Here are three boxing fights to save 2020.

2020 has turned life upside down, with the whole world being put on pause due to the coronavirus pandemic. However, life is beginning to return to normal. Stores and restaurants are slowly starting to open in some capacity, and sports leagues in Europe have either come back, or will come back next month, with U.S. leagues likely to follow.

This is terrific for the morale of people everywhere, as one of the greatest uniting factors in the world is sports; there is nothing like getting some friends together and watching a big sporting event.

So while a good chunk of 2020 will have been lost to COVID-19, and despite the fact that we may not be able to watch these events in person, there’s still time to set up some big boxing matches to end the year on a high note, giving fans something to look forward to — a light at the end of the tunnel that was 2020.

For this article, only realistic fights will be discussed, and by realistic, I mean negotiations have been had in the past, with no network issues to resolve; these fights could be made tomorrow with little to no hurdles.

Spoiler alert: That means Crawford-Spence will not be on the list, despite it being the best fight to make in boxing. Neither will Fury-Joshua, despite both sides negotiating, that is not an easy fight to make due to different networks being involved.
