    If you had the pick from all British boxers to build a card regardless of promotional politics etc. What fights would you have on it? Let's say you can make 8 fights for a mega domestic show... I'm having:

    Joshua vs Fury main event (of course)

    Buatsi vs Yarde

    H.Fury vs Joyce

    Brook vs Khan (let's say they both have good performances before it)

    Gorman vs Dubois

    Yafai vs Edwards

    Ryder vs Eubank or Degale (whoever wins their match)

    Ritson vs Coyle (fun fight)


    It pains me not to have Josh Taylor on my card since he's my favourite boxer and fellow countryman, but none of the domestic light-welters are enough of a challenge for him. Flanagan is decent I suppose but he doesn't make the cut to be on this card. If Luke Campbell moved up in weight, maybe that could be a fight.

    I would just do without Ritson v Coyle fight -- Ritson would stop him quickly

    I would maybe add in Connor Benn vs Garton (war) or Josh Kelly

    Plus Fowler v Cheeseman

    Okolie Whyte would be a harsh fight to make right now! One that many would enjoy though given the former's lack of popularity and that exact reason.

    Joshua, chisora, dubois, allen

    Vs

    Fury, Whyte, gorman, price


    In a 4 man tag match

    Rules are if a man gets knocked out he leaves then the remains guys keep fighting till only one is left. No points only knockouts till one remains.

    It goes as long as it goes but a 10 minute toilet break and sandwiches, drinks etc are allowed every hour.

    Might be a long night with Dave Allens chin, cant see past pricey being the first man out lol

    Fury v Joshua (main event)
    Brook v Liam Smith
    Warrington v Galahad
    Joyce v Whyte
    Campbell v Selby
    Yafai v Edwards
    Smith v DeGale
    Khan v Taylor at 147ib.

    Not an all British fight but would to see Katie Taylor fight Chantelle Cameron, be a great clash of styles. Fight would need to be at LW.

    Chisora v Price., David Haye and Tony Bellew on commentary for the main event.

    Fury v Joshua , Big John Fury and Eddie Hearn on commentary

    Khan v Brook , Prince Nassem on commentary

    Eubank Jnr v Smith , Froch ,Groves and Eubank Snr on commentary

    Joyce v Whyte

    In that order

    Obviously War Chisora v Oh Dear Pricey is worthy of main event.

    Price, Allen and Prince Patel are a must on such card.

    Joyce vs Dubois

    Warrington vs Frampton 2

    Edwards vs Yafai

    In order;

    Dubois vs Gorman
    Allen vs Price
    Kelly vs Benn
    Chisora vs Joyce
    Whyte vs H. Fury
    Buatsi vs Yarde
    Callum Smith vs Degale
    Saunders vs Eubank II
    Brook vs Khan
    Joshua vs Fury

    Some will have to meet at catchweights to make the fights, and some are total mismatches - but would be great to watch nonetheless... Hopefully a couple of these can happen in the near future, but I doubt it!
