Off the top of my head Manny Pacquiao Floyd Mayweather Conor Mcgregor Ronda Rousey (for MMA and womens) Canelo and GGG Khabib (not top 10 but close to most popular in MMA) GSP/Anderson Silva (MMA) Anthony Joshua is pretty huge (maybe not so much now) Jon Jones Tyson Fury Chuck Liddell I follow MMA more than boxing these past few years, but I am sure theres hundreds of top boxers who are 100x more popular than some of the names I listed. But the MMA guys are definitely among the most popular Mike Tyson was huge in the 80s
Bit of a weird thread considering you list the top 10 all time biggest PPV events (well pretty sure you listed only 8)with nearly half of those events you listed happening outside the last decade,also almost half of those events have nothing do with anything other then another thread from you on how boxing is so much better then MMA
These are the top 10 ppv events up until january 2020 in order,so havent included the Nate v Masvidal fight which likely pushed the Pacquio v Mosley fight outside of top 10 and would make an even 5 boxing and 5 mma. Will do my top 10 combat fighters from the last decade soon. Floyd v Pac Floyd v Conor Conor v Khabib Floyd v Canelo Conor v Nate 2 Floyd v Cotto Conor v Nate Pac v Marquez 3 Aldo v Conor Pac v Mosley
Conor is number 1 ahead of Floyd then the other 8 in no particular order. Pacquio Nate Rousey Khabib Canelo Fury Joshua Last spot was tricky but I pick Jon Jones ahead of Mosley with Jorge Masvidal making a late push,with his last couple of fights against Usman 1.3 mill ppvs and Diaz almost 2 million.
