Okay, so we have a million threads on Fury vs Joshua, just like 7 / 8 years ago we had millions of threads on Khan vs Brook and 15 years ago - Hatton vs Witter.

But what about current domestic fights that you feel need to happen but have not.

Here is one that I feel needs to happen - Luke Campbell vs Liam Walsh - Luke Campbell seems to be now being hyped as an "elite" level Lightweight and is being mentioned against the likes of Lopez and Haney. However, I'm not convinced he has proven himself the best in the UK yet. Walsh has only lost once and the Davis loss is looking more and more respectable with each Davis win. Surprisingly there is only a year between them in age also. Really think Walsh has been cast aside and he is good boxer.

One that gets a few mentions, but not that many - Liam Williams vs Eubank Jnr - again I think both have valid claims to be the #1 Middleweight in the country (as Campbell and Walsh at Lightweight if you ask me), but they are both talking world honours before cementing their place as the #1 in the country.

Who do you think wins either fight and which other "under the radar" domestic fights would you like to see.

Think Campbell wins, he’s proven to have the kind of toughness and stamina you need at world level and that would be more than enough for Walsh I think. Eubank v Williams could be a cracker, Eubanks got a lot of faults but has a good engine, work rate and chin to come through on points. How about Farooq v Butler ?

Yarde V Buatsi

Josh Taylor v Jack Catterall.

Callum was on the sky sports boxing podcast last month and said he wants 2 more fights before making either of these fights.

These 2 would hug so much they'd get more views showing it on pornhub

Would love to see that fight.

Williams is such an improved fighter under Dom Ingle. He’s dedicated, in excellent shape and has a bit of nasty about him. If he beats Andrade in February 2021 (a big enough ask) then that must open the possibility of a Williams v Eubank jnr fight. Without Williams holding a world title then I wouldn’t imagine Eubank would want any of him.

Probably, but I like Riakhporhe and want him to batter Okolie.

Callum will be 47 by that time

Yep Okolie is better than Riakhpore in every single department. Fight would be a snooze fest, just the way Laurence likes it.

Yafai vs Edwards was a fight I scoffed at a couple years back, but it probably makes sense now, I think Kal wins with bodyshot in the 7th.

I agree with the Chris Eubank jnr v Liam William's shout Would be a good fight, but only one winner and that's Eubank jnr.

Problem is Williams is far too low profile at this stage of Eubank jnr's career.

If it weren't already happening in a couple of weeks they'd be a lot of clamour for the Joyce v Dubois fight

Campbell has definitely proved himself to be world level.

Daniel Dubois vs Dereck Chisora (why not!)
Robbie Davies Jr vs Ohara Davies ( wanna see another ohara build up vs a scouse fighter! )
Jay Harris vs Andrew Selby (battle of Wales)
Liam Smith vs Kell Brook
Felix Cash vs Danny Dignum
Anthony Fowler vs Ted Cheeseman

Andrew Selby has retired :(

One that hasn't been mentioned and could happen next year as they are both with MTK is Lee McGregor vs Paul Butler. Could probably have it as an IBF Eliminator and would be a cracking fight.

Lerrone Richards v Willy Hutchinson

it's happening on the Fury card and Hutchinson will win easily.
