2026 is quite literally just around the corner, so with the new year pretty much here, we’ve picked out one fight that needs to happen in every single one of the 17 weight divisions in men’s boxing.

What a first half of the year it has been in terms of thrilling, intriguing and epic boxing contests, with the likes of Tyson Fury vs Oleksandr Usyk, Devin Haney vs Ryan Garcia, Artur Beterbiev vs Callum Smith and Naoya Inoue vs Luis Nery all living up to the pre-fight hype.

From New Jersey to San Antonio, and then onto California, it was very much a night of statements from east to west of the United States.

UK fans will have to look across the pond for this weekend’s boxing fix as Shakur Stevenson and Bam Rodriguez take their respective centre stages.
