    2016 if you can make any one fight which one would it be

    Excuse my lack of knowledge at lower weight classes but i'll list a few fights that i think captured the imagination of fans on this website.

    so if you had the ability to make any fight this year, which fight would you make.

    personally as you know i am a vivid GGG fan, so for me its Canelo vs. GGG as top fight but not too far down the list it would be GGG vs. Ward.

    what about you?

      GGG vs. Canelo is the most exciting for me. Two guys who know how to punch who will go at each other. Doesn't get any better than that.

      Lomachenko vs. Rigondeaux would be great. They both need serious challenges and they would definitely provide that for one another. I think Loma is high energy along with being smart enough to give Rigo the best fight he's ever had.

      Ward vs. Kovalev should be great, if it can happen. Ward needs to show up and fight somebody first, but I don't think he needs three fights first- probably two would be enough.

          g string/Ward at 168 for me. I still want to see if g string truly is good enough to beat an A list opponent.

                Had it down to Ward-Golovkin or Kovalev-Stevenson

                ... decided to go with Ward-Golovkin, for the simple fact that it answers the biggest question that's facing boxing at the moment: how good is Gennady Golovkin really?

                I think Ward beats the breaks off of him, but if Golovkin can somehow make it through the fight and win, he launches as one of the sport's next biggest star and the world opens up to him.

                Having Ward's scalp on his ledger, after headlining a massive show (in New York or Las Vegas) and picking up a good PPV buyrate (likely not astronomical, but the fight is big enough to get the boxing hype machine going), the Alvarez fight becomes a no brainer for everyone.

                  Estrada vs. Gonzalez on HBO WCB as the main event...I know, unrealistic.

                    I went with that too. Ward would derail the hypetrain.
