What Super-Fights are actually out there?

Teofimo Lopez vs Devin Haney
Crawford vs Ennis
Inoue vs Nick Ball
Beterbiev vs Benavidez
Bivol vs Benavidez
Ennis vs Murtazaliev ( if Murtazaliev got his profile raised beforehand and they built up to it)

 

Usyk vs Opetai
Crawford vs Boots ( 160 )

 

Remind me when Uysk last fought?

 

I don't know about comercially, nor is it a path I want to explore because you have so many dumb people out there with more money than sense that'd pay to watch a misfits show. Ryan Garcia, Jake Paul, Andrew Tate etc, these are the guys that'll probably do the million + buys.

From a boxing fan's perspective there are many fights I'd still like to see be made in the next 12-18 months (although some involve moving weight classes).

Still wanna see Tank Shakur. Wanna see Benavidez Bivol, Beterbiev Opetaia, Ball Inoue, Parker Usyk, Sheeraz Canelo and Boots Vergil.

 

Already happened. It was epic

 

Usyk Vs Fury 3
Fury Vs AJ
Jake Paul Vs Tommy Fury 2
Hughie Fury Vs Ituama 2 after Hughie wins their first bout

 

That's a lot of pay per view buys. I don't know if anyone can reach that. Maybe Tyson vs Paul could have if it was PPV.

Fury vs AJ is the only one I'm thinking of. Problem is I can never figure out what numbers to trust when it comes to PPV buys these days.

 

Surely we need at least a trilogy?

 

I'm up for it, will be quick. Though I don't know what happened to Babic

 

For Canelo you have to somehow count in the beer money as well. The beer companies basically do the PPV buy for the entire country of Mexico, I believe, and sponsor his fights to be on standard network broadcasts.

 

Russian ring girls >>> whatever nonsense they keep doing in the UK with dudes in costumes.

 

It’s a good fight to be sure but I don’t know if it’s really a mega fight as Parker doesn’t have too much popularity internationally.

But he’s very deserving.

 

I honestly think Bivol won both fights clear as day, Beterbiev sucks.

 

Ryan Garcia vs Jake Paul

 

I'd like to see:

Kabayel-Usyk
Parker-Usyk
Wilder-Joshua
Dubois-Parker
Dubois-Wardley
Dubois-Itauma
Parker-Joshua II
Chisora-Zhang
Bakole-Itauma
Torrez-Anderson
Itauma-Anderson
Hrgovic-Chisora
Hrgovic-Dubois II (with an honest ref who stops Dubois from head butting)
Hrgovic-Joshua
Hrgovic-Parker
Ortiz-Zhang (senior HW title)
Joyce-Makhmudov
Vianello-Anderson
Kabayel-Parker
Jalolov-Vianello
Jalolov-Torrez
Jalolov-Anderson

There are many, many interesting HW matchups that could be made, if promoters and their boxers were willing.

I've been wanting to see that fight for years.

But it seems Tyson "Belly" Fury is terrified of Joshua, even though AJ is past his best and was brutally KOed last year. The fight will never happen.
