(List) The Best Fight That Could Happen in Each Weight Class

Here is a list of the best fight that could happen in each weight class from welterweight to heavyweight. Not even one has happened, nor will it probably ever.


Heavyweight: Wlad vs Fury (Wlad prefers to fight cab driver Alex Leapai, who has done nothing of note in boxing, rather than fight Fury for a huge payday)

Cruiserweight: Yoan Pablo Hernandez vs Marco Huck (their common trainer said the fight will never happen)

Light heavyweight: Stevenson vs Kovalev (Adonis wants no part of Kovalev)

Super middleweight: Froch vs Groves 2 (Froch refuses to fight Groves again)

Middleweight: Golovkin vs Martinez or Quillin (the top middleweights are all ducking GGG)

Light middleweight: Saul Alvarez vs Erislandy Lara (Alvarez has been ducking Lara for years now)

Welterweight: Mayweather vs Pacquiao (it's clear the promotors do not want this to happen)


Now, at the lower weight classes, the best fights do happen:

Light welterweight: Here the best fight actually happened (Garcia vs Matthysse).

Lower divisions: Here the best fights also have happened, like Rigondeaux vs Donaire, Mikey Garcia vs Salido and JuanMa, and many others.

 

Garcia-Provodnikov is a good fight, but Erislandy Lara would be a tougher fight for Alvarez than a fading Cotto.
