      Zhilei Zhang- Whilst I don’t think he’s necessarily a huge threat to the Fury-Usyk winner, he had two very good stoppage wins over Joyce and I felt he beat Hrgovic too. He’s definitely earned a shot.

      Richard Riakporhe- Had a really frustrating 2023 with title shots falling through but remains a big threat to all the champions IMO.

      David Benavidez- Canelo needs to fight this man. Simple as that.

      Vasyl Lomachenko- Definitely on the slide but deserves another crack after getting jobbed against Haney. He’d be a nice scalp for Shakur too.

      Otabek Kholmatov- Looked sensational against Ward, no surprise Wood is vacating and moving up to 130.

      Feel free to post your own…


      Kholmatov/Ford is supposedly coming soon, so he won't have to wait much longer. You mentioned Riakporhe, but isn't it partially his fault that he hasn't had a title shot yet? That's why I didn't list him or Buatsi.

              Raymond Muratalla whose going to be gunning for the WBO belt against William Zepeda or Denys Berinchyk as primary options according to Robert Garcia.

              David Benavidez against Canelo Alvarez after fighting two ranked opponents for the WBC belt this year. (If he beats Andrade I mean)

              Ruben Villa against a more experienced Luis Alberto Lopez for the IBF title (Venado lost in their first match). A young 23 year old Villa had been derailed by an upcoming Navarrete and has been unactive for more than two years until 2022.

                He was meant to fight Goulamirian in France which fell through due to promotional issues for the Champion I believe, then he was rumoured to fight Opetaia but then he signed with Matchroom making the fight a lot more difficult to make.

                  Strong list.
                  I'd add Stanionis, Lubin and Ohara Davies as fighters looking almost certain to get a shot soon. Nick Ball also, and Shabaz Masoud once Inoue departs 122.

                  A few outsiders, but all I think could potentially get a 2024 title shot at 160; Elijah Garcia, Ammo Williams and Hamzah Sheeraz. All fairly exciting fighters.

                    I’m really looking forward to Ball-Dogboe next weekend. Think that’s a great test to see how good Nick really is.

                    Gutted Sheeraz-Williams got called off, that was a really good step up fight too IMO.

                      For me, I'd add...

                      Nakatani vs Jason Moloney at 118, as Nakatani seems to not be able to set up an unification fight in 115 to save his life and after he destroyed his brother, it will make a decent revenge fight.
                      Nery vs Inoue at 122 will be nice (especially in USA) but if not, I'd also take a Sam Goodman vs Inoue at 122 but that will more likely be in Japan if it happens.
                      Fulton vs Figueroa (assuming he gets raised from Interim status) at 126, as it was brewing before Inoue decided to come up and take Fulton at 122.
                      Reiya Abe to actually get a shot at a title for 126 before Inoue comes up, even if he doesn't win at least he deserves a chance to attempt.
