Fury - Joshua would be a box office blockbuster and absolutely a super fight. Considering that it features the two fighters who beat Wlad, I think it's fair to say that its significance to boxing would be greater than either of those two fights, and also it features two young fighters and thus guarantees the catapulting of a fighter who has many years still to come. It is also a fight between two of the most visible British fighters, so I think it would attract a ton of revenue from British fans, who tend to enjoy all-British match-ups.

Santa Cruz - Rigondeaux would be a fight that I think many people would perceive as close to 50/50 and of great p4p significance. A lot of people think Rigondeaux is better than Santa Cruz p4p, but Santa Cruz is slightly bigger, and that would make the match-up close to a true 50/50. It might not be the biggest money maker, but I think real boxing fans would sh*t themselves upon hearing of this fight.

Inoue/Yamamnaka would be great. Inoue would rip Roman to shreds. Too big, fast and powerful.

In terms of styles, pure action. I am hoping for santa cruz vd valdez.

Thurman has already been quoted that Spence needs to put the work and time in to get the shot like he and everyone else did. Thurman will fight Porter again and beat him again and we'll just have to let this one mature before it becomes the NEXT fight we MUST see. And i think that we will see it.
Media and money make fights. Not boxers. If there s enough money on the table for spence and the media hype and he becomes a star after beating brook than it might happen quicker as you guys think.
Never happens. Because I have a bad feeling about this fight between Brook and Spence. I have a feeling that Spence is going to demolish Brook in a very bad way. So badly that there won't be another boxer wanting to sign on to fight this guy for a very long time.

Brook's a warrior and deserves all the credit in the world for taking these last two fights but Spence is a bad man and his punches come at you like a swarm of bee's. I'd hate to have to defend against that.

Thurman is nasty man. You're right. Thurman has been looking pretty unbeatable in recent fights. I guess a lot will tell with Spence and Brook. We will see what we have in this kid after that fight.
