Last year was a little better for boxing in terms of making the top fights everyone wants to see. Ward-Kovalev, Canelo-Govkin, Lomachenko-Rignodeax, Joshua-Klitschko, and Thurman-Garcia all fit the mold. In that same vain, here are the fights I'd like to see in 2018.
Heavyweight
Some combination of Anthony Joshua, Deontay Wilder, and Joseph Parker. Please stop fighting Eric Molina!
Light Heavyweight
Adonis Stevenson vs. Sergey Kovalev for the legitimate light heavyweight championship.
Artur Beterbiev vs. Dmitry Bivol
Middleweight
Canelo-Golovkin 2
Billy Joe Saunders vs. Erislandy Lara (give me a skilled chess match any day)
Welterweights
Terence Crawford vs. Errol Spence, but Keith Thurman is currently the best in the division, so let Crawford or Spence fight Thurman and the other one fight Danny Garcia before Crawford and Spence face off.
Junior Welterweights
Mikey Garcia vs Regis Prograis (I'm high on Prograis and I wonder if Garcia can take a hard-punching 140 pounder's punch)
Lightweight
Vasyl Lomachenko vs. Mikey Garcia
Junior Lightweight
Gervonta Davis vs. Gary Russell (Baltimore vs. DC)
Featherweight
Tournament
Leo Santa Cruz vs. Gary Russell
Carl Frampton vs. Abner Mares
Junior Bantamweight
Naoya Inoue vs Srisaket Sor Rungvisai-Juan Estrada winner
