    My ranking would probably look like this

    1. Canelo vs Gennady Golovkin
    2. Andre Ward/Kovalev winner vs Adonis Stevenson
    3. Anthony Joshua vs Deontay Wilder
    4. Errol Spence Jr vs Terrence Crawford (the most unlikely of this list)
    5. Carl Frampton vs Guillermo Rigondeaux

    I think Joshua's, Uysk's, Kovalev's, Smith's & GGG's teams will come to the rescue before The Can Man terminates them.

    It's a severe indictment of Stevenson that I have little-to-no interest in this fight. I could pick 20 fights that I'd rather see.

    If I had to pick only 5 fights I'd focus on just two divisions so we'd get a clear picture of who the best is. I'd focus on LHW and HW.

    1) Ward/Kovalev winner vs Stevenson would be my first choice.

    I'd love to see LHW division getting some momentum. Beterbiev vs Ward/Kovalev loser would be nice too.

    2) Wilder vs Povetkin

    I was pumped for that fight when it was supposed to happen, I'd love to actually see it.

    3) Wladimir Klitschko vs Joshua.

    I like the idea of this fight

    4) Wilder/Povetkin winner vs Klitschko/Joshua winner.

    Let's see who the top dog in the division is.

    5) Tyson Fury vs Luis Ortiz.

    If Tyson Fury gets his **** together then this is a fun fight to make.
