    It’s great seeing Okolie - Chamberlain go at it. Two unbeaten British prospects.

    I’d love to see the following this year.

    Khan - Brook.
    Both men are looking to cash out. Both with Hearn now, there’s absolutely no reason why this shouldn’t happen.

    Crolla - Flanagan
    Terry needs this to boost his profile. If Flanagan is bringing another world title match to the table for Crolla how can he refuse?

    Yarde - Buglioni
    They use the WBO rankings as something to try and make this fight not worth the while for Yarde but it is. British title and Buglioni is ranked higher than anyone Yarde has ever fought. Yarde would come away with some credibility for once if he dispatched of him Buglioni.

    Dubois - Gorman
    I think this would be a great fight. One I see Gorman edging at this moment in time so that’s why it probably won’t happen. Both are young and could bounce back from any result. It would be great for each fighters development.

    Smith v Groves/Eubank jr
    Get past Braemer and there’s a fantastic clash in the final against either fighter.
    Degale vs the losing semi finalist would be good and Fielding - Cox would be another great SMW clash.

    Sam Eggington - Liam Williams
    Both coming off losses and need to get their career back on track. All or nothing.

    Robbie Davis jr - Ohara Davies
    Robbie had a lot of problems last time out outside of the ring. Now he should have a clear head and avenge his defeat against Syrowatka on March 31st. What a fight this would be. Ohara Davies vs a scouser after all that’s went on!

    Barry Awad - Reece Belloti
    This would be a great fight. Frank has got the featherweight division boxed off at the minute but these two are the best of the rest and both with MR so could easily be done down the line.

    Anymore?

    Fury vs Joshua would be the obvious one. As long as Fury isn't totally finished.

    Khan v Josh Kelly.
    Luke Campbell v Josh Taylor at 140lb.

    I couldn't think of anything worse than watching Crolla v Flanagan by the way.

    I think Taylor vs Kelly at 147 in the future could be a fantastic fight.

    Josh Taylor vs Jack Catterall.

    I don't know if this one has any potential of happening. Maybe Taylor's team think he's past British level now, but personally I still think it's a good fight.
