I was reading through all the rankings in boxing and it appears that there is a possibility that we might be given one of the greatest superfights on 2023 if the promoters can work together. This is Naoya Inoue vs. Stephen Fulton as undisputed champion vs. undisputed champion which has never occurred before in the sport of boxing.
However, first Fulton must defeat Murodjon Akhmadaliev by end of this year and also similar for Inoue, he must defeat Paul Butler. Let us hope hehehe!
Well this is good but as you have said Fulton will have to fight Murodjon Akhmadaliev. But then again, there is the boxing politics, Fulton is a PBC fighter, Akhmadaliev is with Matchroom, so there will be a lot of negotiations behind and I don't know if this can be made. So this is going to be an obstacles, as I would see that more likely it could be Inoue vs Akhmadaliev that can be made first if Inoue decided to go up in weight class and immediately fight for the belt.
