1. Anthony Joshua vs Tyson Fury

If Fury can get past Wilder in February then Joshua vs Fury could be the biggest fight in British boxing history. It has to potential to sell out Wembley Stadium and attract a global audience.

Fight Quality: 5/5

2. Callum Smith vs Saul Alvarez

This fight would pit two of the world’s pound for pound best against each other in a pick-em super fight. The winner would have a very legitimate claim to be the best boxer in the sport.

Fight Quality: 5/5

Likelihood of Fight: 2/5

3. Terence Crawford vs Errol Spence

These two top pound for pound rated stars both occupy the welterweight division. It’s an obvious fight and it will be a huge shame if it doesn’t happen this year.

Fight Quality: 5/5

Likelihood of Fight: 3/5

4. Vasyl Lomachenko vs Manny Pacquiao

Fight Quality: 5/5

Likelihood of Fight 2/5

5. Floyd Mayweather vs Manny Pacquiao 2

Their first fight always had an air of unfinished business about it. The decision was viewed as controversial by Team Pacquiao and he reportedly carried a shoulder injury going into the fight. With Mayweather in semi-retirement ever since many believe Pacquiao could beat Mayweather in an era defining rematch.
