What are the top 3 biggest fights to be made in boxing?

I know we have threads like this from time to time so I figured why not now.

Some sweet matchups to be made right now, even though boxing sucks and is on the decline and filled with palookas:

Joshua-Wilder
Joshua-Fury
Fury_Wilder
Thurman-Spence
Thurman-Crawford
Crawford-Spence
Lomachenko-Garcia
Lomachenko-Crawford
GGG-Canelo
I'm sure I've missed a couple.

What's your top 3?

 

Joshua-Wilder
Spence-Crawford
Lomachenko-Garcia

 

Fury-Joshua or Fury-Wilder are big in the UK but wouldn’t be that big in the US at all unless Fury had already beaten Joshua.

 

For REED It’s Joshua-Wilder, Thurman-Spence and Loma-Mikey...







REED

 

Concur

 

You listed nine.

 

They were examples of great fights to be made.

 

It specifies Top 3.
Everyone else has posted three.

 

is this supposed to ask what are the biggest financially?

cuz Joshua is not a big star here, at all. Him and furry is a big fight in the UK but not here AT ALL.

Hurd vs Lara had more viewers than Joshua vs Parker on showtime.

 

I haven't given a Top 3 list as yet but I decided to list some possible matchups as examples for people to choose from. I often do that. Perhaps I wasn't clear enough for you.

 

Ah but havent you heatd?
Britain is the ' center of the boxing Universe'.

Keep hearing that.



From the British.

 

Exactly the 3 fights I want to see. I'd also add Stevenson-Kovalev has a fourth one.

 

Lomachenko-Garcia
Spence-Thurman
AJ-Wilder

And with the collapse of GGG-Canelo, I think the sport needs these fights to happen.

 

I'd like to see benavidez vs uzcategui

 

After Saturday, I almost wanna see Spence-Hurd more than Spence-Crawford.

 

That's definitely the best matchup to make at 168.

At 175, I'd like to see Bivol-Beterbiev, but it won't happen.

 

This...

 

I been lacking on the boxing watching or caring about it....but...a few...

Joshua vs Wilder

GGG vs Canelo II

Spence vs Crawford

 

Sounds crazy, but I almost wanna see Mikey vs Prograis more than Mikey vs Loma.

Mikey vs Prograis is guaranteed fireworks.

 

Fight I wanna see that actually MIGHT happen this year.... Jacobs-Charlo.

 

Kovalev-Bivol is one I would love to see.

 

Golovkin vs Derevyanchenko

 

Financially? Easy.

Conor vs anyone
Floyd vs anyone
Conor vs Floyd

 

No one wants to see McGregor fail again and Floyd’s shot as a boxer.

 

so you're saying these fights would do horrible numbers? ok.. ok

 

McGregor won’t fail this time because it won’t be a boxing match.

 

AJ-Wilder #1. It's the heavyweight division after all and even though this isn't a great era for heavyweight boxing, it's the best it's been for quite some time and this has the makings to be an explosive matchup.

Just not sure if I can put GGG-Canelo 2 in the top 3. 1) it's already happened and we all know that GGG really deserved the decision the first time round and 2) despite it being a big money fight, the gloss has somewhat been taken off of it with the allegations towards Canelo.

In at 2 I'm going with Loma-Garcia. Rated by most as P4P #1 and the greatest natural talent we've seen since Roy Jones Jr. Garcia is the perfect test for him after Linares. Linares is a decent test but not on the same scale as Garcia. Loma's stock really would rise a great deal with a win over Garcia.

In at 3...Spence-Crawford. I would have gone Thurman-Spence, but the majority of us feel that Spence beats Thurman pretty handily and the natural next step for Spence would be to fight Crawford, so that makes it the bigger fight. Quite a few of us are split on Spence-Crawford too and it would be a matchup between two young, hungry, talented fighters who are rated highly.

 

*Floyd not Jones Jr*

 

Yes. Floyd-Mcgregor 2 would fail as a ppv. How are they goin to market it? “One guy is even older now. It might be competitive!”
