    I'm a bit bored at work guys so excuse me for piling in on the new topics, but thought I'd get the conveyor belt on this side of the forums moving a little faster if that's ok! :banana::banana:

    So as the thread title reads, mostly for the British fans out there who might only tune into boxing when there's a domestic grudge match on or those who don't pay much attention to boxing outside of the UK, which are your top 5 match makers for the next 12 months that you wanna see?

    For me in no particular order;

    Taylor Catterall 2 (want to see a robbery put right)
    AJ Joyce (Bragging rights, Olympian v Olympian)
    Benn v Eubank (legacy fight, fighter's son v fighter's son - don't grill me for this 1)
    Riakhpore v Okolie (purely to hopefully see Okolie get KO'd)
    Yarde v Buatsi (one I feel British boxing needs)

    Tommy Fury vs Idris Virgo
    The People vs Philip Schofield

    I'll pay for the Schofield PPV. Worrying undercard with naive young fellas wanting to get into media...

    My 5:

    Riakpohre v Okolie
    Fury v Joshua
    Allen v Wardley (massively biased towards Allen despite him not earning his shot)
    Arthur v Richards
    Joe Hayden v an Area Champ (lovely lad, consummate pro)

    I think it's mainly wanting to see Riakphore fight, and I worry CBS would get beat by Riak and I like CBS hence my weird choice!

    I cannot believe people are choosing their dream domestic fights and are including Okolie. Do you have eyes?!!

    I reckon Chisora wins the 8th and 9th after Fury comes in 5 stone overweight. By then Fury would’ve still kept the title hostage so Chisora would become the oldest world champion in history aged 72.

    Have heard Fury and Chisora are aiming to beat the Rise of The Footsoldier franchise with the number of sequels for the fans
