    Joyi-Segura would be quality, as would Gonzalez-Joyi. Martinez-Floyd is still a massive fight to be made despite Sergio's lacklustre showing last time; Nishioka-Hasegawa would be massive in Japan. Could be some real big fights for Hopkins too depending on if he steps up/opponents step up.

    Donaire-Arce? What kind of sadist thinks that would be one of the best fights?

    Who the hell would watch Froch vs Dirrell II?

    Even their respective trainers would probably **** off to the bar to spare themselves the boredom.

    Pacquiao vs Marquez III is the obvious omission :deal

    Matthysse vs Maidana would be a belter, could imagine a poor man's Benn vs Eubank kinda fight, with Matthysse pulling out the stoppage in the championship rounds.
