What next for Leigh Wood: Michael Conlan rematch or unification fight?
Watch Taylor vs. Serrano live worldwide on DAZN
The world is Leigh Wood's oyster after he retained his WBA featherweight title against Michael Conlan in Nottingham this past weekend.
Wood's explosive twelfth round knockout, which can be seen on DAZN, has re-ignited boxing interest in the East Midlands and now a fight at the City Ground will be next.
But who will be in the opposite corner?
There is another featherweight world title fight on March 26th live on DAZN when Josh Warrington takes on Kiko Martinez for the IBF belt, making the winner of this particular contest a potential dance partner for Wood in what would be a huge unification clash.
However, after producing a fight of the year contender, the clamour is there for Wood and Conlan to go head-to-head for a second time.
On the latest episode of The DAZN Boxing Show, Tony Bellew can see why Wood has his sights set on a unification, but believes Conlan would be the better fight for legacy.
"The demand for that rematch is bigger than anything," Bellew responded when asked about which avenue Wood should choose.
"I will absolutely guarantee the money will be unbelievable for a rematch and far better than it will be going into a unification with Josh Warrington or Kiko Martinez, that’s fact.
"I know what Leigh will want to do: Leigh will want the unification match.
"I know 100% the lucrative financial side is City Ground and Michael Conlan rematch."
