Most of the self-proclaimed boxing fans I know won't know who any of those three are.

The average person wouldn't know of them but the average boxing fan might due to Danny's previous bouts with GGG and Canelo, and the novelty of the identical twins. I doubt the boxing fans could tell the twins apart, but I can. :OhYes:
Who would draw the most PPVs might be Jermall as he is undefeated, and people remember Jacobs lost those bouts. Hmm, I seem to remember them talking about Jacobs vs Jermall a couple years ago. Too bad it doesn't happen yet.

Everyone seems to miss the actual question who's more popular between the names not if popular in the sense of crossover.

So what does it mean to you---better ratings or who people find more likable?

The easy answer is of course none are popular in the sense. It's not really debate about that. I don't think the poster was asking in the general just comparing the exact mentioned guys.

I agree with the person that said less than 2% of Americans even know who any of these guys are.

Yeah when 20 people say the same thing and we all know that this is true no real reason to keep saying the samething. Not having any nuance when making a point pretty redundant.

I think it is hard to say who is more popular with such a small pool of adherents

Why are people in this thread being intentionally obtuse? The question wasn't if either guy is mainstream popular in America. Its who is more popular than the other. BTW the answer is easy, its the Charlo brothers. Both have biggee social media followings and also I asked my friends and they were somewhat familiar with the Charlo twins.

(they are casuals, they know Joshua, Canelo, Wilder, Fury, Pac, May, Spence jr, Loma, Charlo twins and Ryan garcia)

Most of the dudes saying neither is known still comment one who is more poopular , there are lots of answers to that question, not sure what you and our boi worldy are going on about, so what if people bring up that neither may be that popular overall anyway, is that hurtful or something lol

In the US in general nobody knows who any boxers are since only 500k people follow the sport in a country of 328 million

However among those 500k boxing fans, segmented further to be just the black fans, the charlos are more widely known and popular

Charlos have about 100k more Instagram followers than jacobs and they are on network tv not dazn

I haven’t payed attention to the ratings....I’d say Jacobs is due to being in the bigger fights and having been around longer. Canelo fight is a lottery win in terms of money and exposure.

People are clearly saying the same thing boxing isn't popular in the US and the fact that I think the person ask the question who was MORE popular BETWEEN the two comparison not in terms of are they popular we all seem to know the answer to that.

Not really most of the post have some type of mention of the general sense. Again we know boxing is not popular really has nothing to do with who is more popular between the two not in comparison to boxing or any other fighter as a whole. Seem pretty simple to answer without all that "neither guy is know" fact when it comes to outside of boxing.

More are comparing the overall popularity which is universally agreed upon. That really has nothing to do with question. WE ALL KNOW THERE NOT MAINSTREAM POPULAR. It's not up for debate but most posters seem to mentioned it like its not known.

So what if it's mentioned? It relates to popularity. If you cant see all the Charlo vs Jacobs comparisons in this thread you might need new glasses bruh :maybe:
