Ok, so you can make 5 matches for this year but not including any fighter more than once what are they?
Mine are -
Lomachenko-Garcia I think this is a stylistic nightmare for Garcia but it would be for all the marbles and a truly legacy defining fight. Two consensus elite p4p hall of fame bound guys in their primes.
Crawford-Spence A better and more dangerous match-up than the above and a real superstar making fight. I like Crawford big but Spence is a bad man.
Joshua-Wilder 2 unbeaten heavies, 4 belts, huge punchers, both vulnerable. In addition to the getting the annoying back and forth from their fans out the way. Could end at any moment.
Hurd-Charlo 154 unification, a great blend of styles and sure to get down and dirty by the middle rounds.
Rungvisai-Estrada II I usually am not into re-matches but being a big Estrada fan and having felt it looked like he had the measure at the end after not letting his hands go enough I think this could make an even better re-match and set up a classic series.
Yeah the politics is still the obstacle. Maybe we can get the all Canadian unfication instead? Stevenson-Beterbiev.
There are talks of Bellew-Ward. I think its going down.
You know what? I'm surprised I missed Stevenson vs. Beterbiev in this thread ( maybe I missed a post) -- yeah, thats a great fight!
Yeah these the big ones. Personally the progression of Josh Taylor is what excites me, ****ing Postol and WBSS have me salivating, kid gloves are off
Edit: Loeffler said today Superfly III, South California, Sep 8th. Hoping Rungvisai/Estrada II Main Event
Right I'm my doorstep and I'm one of the groomsmen at a wedding that night so can't even watch it on TV. FML.
Hahaha! thanks man! I get plenty of Red-K for it! they feel a way about Stevenson -- Makes me laugh really!
I'm thinking we see Kovalev vs. Bivol maybe first as HBO has apparently started to build that unification up. I think they are going to do anything to avoid losing out on another big unification like in 2015 ; the network really needs a elite fight -- the boxing on HBO has been trash.
I will still watch Stevenson-Kovalev but its got to happen soon because both are very old for this, especially Stevenson.

Is put that at the top but it's already signed so didn't include it. That's gonna be a battle and a very close, hard fight.
Yeah, that's fair. I actually made a sub, but you could put any of those other 2 back in if we took out Gassiev/Usyk. I also have a random desire to see Beterbiev vs Kudryashov at 200lbs
