#4. Vicente Luque vs. Geoff Neal
Geoff Neal was able to break a two-fight losing streak at the expense of Santiago Ponzinibbio back in December 2021. Still in search of a fight, if he's willing to hold out for just a little bit longer then a big name fight against the likes of 'The Silent Assassin' may just present itself.
'Handz of Steel' one of the best boxers in divison
'Handz of Steel' has some of the best boxing in the division. He's very crisp, technical and powerful. His potential Brazilian adversary is not a slouch in the striking department, so this will be a tough fight for both participants.
Not only would this bout give some structure to what is a tempestuous division, but it'll be looked at as a potential Fight of the Year candidate given both fighters' approach towards combat. Both fighters' striking styles play perfectly into each other's for what would be an absolute war.
#3. Vicente Luque vs. Li Jingliang
Li Jingliang vs. Vicente Luque could be another barn-burner. With both coming off of losses to fighters just a hair away from a title shot in a bottle-necked division, either fighter has a lot to gain should this be the next step in their careers.
'The Leech' really made his presence known when he took out the returning Santiago Ponzinibbio, a fighter who was widely-regarded as the next world champion. The China Top Team fighter had plans to spoil this return and things went accordingly per his team. His next bout against Khamzat Chimaev would not go over so smoothly, however.
This loss shouldn't relegate Jingliang too much, as it was a fight that nobody was willing to take. Another fight up as a reward for helping build Chimaev up wouldn't be a bad move.
