    Nothing doing really in the first half of the year? Things have wound down a little bit now so presumably we'll the BFOTY in September-December, but what have been the best fights this year so far fought in Britain between two British? Where is this year's Eggington/Cheeseman, Williamson/Cheeseman, Wood/Conlan going to come from?

    I enjoyed Lopez doing a number on Conlan and that is the highlight for me so far this year.

    2023 has been a shocker.

    I know but always good to see British passport holder Conlan stiffed.

    Terrible spectacle but for the outcome Billam-Smith beating Okolie is the highlight for me so far.

    Obviously it’s going to come from AJ vs Whyte. It’s an absolutely massive, massive, massive fight apparently (did I mention it’s massive?) and the whole of the UK is going stop still and watch it.

    Tell you what, it might be a giggle.

    That said, let's try and avoid AJ/Fury trashing in this thread shall we?

    I’m trying to work out who you have less time for. Conlan or DAZN?

    Cryus Pattinson Chris Jenkins, Joe Cordina Rakhimov, and Yarde Beterbiev the top 3 in that order for me.
