The fight I want to see most next in the lightweight division is Lomachenko vs Davis.

I can see Top Rank steering Loma towards the Emanuel Navarrete vs Denys Berinchyk winner instead, especially if Shakur Stevenson doesn't resign with them. The Navarrete vs Berinchyk fight is only a week after Loma's & they are close to the same schedule, where as Shakur & Tank have fights still upcoming in June & July. There'll also be a nice little revenge story attached should Navarrete defeat Loma's fellow Ukrainian countryman Berinchyk.

Stevenson might also have a mandatory to fulfil shortly. 

Tank has said he wants to fight Loma after his bout with Frank Martin but that fight has already been talk about for 7 years so who knows if it actually happens next.

William Zepeda is in the drivers seat & can basically decide what belt he wants a shot at.

Lightweight is currently in a healthy state with fighters like Raymond Muratalla, Andy Cruz, Keyshawn Davis, Albert Batyrgaziev & Edwin De Los Santos waiting in the wings. There is also the possibility of fighters like Joe Cordina & O’Shaquie Foster moving up in the near future.

Let's see how 135 plays out.

Canelo a 6:1 favorite over Munguia


Undisputed super middleweight champion Canelo Álvarez opened as a 6:1 favorite over Jaime Munguía and the odds haven’t changed much since then. Álvarez remains around -600 at most sportsbooks.
If you want to see the featured fighters in person for this Saturday’s big Canelo-Munguia card in Las Vegas, the grand arrivals are open to the public and will take place at 2PM tomorrow (Tuesday) in the MGM Grand Lobby.

• 3:30 PM – Canelo Álvarez
  

I got the mega-fight on December 24 (NZ time) and they said that for the $28 plus $2 for a monthly one time fee, I could get the fight and cancel anytime. So I did, and when I cancelled after 28 days, they said that there was a surcharge of $15. We went back and forth and the next time I contacted them they said, "yes, it is monthly, and you can cancel anytime, but there is NO REFUND and you have to pay for the WHOLE YEAR. They said, " read the fine print," which they have never shown me and I've never seen. Anyway, I contacted my bank to stop payment. When I told them, they said, "but look what DAZN offers you for a WHOLE YEAR!

Anyway, buyer beware!

Of course, it'll be March 9th in NZ. JP on the undercard v Zhang.

We have a lot of exciting fighters vying for belts in NZ. And Parker did the business on Wilder and is ready for 2024.
Here's hoping all the posters and viewers on here have a great 2024.

Joseph Parker gave me/us an early Christmas present. Hope everyone has a safe and happy Christmas Day.
