    Let's ignore the politics of the sport, the networks, the promoters for a second and assume that we, as fans, could dictate the matches we want to see next year. Who would be your top 3?

    Mine:
    Crawford vs. Spence
    Loma vs. Mikey
    AJ vs. Wilder

    The first two are legitimate P4P tests and would be thrilling fights.

    I know AJ vs. Wilder would be the biggest event on a global scale, but I think AJ crushes him. There are definitely better fights to be made, but boxing taking its rightful place at the top of the global sports tower for a while would be awesome to see.

    Who will be favoutite according to the bookies between Fury and Wilder though?! I felt it was a great fight and there`s a lot to still be decided between these two, Wilder was beat as far I could tell.

    Wilder vs. Fury 2 should have a close line. I can see Wilder as a favorite because he has the power to end it and Fury really doesn't.

    I wouldn't be surprised to get at least 1, if not 2, of the bottom option. I just don't see Mikey ever working with Arum again.

    Crawford Vs. Spence
    Rungvisai Vs. Estrada 2
    Any combination of Bivol/Gvozdyk/Beterbiev.

    I'd watch Inoue fight a Tasty Burger manager.
