    Don't get me wrong, I want to see that too, but something about the giant caveman Valuev vs the tubby beast Peter is so intriguing. Both are lumbering, and it'd be great to see if the heavy handed Peter could wing overhand shots off the chin of Valuev, or if Valuev could keep Peter off him with the jab and that's straighter shots. It'd be a fun fight to watch.

    Haye isn't ready for Wlad yet, rather see him win a fight against a good HW first before being fed to Wlad. Calzaghe v Pavlik is interesting, but seeing as Pav is fighting at MW and Calzaghe's last fight was at LHW it's a stretch right now.

    We are already getting Marg vs Cotto, which is the true WW fight I want to see, but seeing as it's going down.. I chose the next best fight.

    Heavyweight
    Klitshcko vs Peter or the winner of Chagaev/Valuev. Lets unify those belts ASAP

    Cruiserweight
    Cunningham vs Enzo Mac. So I can see whether Cunningham was worthy of Haye

    Lightheavyweight
    Bernard Hopkins vs Chad Dawson. Because I think he still can.

    Super Middle Weight
    Joe Calzaghe vs Kelly Pavlik

    Middleweight
    Kelly Pavlik vs Abraham

    Jr. Middleweight
    Joachim Alcine vs Vernon Forrest. So my boy can finally get some recognition after destroying a big American name.

    WW
    winner of Cotto/Margarito vs Floyd

    Jr. WW
    Herman Ngoudjo against the winner of Paulie Malignaggi vs Hatton

    LW (my favorite division right now)
    Pacquiao vs Diaz against the winner of Campbell vs Casa II to unify all the belts.

    At the same time JMM vs Guzman against the winner of Diaz vs Katsidis. And the winner of that could fight the champ after.

    SFW
    Gamboa vs Valero

    FW
    John vs Linares of course.

    Jr. FW
    Steve Molitor vs Israel Vasquez

    Bantamweight
    i have no clue, this division is boring. I would like Marquez to move back down and fight Sidorenko

    Super Flyweight
    Fernando Montiel vs Cristian Mijares

    Flyweight
    Nonito Donaire vs Daisuke Naito

    Jr. Flyweight
    Solis vs Calderon

    Everyone has pretty good lists (some are obvious choices)

    One I would like to see is Mundine vs Pavlik or Abraham IF he can get down to 160.

    I'll copy the one I made this morning in another thread:

    HW: Haye-Povetkin. CW champ with sick power vs. very busy Olympic gold medallist for the no1 challenger status. Very good fight.

    CW: Cunningham-Alexeev. Current no1 champ vs. very promising, sick punching prospect. I have no idea who to pick.

    LHW: Dawson-Johnson II would be nice and fair. Hopkins-Jones: old men's fight no1., age combined 80+, and still a very interesting fight for the hardcore fans. There's still time to make this!

    SMW: Calzaghe-Pavlik: MW champ vs. SMW champ, somebody's 0... Andrade vs. Bika: fans' ultimate slugfest.

    MW: Pavlik-Abraham: the only fight in MW that matters. Iron chins and KO still guaranteed.

    LMW: Forrest-Mayorga III: bring it on, why the hell not?

    WW: Cotto-Margarito: if Floyd is 'retired', let champ no1 fight champ no2.

    LWW: Hatton-Malignaggi: charisma, popularity, different styles, no1 vs. no2, should be interesting.

    LW: Casamayor-Campbell II: Old men's no2, would be great for the legitimate undisputed status.

    SFW: PacMan-JMM III: unfinished business, guaranteed slugfest, what more do you want? Valero vs. Gamboa: well, as long as it lasts, it's another FOTY match-up...

    FW: John vs. Linares: division World Champion vs. best alphabet champ.

    SBW: Vazquez-Arce: this should happen, biggest fight below 126. Who said Mexicans can't fill a soccer stadium anymore?

    BW: Marquez-Gonzalez: slugfest for the ages.

    SFW: Mijares-Montiel: simply the only big fight left in the division - and it's a superfight!

    FW: Naito-K. Kameda: division no1 vs. the lot better brother of very dirty and unsuccessful challenger, Japan's DLH-Mayweather.

    LFW/SW: Calderon-Solis: the best match-up for the smallest men, winner gets p4p status.
