Which foreign boxer would you most like to see box in the UK in 2016?

Post by Cholo_cws »

Once upon a time we'd regularly see the very best boxers in the world on these shores. That's not the case these days so (and following on from deadpan's thread) given the choice who would you like to see over here in 2016?... and against whom? Just pick one.

Yeah Gonzalez against Tete would be a dream for me and if Frank got it on in London I'd be there 100%. Brook v Bradley is definitely choice no.2

Pac vs Khan and Bradley vs Brook in a double header at Wembley.
That might even be better than Brook and Khan fighting eachother.

Its crazy how Americans pay that kind of money for there PPV's, i'm sure Cotto v Canelo wont be far off that much.

I like the way you think :TU:

I was reading the Liverpool Echo yesterday and Boomer said that his next fight will be a "full blown war" (he has never said that before ....).

He also said that a win (against a bloke ranked 30 below him) would set him up for a world title shot in the New Year - not sure how that works ?

Seeing Broner getting smacked hard in the mouth for 12 rounds, losing his belt and generally being heckled from the moment he arrived at Heathrow....might be mildly satisfying.

GGG without question.

Ideally against Froch (probably the best fight that could be made in boxing currently) but against anyone would do.

Would love too see Andy Lee vs Gennady Golovkin over here, and wouldn't mind seeing Quigg (if he comes through against Frampton) fight Nonito Donaire.
