    Comments Thread For: Spence, Canelo and Briggs (?!?) To Create Lasting 2018 Memories

    By Lyle Fitzsimmons - If you've gotten to this point and aren't happy, it's your own fault. You should have seen it coming last year. As has become early January tradition in this Tuesday morning space, we proactively greet the New Year with a preview of stories other boxing scribes will be reacting to about 12 months from now...

    As long as we get these, no matter the winner. I’m happy.
    GGG vs Canelo
    Mikey vs Loma
    Crawford vs Spence

      These are actually not that farfetched.

        oh lordie, imagine Briggs flattening Fury for the lineal belt

        is Fitz the only writer who PUBLICLY refuses to acknowledge that regular/interim bullshht from the WBA?

        NOTE: Fights previewed are only those involving a sanctioning body's full-fledged title-holder – no interim, diamond, silver, etc. Fights for WBA "world championships" are only included if no "super champion" exists in the weight class.
        impressed

        having three WBA " champs " rack up title " defences " simultaneously..... really is ridiculous

          Loma vs. Garcia will be too lop-sided to be a FOTY candidate. Loma stops him in the 9th, with an exhausted Garcia getting saved by his brother throwing in the towel.

          I do agree with the Spence pick for Fighter of the Year. He may end up getting it if he gets the fights he wants because he's definitely going to batter Peterson and he's clearly better than Thurman and too big for Crawford.

          Briggs vs. Fury would be fun to watch.

            Spence-Crawford is happening in 2018? What exactly has given the writer any hint that this will be the case?

              Exactly what I'd expect from one of the so called experts of our sport.

                Crawford is crafty and may decision Spence with his movement & stance switch.
                No one beats him in Nebraska.
                Mikey whoops Loma any day.

                  Crawford-Spence??? Yes, please....

                  Trip G and C.A. needs to hurry. I am kind of tired of the war of the words on the websites. Either one of these men are awesome boxing standard bearers, but they need a clear winner. I am cheering for Golovkin because I think he is a good humored man who needs the win for his legacy more than Alvarez who has a decade of boxing left in him, but I think both fighters deserve this moment.

                  Loma-Garcia has a very good chance of happening. And I will be ****** excited for it.

                  Fury-Briggs? Wow. The fighter interviews... the face to faces.... the stare downs, the weigh in....

                  The fight may be horrid, but I would pay for everything leading up to it!!

                    I agree with most of the predictions, except fury will destroy briggs & Loma doesn't even fight Mikey let alone beat him. If they do fight mikey by 9 rds to 3.
