Sadiq Khan wants London to start staging the world's leading fights and believes one between Kell Brook and Amir Khan is overdue.
The Mayor of London is keen for the city to continue developing its profile within boxing.
Khan's brother Sid is head coach at the ABC Boxing Club in Earlsfield, where the Olympic silver medallist Joe Joyce trains. He witnessed the impact made by last month's world middleweight title fight between Brook and Gennady Golovkin at The 02 Arena, and wants similarly high-profile events to follow.
The British boxing scene is presently thriving and in recent years London has held Golovkin-Brook as well as both of Anthony Joshua's IBF heavyweight title fights and the memorable rematch at Wembley between Carl Froch and George Groves.
Khan believes it remains capable of more, however, and has urged his namesake Amir and his domestic rival Brook to finally meet.
"London was the perfect host for the unmissable fight between the undisputed pound-for-pound king in Gennady Golovkin and our very own Kell Brook," said Khan, 46, a guest at the 2016 Boxing Writers' Club dinner.
"Both for our city, and the thousands of boxing fans in London, staging the best fights is something we could all get used to.
"I want to see the biggest sporting and cultural events staged here in London because we not only have world-class venues to stage top-class boxing, but we also have the globe's best fight fans.
"London is open to the best talent in the world and that is why I am keen to see another super-fight in the capital and what better one to start with than arch rivals Amir Khan and Kell Brook both in the ring at Wembley Stadium?
"London is neutral territory and it is a contest the British public and London fight fans would love to see."
Welsh middleweight Liam Williams was named the best young fighter of 2016 by the Boxing Writers' Club.
The 24-year-old, who is trained by Gary Lockett, becomes the latest winner of an award also given to Ken Buchanan, Ricky Hatton and Joe Calzaghe, among others.
