance of just over 4,000 in the same arena and allegedly many of them were comped.

    It wasn't a joke.
