What are some heavyweight matchups you would like to see before the end of 2025?

Usyk - kabayel ( kabayel would agree immediately but usyk will duck )

 

Kabayel vs Bakole would be absolute fire. Guaranteed center ring brawl until one man drops. Has the makings of an instant classic that people are still watching 40 years from now, like Foreman-Lyle.

in a sane world, that fight should top a card and sell good PPV numbers, with both men making 7 figure purses.

 

I do think Kabayel is the biggest danger to Usyk. I might even favor him slightly, via KO. A guy who seems a bit vulnerable to body shots (his whole career, you can find a vid of Beterbiev knocking him down in the amateurs with a body shot), against the meanest body puncher around? Yikes.

I think Dubois or Fury would beat Kabayel. But I think Usyk would be in for it.

 

I agree . That fight will never happen due to reasons you correctly mentioned . Usyk will duck this.

 

Parker vs Kabayel

 

Would on the one hand be a great fight but on the other hand a bit unfair since only one of them can win . Both are great guys and both deserve a title shot so maybe not good idea to smoke up one of them on their way to a world title .

 

I agree. If I was making the fights I would have made Usyk vs Kabayel and Dubois vs Parker.

But we got Usyk vs Dubois now.

I am not their manager. If I was their manager I would maybe go for a soft touch keep busy fight. But like I said I am not their manager I just want to see good fights.

And how is anyone going to deny the Parker vs Kabayel winner a title shot?

Makhmudov vs Chisora,,the skill level would be low about a 3 or 4, but the entertainment value would be off the charts as overhand rights will fly from the opening bell.
