Comments Thread For: A Realistic Wish List for the Year Ahead

Instead of the Pac Broner winner getting Mayweather why not Keith Thurman since he's THE WBA champion. At 140 how about Linares- Prograis that would be a good matchup. 160 how about Canelo vs Andrade for the simple fact Andrade has the personality to sell the fight. Jacobs is boring personality wise he should fight Charlo instead winner gets Canelo-Andrade winner. 168 I wanna see Benavidez vs Zurdo..... Heavyweight I wanna see AJ vs Miller, Whyte vs Ortiz and Wilder vs Fury 2... FW I wanna see LSC vs Gary Russell Jr probably the most!!

From what I understand Chris Sanigar won a second purse bid and has the rights to promote the Legrand fight for the EBU title.
However, Selby will instead choose to fight in a WBC final eliminator against Julio Cesar Martinez.

I did hear that, but bloody hell the guy looks to be treading water right now. Hopefully the BBBofC strip him & nominate Jay Harris Vs Charlie Hoy for the vacant British title!

I’d love to see Charlie Hoy get an opportunity, he’s a really good kid with a good story. He was meant to get a fight with Sunny Edwards but it fell through for whatever reason.
Harris’ British title opportunity is long overdue as well

Selby is well above British level he should vacate, as much as I like Charlie Edwards, Selby beats him pretty easily IMO. He has no intention of fighting at British level so why hold up the title...

I predict 2019 will be the usual disappointment. 2017 was an exceptional year and lifted boxing fans expectations to unrealistic levels.

Last year bought us crashing down to Earth with lots of bad decisions, mismatches and ducking. Not much really sticks out from last year.

For boxing to be healthy again, we need unification fights at lightweight, middleweight, light heavy and heavyweight.

if we get half that we'll be in good shape. If Al Haymon and Trump are assassinated it will be halcyon days to come.

What's happened to Golovkin? Inoue? Lomachenko? Joshua? I love boxing, but as a fan, you have to be a pessimist otherwise you're an idiot.
