Make 1 fight in each weight class

[BigZ44]

Alright, so we're are at the start of the new year, if you were an all powerful boxing lord and could conjure any fight into existence for 2020 in each weight class, what would you choose?

Here are my picks:

105- Wanheng Menayothin vs Thamanoon Niyomtrong (both undefeated Thai champs)
108- Ken Shiro vs Hiroto Kyoguchi (2 undefeated Jap champs, also really tempted to go Canizales/Alvarado)
112- Julio Cesar Martinez vs Kosei Tanaka (holy ****!)
115- Juan Francisco Estrada vs Donnie Nietes (this was maybe my hardest choice, there is a legit top 7 that could all fight each other but no standout fight now that SSR has fought Choco and Estrada twice)
118- Naoya Inoue vs Guillermo Rigondeaux (Inoue is about to clean this division out, maybe Rigo can make it tough for him?)
122- Emmanuel Navarrete vs Danny Roman (Akhmadaliev could change this one in a few weeks)
126- Josh Warrington vs Gary Russell Jr (more intrigued by this matchup than Stevenson, won't happen though)
130- Oscar Valdez vs Leo Santa Cruz (think Berchelt runs through everyone at this weight, Valdez/LSC would be epic action)
135- Teofimo Lopez vs Gervonta Davis (2 young, homerun hitters, would be sure fireworks. Loma/Haney would be my fight for 2021, just think Haney needs a little more experience)
140- Josh Taylor vs Jose Ramirez (easy)
147- Errol Spence vs Terence Crawford (easy)
154- Julian Williams vs Jermell Charlo (great fight and revenge angle for J-Rock having already fought Jermall)
160- Canelo Alvarez vs Gennady Golovkin (kinda by default, not a lot of great fights that would actually happen at this weight now; thought about Andrade/Charlo and Liam Williams/Derevyanchenko as sleepers)
168- David Benavidez vs Callum Smith (2 giants at the weight with massive power and belts)
175- Dmitry Bivol vs Artur Beterbiev (easy)
200- Yunier Dorticos vs Mairis Briedis (we are getting this in March!)
HW- Deontay Wilder vs Anthony Joshua (still the most exciting fight in boxing)

What do you guys have?

[RJJ-94-02=GOAT]

147 Crawford-Spence
140 Taylor-Ramirez

108 Shiro-Kyoguchi
105 CP Freshmart-Menayothin.

You guys really wana see canelo GGG again dafuq. Two **** fights man why do u want a third. For another razor thin decision win for canelo, controversy. No knockdown or stoppage happening. Golovkin just jabbing and using his face as his defence. Boring

Made total sense last year but I dont think Spence will ever be the same, not any time soon that's for sure.

Good thread bty

[mlac]

i will edit later to fill in the rest but my main ones are:

HW: Simon Kean V David Price
CW: Kudryashov v Ilunga Makabu 2
LHW: Beterbiev V Kovalev


LMW: Sam Eggington V Joe Pigford
WW: Pac V Khan. Khan has spent the last decade calling him out, its the perfect ending, Khan gets Khan'd and Pac rides off into the sunset with a highlight reel KO

140: Taylor V Ramirez

130: Valdez V Joseph Diaz

118: Inoue V Nery.

I think Kudryashov is washed, he went life and death in his last fight with a Czech dude that Pricey and Kuzmin wiped out. Price vs the Grizzly would be epic lol, I still need to see Pricey against Ustinov and Dimitrenko!!

[YoungManRumble]

I don't think I'd change any in your list.

Maybe Oscar Valdez vs Miguel Berchelt @ 130 instead

[Santa_]

105- TBE vs Knockout CP Freshmart

108- Elwin Soto vs Teraji

112- Tanaka vs Martinez

115- Nietes vs Estrada

118- Inoue vs Donaire 2

122- Navarrete vs Rigondeaux

126- Magdaleno vs Stevenson

130- Berchelt vs Valdez

135- Santa Cruz vs Tank

140- Ramirez vs Taylor

147- Pac vs Bud

154- JRock vs Charlo

160- Dervychenko vs GGG 2

168- Canelo vs Benavidez

175- Beterviev vs Bivol

200- Briedes vs Dorticos

Ruiz-Joshua trilogy

[£-4-£]

I agree with most of these, I'd pick:

115: Estrada v Chocolatito 2 (see if Estrada can avenge his defeat, or can Choco become lineal in another division?)
118: Inoue v Casimero (1 vs. 2)
126: LSC v Warrington (1 vs. 2) Leo still ranked 1 at 126, hasn't relinquished his title.
160: GGG v Charlo
175: Pascal v Froch II lol

HW: With AJ fighting his mandatories and Fury/Wilder likely fighting twice, the HW fight I'd like to see would be Whyte v Ortiz.
