I'd have to say that I'm looking forward to Tua-Lewis the most, though I think that Trinidad-Vargas will be the more interesting.
Tua-Lewis will basically define the near future (say, next 1 to 2 years) of the heavyweight division.
If Tua was to win, upheaval would follow: I'm sure he wouldn't hold the belts through a Lewis rematch (which would certainly come unless it was a 1st round KO), let alone vs. Tyson. And, I'm sure that Tua, if we won, would try to unify vs. Holyfield, which would probably push Evander (back) into retirement.
On the other hand, if, as I expect, Lewis wins, I don't see who, other than Tyson, has a chance at knocking him off the block until he decides he'd like to exit stage left.
My pick, at this point, for that fight is Lewis by KO/stoppage in the 5th.
With regard to Trinidad-Vargas, well, I'm expecting nothing short of fireworks. Two powerful & fast ring warriors battling it out, the victor of which will take the forefront of the most highly-contested weight class in boxing today.
I think T-V will be the best; I'm most excited about T-L.
