    1. Spence-Crawford
    Would be interesting to see where their levels are, finally.

    2. Lopez-Lomachenko II
    Loma deserves a rematch, and this fight gives the up-and-comers time to develop further.

    3. Fury-Joshua
    Not a fan of either, and it looks like this one is likely to happen, so it's not as far up on the list. Would be massive for boxing if they get it right, though.

    4. Ioka-Estrada/Gonzalez
    I think Ioka's done enough to get a direct shot at the winner.

    5. Nietes-Gonzalez
    One of my favorite active fighters against hard-luck contender, Israel Gonzalez.

    6. Haney-Garcia/Campbell
    A good step-up, even if it's not against the very best.

    7. Taylor-Prograis II
    This would do more to establish/cement the current king at light welterweight than a unification would, in my opinion.

    8. Lopez-Davis
    A fight between two super-talents is a good fallback if Teofimo is really adamant about not giving Loma a rematch.

    9. Crawford-Porter
    Failing my top pick, I'd settle for a Crawford-Porter encounter. It would open the door to other cross-promotional fights at the weight, at the very least.

    10. Hunter-Povetkin/Whyte
    If I had my way, I'd have Povetkin face Hunter next. Povetkin-Whyte II wouldn't give us any new information; I'd rather Whyte fought someone like Wilder.

    What? Was the first one just not torturous enough for you? I think you may very well be a sadomasochist.:lol:

    I didnt know who either were until you gave me a list of switch hitters to look into. So I only caught the first fight in full once recently and thought it was entertaining. Close fight in my books too. Plus I'm a fan of Galahad now and think he can avenge that loss.

    Not likely. This might be good:) fight but does not look that WBC might prefer gave Briedis any chance.
    Makabu also does not looks that might generate enough money for this Briedis.
    WBC story with Briedis: Bellew fought 37 y.o dude instead of opponent in Briedis who then was Bellew's mandatory.
    WBC had removed their belt short time before fight Glowacki vs Briedis.
    WBC approved fight Makabu vs Durodola ( guy already stopped in distance by the same Briedis ).

    Also WBO fight Okolie vs Briedis does not look possible: WBO had ordered to conduct immediate rematch Glowacki vs Briedis despite they knew about contractual obligations with WBSS and cos this with Dorticos.

    Alphabet letter orgs and their belts sometimes are joke.
    Octopus had get instead of World tittle shot vs Glowacki some journeyman and still intercontinental WBO tittle.
    Now most likely Glowacki is enough old and these delays, so most likely we will see out of prime Glowacki vs Okolie and if Okolie will walk till end of fight, he will win at least via decision. :nonono
