    Saw a tweet from Kalle S that they’re going to start announcements soon on this. No news on what divisions or boxers have signed up, but who would you like to see?

    I think featherweight could be a great one, with Frampton, Quigg, LSC, Selby involved, if they signed up of course.

    Superfly and LHW for me.

    Dream picks would be Heavy and Welterweight.

    I have heard bantamweight mentioned by Adam Smith.

    LHW.

    HW could be good further down the line, a fit Fury, Wilder, Joshua...Parker on the comeback trail...

    Andre ward could be tempted to come back for lightheavy. Kovalev might fire it off if he did though.

    Ward would require his own personal judges, referee, boxing commission and all the money! In a neutral fight with neutral judges, referee, boxing commission, Kovalev would beat Ward again!

    Any of them if they're as well matched as the current two have been

    As long as all 4 belts end up around the waist of one man I don’t mind the division...

    If it ends up unifying in any division then I genuinely don't care. LHW would be great with Bivol, Kov, Gvodysk and Beterbiev, although I can't imagine Stevenson in it if he beats Jack. He's quite happy up in Canada, if Jack wins though, I expect he'd be game.

    It's a shame that USTV boycotted the WBSS cruiserweight tournament! Yes, they will boycott Usyk Vs. Gassiev also! They will show women's volley ball though!

    God knows but I know that it should have done more! It was poorly promoted.
