Which Highly Ranked Boxer Has The Smallest Fan Base?

[keithmoonhangover]

Is there anyone that sells less tickets than Hughie Fury?

[Killer Blow]

Hughie is possibly the most boring fighter around right now, so probably not.

[dirk2686]

Saunders? Unbeaten, went to the Olympics, genuine world champion. Fighting in a leisure centre.

Tyson Fury does absolutely dismal business as well considering his standing.

[afcmarshall]

Degale considering hes a genuine belt holder and one of the uks highest ranked fighters

[asdfjkl]

Ortiz I guess, I don't think Stiverne has many either

[Boxing Prospect]

Haskins?

[Counter-puncher]

Junior Witter back in the day

[bigjack]

Saunders i would say.

[Stuarty]

Junior Witter back in the day

No wonder! Watching him was torturous most of the time!

[Syntax Error]

Andre Ward?

Considering how good he is & what he has achieved, he doesn't seem to attract much love.

[Rexob]

Saunders? Unbeaten, went to the Olympics, genuine world champion. Fighting in a leisure centre.

Must be a racist thing.

I thought I was the only one around here with that opinion - the amount of would Hughie beat boxer x type threads you would think he was the next big thing

Wes Shaw's his biggest fan

Yes that is definitely the only explanation.

For good/bad I think the challenge in building fan support for the Fury's/BJS is that they are not on Sky. Not sure why DeGale hasn't got a big following though, perhaps many don't gel with his personality / habit of taking a couple of rounds off a fight?

For all his antics Eubank Jnr does generate a lot of interest.

To be fair the biggest fight of Fury's career was on Sky, meaning he hasn't had a non-Sky fight for nearly two years. That received a massive amount of publicity.

I don't know fighters fan base but Martin j ward from personal expierience. Honestly had about 12 fans , people were choosing to top their drinks up when he came on and all the English around us were cheering for Ronnie. Quite a strange one as you would think travellers would come out and support him.

[Nightmare Roy]

All Cubans

[Furey]

I remember Eddie Hearn having a dig during an IFL interview at one of his fighters having sold barely any tickets.... and I believe the man in question was Scott Cardle, although Eddie didn't name him.

[Gnome]

Who would have a bigger fan base - Groves or Degale? Genuine question.

Groves by some margin.

[mullenman]

Groves for sure..

I know his last fight was a flop but he has had some big fights. Not to long ago degale who is a class boxer was fighting in shopping centres. All his fights since then in the UK he has been an undercard fighter

[Black Sam Bellamy]

Considering the amount of publicity they get, the Smith brothers don't appear to shift many tickets. Especially Callum. On the verge of a world title with Sky exposure and he's still not headlined a bill from
Liverpool as far as I can see (apart from a local Derby against Fielding)

[ElJefe]

The travelling thing is a bit weird, I remember people saying in interviews how big Lee vs Saunders would be in the travelling community yet ticket sales (and general interest) struggled badly.

[Fitzy901]

BJS has a decent fanbase.

I was at both the Eubank and Saunders fights and both venues would of been complete and utter ghost towns if it wasnt for him.
