BJ Saunders versus Murray
Haye versus Fury
Quigg versus Frampton

Sadly, my prediction is that none of those three will materialise!

That's why I think he'll fight BJS, Billy Joe gets an experianced name and Macklin a chance to show he's still got it

He will bring lots of pressure regardless and Saunders has looked fatigued when under proper pressure

Sorry Truss I have to say Golovkin crushes him. He seems a class act and a tremendous puncher.

Outside the ring (on another issue) he comes across as a humble guy as well.

With regards to the groves vs de gale Truss, with the big divide we currently have on the forum between the two......what with who has been better since the first fight and what not.....it can finally be put to bed. Hopefully in a number 1 contender match/eliminator for a shot at froch. Would have some added spice to it.

Id still pick de gale by ud or stoppage.

Neither do I, I said on the thread when it was announced that Macklin can cause lots of problems (people forget how he boxed very well agaisnt Sergio amd handily beat Sturm) but at the end of the day the power and chin advantages and how much more damage Macklin has taken so far in his career will result in a KO loss late on


Murray and barker won't need a loss like a BJS as they have may years left whereas Macklin won't be around for too long

He'll give Macklin a run for his money.  Would be a big fight in Ireland and might even fill Dublin's O2.

I think you're underrating Lee and overrating Macklin.  There would be a lot of interest in this fight and both would want to prove a point.

Selby vs Burns (providing Selby stops the silly weight draining and moves up to lightweight.

Froch vs Groves

Frampton vs Quigg (you never know, it might be easier to make that a lot are thinking. Hearn seemed to really want it and had a lot to say on the subject. Could be forced to eat his word if Quigg wants it. Frampton is still saying he wants Quigg in the next 12 months and is not only promoted by Warren, he promotes himself now in a co-promotion situation. This was the reason for leaving Hearn).

I'd want to see:

Haye - Fury, purely for the press conferences & how brutal the KO will be.

DeGale - Groves 2 - let's see if Chunky's learned anything

Jamie McDonnell vs Lee Haskins 2 -  Could Haskins win again? IBF Title at stake now...

Too many for me to only name 3!

Barker/Macklin/Murray/Lee - any combination [that is if Macklin's superiority complex wanes at some stage - presumably after Golovkin]

Frampton - Quigg

Price/Fury/Haye

Froch v Murray [appreciate that Murray would have to move up but he has said that he would like to fight Froch & I think he is more qualified to face Froch than Groves or JDG - would be a war too!]

Yeah agreed - just throwing it out there given all the guff being spouted by JDG & Groves, out of all the domestics I feel he has more of a right to challenge Froch, even if he is moving up a weight class but the fight probably wouldn't make enough money anyway.

Quigg/Frampton/Galahad any combination

Degale vs Groves II

Barker vs Murray- sadly I think Macklin could be wiped out by the Golovkin fight.

Haye vs Fury - To hopefully see Haye put on a show and stop the incredibly lame and irritating Fury.
Brook vs Khan - Really want to see Brook step up in class soon, I think he has the right credentials to beat Khan and really make a mark on world level.
Degale vs Groves 2 - Cant stand Degale's know it all attitude. I dont think he has improved very much at all since their first fight and would love to see Groves stop Degale this time which i think he is capable of.

Stuart Hall Vs Don Broadhurst

Paul Smith Vs Kenny Anderson

Frankie Gavin Vs Vassell (then onto Brook)

Martin Gethin Vs  Anthony Crolla
