Next Fight You're Really Looking Forward To, and Why.

Post by Thomastearns »

After the crushing disappointment of Canelogate that means waiting only for May 5ths Bellew-Haye. Fingers crossed.

Should be some great banter, esp from Bellew, 2 clean fighters, and a 50/50 result in the balance.

Luis Ortiz vs anyone either Parker or AJ has beaten already in a world champion fight. Just because I'm curious to see how good he really still is.

Erislandy Lara vs Jarrett Hurd and the undercard to that show

Because the next fight, is the only fight.

Ortiz-Povetkin
Haye-Parker
Whyte-Miller
M. Garcia-Lomachenko

I know that this is not the realistic scenario, but these fights would be interesting and competitive.

Miller Vs Duhaupas
Washington didn't keep it up enough to show where Miller is at in the HW mix. Duhaupas might give a better indicator, especially with all this AJ/Miller talk.

Wilder v. Charr...perhaps Wilder with the WBA belt as well, we can finally see the fight we need to see!

Joshua already has the real WBA belt. The secondary belt that Charr and Oquendo will fight for is meaningless. The winner of that fight still arguably doesn't even rank in the Top 25...and it's a pretty shallow division as is so that's saying something.

Guess it would suck anyway since Briedis laid Charr out.

Charr is very mediocre. I don't think he'd get by Chisora. He should beat Oquendo though for what that's worth....which is not much.

All my roads lead to Wilder/Joshua. Especially since we've lost GGG/Canelo. So frustrated with our sport!

Well, the only thing boxing is offering me, is the WBSS. At least the CW's are fighting each other.

I'm personally kinda glad the GGG vs Canelo rematch fell through. I had no real reason to believe the judging was gonna be on the level this time either, and as a GGG fan I didn't like the way the deck seemed stacked against him from all sides.

The WBSS is definitely great.

There's almost always something worthwhile in Boxing every weekend. I never see it go more than 3 weeks without SOME sort of meaningful fight happening somewhere on the Globe. Usually it's even more frequent than that.

I have Simon Keane (why, IDK) and Tony Yoka this weekend. Of course Saturday's card with DeGale and all!...I just hope I can see a great fight regardless of the participants.

If you wanna see a great one from just a few days ago that you likely may have missed I'd highly recommend Henrri David Polanco vs Hector David Saldivia

A badass fight that happened in Argentina over the weekend. It's on Youtube.
