Who were the last boxing household names? Floyd Mayweather and Manny Pacquiao? And I'm not sure their fame has ever matched Tyson's. Haven't heard about them in years.

Honestly the only UFC/MMA people I know or heard of are ones that made it big elsewhere. Rousey, Lesnar, Shafir, McGregor, I guess Punk when he tried twice?
