A new year brings new excitement in the boxing world and it is the perfect time to put together your 2024 fight wishlist.

But what about the fights that haven’t officially been confirmed? What super-fights do you want to see in 2024?

Here BBC Sport picks out some bouts we want to see in the coming 12 months.

Tyson Fury v Anthony Joshua

Let’s start big, shall we? It seems every year we’re hoping to see Fury take on Joshua. The heavyweight rivalry, so far, has played out outside the ring with plenty of false dawns and failed talks.

But 2023 brings new optimism with Saudi Arabia appearing content to pump money into the boxing scene to try and deliver the fights that, so far, promoters have shied away from.

Criticism of the kingdom’s sportswashing efforts and their human rights record hasn’t stopped the co-operation of boxing’s biggest names, and we expect several more big fights to happen there in 2023.

A lot has to happen in order for Joshua to finally fight his greatest domestic rival, including Fury’s undisputed fight against Usyk and a mooted rematch with MMA star Francis Ngannou.

But we’ve not given up hope just yet, even if we are still mourning the loss of Joshua v Deontay Wilder.

Katie Taylor v Chantelle Cameron III

Katie Taylor’s epic comeback against Chantelle Cameron in November tied their rivalry at 1-1 after two fights.

A trilogy is now in the works, which would be the first time Taylor has fought an opponent three times as a pro.

Northampton’s Cameron has already said she is ready to come to Ireland for a third time, while Taylor said if she fights at GAA stadium Croke Park it would have to be against either Cameron or Amanda Serrano.

Time will tell whether promoters Matchroom want to pair Taylor with Cameron or look to send her back down to her natural weight at lightweight to take on Serrano, who she holds a win over.

Either fight would be a fitting end to a remarkable career for Taylor.

Devin Haney v Garcia Davis

Devin Haney’s demolition of Regis Prograis to win the WBC light-welterweight title last month really cemented the 25-year-old as one of the best fighters in the world.

Haney made moving up in weight to become a two-division world champion look easy and WBA ‘regular’ lightweight champion Gervonta Davis has fought at light-welterweight as recently as 2021.

Davis is the big hitter, while Haney is the slick boxer.

Both men have made their names in the lightweight division – Haney won the undisputed championship at that weight – and fans are still desperate to see two of America’s biggest undefeated stars in the ring together.

Anthony Yarde v Joshua Buatsi or Dan Azeez

Not unlike Fury-Joshua, rival promoters and competing agendas seem to have got in the way of Anthony Yarde fighting Joshua Buatsi.

It’s a fight between two Londoners the British public have long wanted to see, especially after Yarde’s epic display against light-heavyweight champion Artur Beterbiev a year ago.

Buatsi is due to fight Dan Azeez on 3 February. The fight was originally scheduled for October and Yarde had notably inserted himself into the build-up before it was cancelled.

Yarde is with Frank Warren’s Queensberry Promotions while Boxxer promotes Azeez and Buatsi.

Boxxer’s Ben Shalom has always insisted he is prepared to work with other promoters to make the biggest fights and with Yarde openly campaigning to fight the winner of Buatsi v Azeez, we hope to see that match-up happen soon.

Artur Beterbiev v Dmitry Bivol

Probably the most intriguing stylistic match-up there is on the elite stage in boxing.

Artur Beterbiev has proven he has other-worldly knockout ability with a 100% stoppage rate in 19 fights, while not even Saul ‘Canelo’ Alvarez has been able to put a dent in Dmitry Bivol.

A fight would bring all the light-heavyweight belts together for the first time in the four-belt era and would make for a wonderful game of chess between two supremely talented fighters.

Honourable mentions: Saul ‘Canelo’ Alvarez v David Benavidez (super-middleweight)

Fabio Wardley v Frazer Clarke (heavyweight)

Natasha Jonas v Sandy Ryan (welterweight)

Josh Taylor v Jack Catterall 2 (catchweight)

Raven Chapman v Skye Nicolson (featherweight)
