Joshua vs Povetkin for me, it should be an intriguing watch. Aside from that, Warrington vs Frampton will be high on my list of priorities in December.

Kimura - Tanaka is reasonably important. If Tanaka wins it, he should be among the prospects for future p4p #1 (along with Rosales, Dogboe, Nery, Inoue, Munguia, etc.).

If Tanaka wins he will have claimed 3 divisional world titles in 12 bouts, tying Lomachenko's record. That's pretty significant when you think about it, given that he was a good amateur....but not THAT good...But Kimura in sensational form recently, big wins in his last few fights and building a real reputation as a tough as balls warrior who won't back down :D

I am waiting for the AJ vs Povetkin the most. HW's number 1 and 2 in the same ring. Rare treat :box:

Second one is Groves vs Smith. I really like the tournaments and it is nice to see another one reach its climax.

Usyk vs Bellew should be good. Usyk is always great to watch.

Saunders v Andrade, Jacobs v Derevyanchenko, Fury v Pulev all are relevant match ups to rank the fighters in their weight class. All of them are pretty evenly matched which is great. Always good when top 10 level fighters face each other (Fury junior excluded).

I am kind of hoping that Fury vs Wilder won't happen just yet. I don't think that Fury is ready for the fight. Kind of ruins the fight for me.

Whyte vs Chisora II should be good fan friendly match. I think it will go the same way as the first one. It is quite unrelevant for the rankings and Chisoras chance to win on points is on the level of GGG in Vegas.

Khan and Brook are bit past it and it is hard for me to get too excited about this one.

Mayweather vs Pac is like rubbing salt on old wounds.

For the others I have no strong opinions on :twisted:

Joshua v Povetkin

Fury Wilder is dragging on although reports say an announcement is imminent.

Whyte v Chisora 2 ... I like that.
