Ugas deserves another big fight, dude barely lost to Porter and gave a good account of himself last night too beating the shyt outta Figueroa
I'd watch Ugas vs Thurman or Swift

Also Chisora vs Parker sounds good now, I'd really like Chisora vs Kownacki too but that's very unlikely due to politics.
Oscar "the Colombian Arthur Abraham" Rivas could make for good fights if he's matched with the right style. Him vs Chisora, Povetkin, Ortiz or Kownacki would be all entertaining.

Rivas Povetkin or Rivas vs Pulev I’m down for

Canelo's Coach Says The Aim is To Fight in December

Canelo's Coach Says The Aim is To Fight in December

By Miguel Rivera

Eddy Reynoso, the trainer for Saul "Canelo" Alvarez, confirmed that his boxer's planned return for September 14th was canceled because a deal could not be reached with WBO light heavyweight champion Sergey Kovalev.

Canelo wanted to move up by two weight classes to face Kovalev, who instead will return to the ring next month against mandatory challenger Anthony Yarde.

Reynoso advised ESPN Deportes that he wasn't aware of the exact details of what created the Kovalev fallout - but he indicates that his boxer's promoter, Golden Boy Promotions, is already working hard to finalize an elite level opponent for Canelo to face in the ring in December.

Reynoso strongly denied some of the circulating rumors that the cancellation of Canelo's fight was due in part to a possible injury or physical discomfort.

"Saul is in perfect condition," Reynoso insisted to ESPN Deportes. "Because he will not fight in September, we had to readjust our training camp, but he will return better than ever in December."

There were some heavy industry rumors that Canelo was at odds with DAZN, who last year signed the boxer to an exclusive multi-fight agreement. Reportedly DAZN was pressuring Canelo to face either Kovalev or Gennady Golovkin - and the streaming service was refusing to approve any other opponent. Canelo refused to fight Golovkin for a third time. And when the negotiations to face Kovalev fell apart, the Mexican star pushed back his return.

On one hand I like how DAZN is willing to press fighters to get the good fights although it's still not clear if they can tell him who to fight or not.
On the other hand it would be welcome if they would hold their other fighters to similar standards. Not the same cause they don't pay them as much as to Canelo either but I'd like to see them telling Golovkin too to pick a live body on his next fight.

It's also confusing why they were telling him he can only fight GGG or Kovalev
Smith, Andrade, Charlo... what would be a problem with them? All high quality opponets
