    Which fights do you really want to happen even if the possibility of them happening is slim?

    I'd like to see-

    JWW-
    T. Crawford vs. L. Matthysse
    J. Vargas vs. R. Provodnikov

    WW-
    M. Pacquiao vs. M. Maidana
    K. Brook vs. K. Thurman
    T. Bradley vs. S. Porter
    D. Garcia vs. A. Khan II
    L. Peterson vs. D. Alexander
    C. Algieri vs. R. Guerrero

    JMW-
    F. Mayweather vs. E. Lara (I'd probably fall asleep but Lara would be a difficult fight for him)

    MW- M. Cotto vs. S. Alvarez (and it is actually happening) with the winner to face the winner of G. Golovkin vs. P. Quillin... probably Alvarez vs. Golovkin

    140:

    Matthysse vs. Garcia II (yeah right)
    Crawford vs. Provodnikov (classic boxer vs. puncher)
    Lundy vs. Imam (prove yourself, kid! - or in Hank's case, earn yourself a high enough ranking to get a shot & do something meaningful with it, finally)

    147:

    Matthysse vs. Garcia II (more likely, but still unlikely)
    Brook vs. Thurman (obviously)
    Bradley vs. Khan (long overdue)

    154:

    Lara vs. Kirkland (Once and for all: can the Cuban handle relentless aggression? Can the Mandingo Warrior cope with a pure boxer?)
    J-Rock vs. Martirosyan (time for the easy road to reach its end; possible redemption at stake for the Nightmare)
    Alvarez vs. Charlo (the best pair of young elites, barring maybe J-Rock, in the division)

    160:

    Golovkin vs. Cotto (just get it over with)
    Quillin vs. Lemieux (common opponent in HNN; each is dangerous for the other)
    Saunders vs. Soro (who's the best in Europe??)
