    Cruiserweight division is full of intriguing fights. The division never fails to deliver.

    I'd like to see Gassiev, Usyk (providing Mchunu doesn't pull off the unthinkable), Glowacki, Huck, Breidis, Bellew, Dorticos, Vlasov.

        Heavyweight: Like Super Six, with Fury, Wilder, Joshua, Ortiz, Wladimir and Parker.

        Light Heavyweight: 4 Man Tournament, with Ward, Kovalev, Stevenson and Beterbiev.

        Middleweight: 4 Man Tournament, with Golovkin, Canelo, Saunders and Jacobs.

        Along with a few others, but you got the point.
        HW JMW MW and WW FW I think boxing is loaded with fights and tbh I'd never thought I'd say this,but Showtime is killing it and HBO has had a terrible yr..Showtime is trying to get them done I don't know wtf is HBO is doing??

          No Erislandy?

          But yeah, JMW would be ideal for this kinda thing as there's no real standout right now, but a loada guys who could all be competitive with each other. Furthermore the majority are fighting under the Haymon banner and are US based so there's little to stop it happening.

          SMW would be a good one too, but most of the top guys seem to be fighting each other already, or planning to, so there's little need.

            Lol I typed "La", then went back and deleted it.

            Lara has pissed me off in so many ways. Especially in the Canelo fight when he had an opportunity to actually "fight" and win the match. The rest of his fights literally put me to sleep. I forget which one it was, I think it was the Vanes fight. Me and the family tried to stay up to watch his match. I kid you not, no more than 15 minutes into the match, they were sound asleep.

            Outside of Lara vs GGG, I have no urge to see him.

              CW : Usyk, Gassiev, Lebedev, Huck, Gowaski, Briedis(?)

              175 : Ward, Kovalev, Stevenson, Beterbiev

              168 : Jack, Degale, Groves, Smith, Ramirez

              160 : Canelo, GGG. Jacobs, BJS

              154 : Lara, Charlo, Andrade , Canelo (?)

              147 : Pacquiao, Thurman/Garcia, Brook, Bradley, Spence(?)

              135 : Linares, Zlaticanin/Garcia, Flanagan, Easter

              126 : Frampton/LSC , Russel Jr/ Selby

              115 : Gonxalez, Inoue, Cuadras, Estrada, Yafai(?)

                I don't know if a Strawweight tournament has been discussed but, maybe it's time for a 105lbs Strawweight unification tournament between the title holders to create a Strawweight Undisputed Champion.

                1st fight from Thailand:
                WBC Champ. Chayaphon Moonsri A.K.A. - Wanheng Menayothin Vs. WBA Champ Thammanoon Niyomtrong A.K.A. - Knockout CP Freshmart

                2nd fight from either Mexico or Japan:
                Rematch: IBF Champ Jose Argumedo Vs. WBO Champ Katsunari Takayama

                Winner of those two fights meet in a final fight, for all the titles in the land should also include Lineal title or Ring Magazine Championship.

                Difficulty with making these fights is obviously the promoters, I know Thailand promoters don't like to risk their fighters in unification matches, so that would be the biggest hurdle.

                Who ever promotes this tournament could present an insensitive like a 3 million dollar bonus to the winner of this tournament.
