    Boxing is declining and the most competitive fights don't seem to get made any more. But if you can wave a magic wand and make a fight per division, what do you pick?

    Here's mine.

    HW: Usyk Vs Fury

    CW: Opetai Vs Okolie

    LHW: Beterbiev Vs Bivol

    SMW: Canelo Vs Benavidez

    MW: Golovkin Vs Munguia

    LMW: Charlo Vs Zoo

    WW: Spence Vs Crawford

    LWW: Taylor Vs Catteral

    LW: Haney/Loma Vs Davis/Garcia

    SFW: Valdez Vs Cordina/Rakhimov

    FW: Lara/Wood Vs Vargas

    SBW: Fulton/Inoue Vs Akhmadaliev

    BW: Inoue Vs anyone

    SFLW: Estrada Vs Gonzalez (again)

    FLW: Edwards Vs Martinez

    LFLW: Teraji Vs Gonzalez

    STW: Obvious choice

    Donaire Vs Rigo is a bit out there. But I have a good level of intrigue for it. Bit like Golovkin Vs Lara.

    Beterbiev v Smith is either signed or very close to signed, what % chance do you give Smith? I think I may be favoring him to beat a 38 year old Beterbiev.

    I kind of am too, Callum definitely has a puncher's chance.

    Which would be an absolute catastrophe considering we wouldn't get Bivol V Beterbiev, but Bivol V Smith is a better stylistic matchup.

    Fury - Usyk
    Goulamarian - Opetai
    Beterbiev - Bivol
    Alvarez - Benavidez
    Alimkhanuly - L Smith
    Charlo - Tszyu
    Ennis- Stanionis
    Taylor - Lopez
    Lomachenko - Davis
    Wood- Conlan 2

    don't wanna see Okolie or Haney versus anyone the boring ****s. Bored of wanting and waiting for Spence-Crawford now, don't care anymore. And **** the dwarf weighclasses
