Not just the yoof who could do with socials/highlights reels. I could, specifically for boxing. who knows really if Fury is charismatic, given you pay through the nose and they don't offer highlights packages a day or two after like most sport. makes boxing pretty niche for me these days, and i say that as someone who was genuinely quite a fan of it.
another 2000s star not yet mentioned: Lance Armstrong. Loved to a cultish degree both by a certain type of cycling fan and a group to whom he was a health hero, loathed probably equally by those who didn't "believe in miracles". Charisma though? For sure. Virtually singlehandedly (well i guess with his enablers like Phil and Paul and Michele) took road cycling global.
Fury is a conundrum, he sure is an entertainer and maybe charismatic but as I'm biased against any of the fighting "sports"/entertainment he wouldn't be my pick. Fed and Nadal are probably more charismatic in my books and don't seem to court as much controversy.

Hugely disappointing that you see fit to lay any sort of praise on someone who is openly homophobic and sexist. It's 2022. Not 1962.
Early days, but Dani Medvedev could get there charisma-wise. Being Russian could count against him but.
