Fights that you want to happen/we should see in 2014

[bigcursedawg]

I think it's ****** to talk about fights that's aren't going to happen. So I'll list the fights I want to see that actuall can happen.

Gonzalez Mares II
Yamanaka Moreno (to see who's really the man at 118)
Cotto Canelo
Trout/Lara winner vs Angulo
Garcia Matthysse II
Peterson/Jean winner vs Provodnikov
Bradley Provodnikov II
Yaegashi/Sosa winner vs Estrada
Yaegashi Ioka II
Yaegashi Gonzalez
Estrada Gonzalez II
Estrada Segura
Broner/Maidana winner vs the Thurman Karass winner
Maidana Soto Karass II
Nietes Fuentes II
Burns Beltran II
Martinez GGG
Quillin Rosado II
Kovalev Stevenson
Khabib Rios, Alvarado or Provodnikov
Rios Alvarado III
Garcia vs Uchiyama, Mendez, or Miura
Uchiyama Miura II (this time it would be a unification)

As you can see I would like to see a lot of rematches.

[VG_Addict]

Floyd vs. Winner of Trout/Lara
Bradley vs. Winner of Broner/Maidana
Kovalev vs. Stevenson
Fury vs. Arreola
Wilder vs. Charr

[Citizen Koba]

Ignoring the promotion/channel rivalries, I'd love to see these fights:

Pacquiao vs Mayweather
GGG vs Mayweather (at 154)
Martinez vs Maywerather (at 154)
GGG vs Martinez
Ward vs Kovalev (at 175)
D.Garcia vs Broner
Thurman vs Broner
Thurman vs D.Garcia
Gamboa vs M.Garcia
Lomachenko vs Rigo (at 126, if Rigo is willing to move up)
Lara vs Canelo
Groves vs Kessler
Fury vs Wilder

Works for me...close to my list. The Groves -Kessler fight works particularly well right now of course and I think makes a really good fight (depending on how much Kessler still wants it of course?).

I also would rather wait til 2015 for Loma - Rigo. Loma needs a little more time in the pro ranks IMO.

You really think it has a chance of happening? Isn't Garcia moving up to 47?

I think these fights need to be made to happen next year, they did a good job of giving us the fights we wanted to see in 2013, and if they follow that in 2014 we should see:

Manny Pacquaio vs Floyd Mayweather .Make it happen Floyd, Floyd is the only one who decides this. We know Pacquaio/Arum want it, do you Floyd? 2014-should be the year of this legendary fight. Your excuses have ran out Floyd, now do you wanna make this fight or not?


Adonis Stevenson vs Sergei Kovalev .If they both win on Sat. What sucks is Adonis is already making reasons not fight Kovalev next (seems like a duck, but whatever).


Mikey Garcia vs Yuri Gamboa .BIG LW fight. Im pretty sure there is nobody that doesn't want to see this fight. So lets see it, 2014.


Carl Froch vs George Groves II .Give the guy his rematch Froch. The first one was a barnburner and Groves deserves it. Of course Froch doesnt wanna be in a fight that challenging again I'm sure, and he'd be smart not to. I wanna see it though.


Wilder vs Stiverne .Would be really interested in this HW fight. I think Stiverne is really good, he impressed me in his win over Arreola and Wilder despite some detractors I feel is the real deal too. The winner should go on to fight Klitschko also.


Gennady Golovkin vs Ward, Martinez, or Quillen .Anyone of these 3 fights would be what I want to see for Golovkin. He might still be far away from the Ward fight, but seeing him against Martinez or Quillen would be great too.


So what are some of yours if you had to name it for 2014??

No... Manny vs Floyd is stale. Its not a challenge for Floyd at this point in their careers. Manny has looked like garbage the last couple years. Bob Arum spoon feeds him Brandon Rios and now suddenly you believe that Manny is back to his old form?

The dude is a shell of himself. Go watch the Rios fight, then watch Prime Manny.
