    Canelo probably worldwide but will be Joshua by the end of the year once he makes a name in the states.

    :lol: I've not actually heard that one before but you did nearly get me. However, I was suspicious it might be one of those joke names and I worked it out quickly lol

    Audley Harrison won a gold at the Sidney Olmpic games but was never as famous as AJ is now.

    yeah, for all the wrong reasons, though. My point is with social media, a nobody can gain a million youtube or twitter hits, surely an athlete, let alone a champion should feel slighted if William Hung has 4 million plus people who knows him, ....

    but ask those same people if they know who is Anthony Joshua, Tyson Fury or Golevkin...and see if 1 million out of 4 knows.
    Then ask them about Mike Tyson, most know him from the bite fight. Ali was known around the world as a champ, a hero, a muslim and at worst a braggart. Maybe Santa Claus is more than Ali....and that is a BIG maybe:cool:

    He was also never an undefeated HW champ of the world. He also didnt defeat a KLIT.
    I'm just stating why AJ is more popular. I'm not arguing who is more popular AJ or Fury.
