How about assembling a bumper line up which includes a bout between Tim Tszyu and Jack Brubaker and another between league identities Darcy Lussick and Justin Hodges?
That is the card which Bathurst's Matt Rose, who leads No Limit Management, has assembled for December 6 at ICC Darling Harbour.
While Rose has now called time on a rugby league career which saw him play for sides such as the Oberon Tigers, Orange CYMS, Gundagai Tigers and Moore Park, he has successfully transitioned into management.
He oversees NRL players such as Jack Wighton and Cody Walker, while he has been involved in boxing promotions since 2013. Boxing is a sport he has a great passion for.
"We hope to continue to lift the sport and get more fans in because if we get more fans, we pay fighters more and put on bigger shows," he said in a Facebook interview.
"We just try find a bit of a balance between putting on the best shows and everyone getting rewarded depending on what fight they take. It's a work in progress, but we're getting there and we're enjoying it.
"We have had two events which are rated first and second in the highest rating boxing events in Fox Sports history. We started back in 2013 and this is our 10th show."

The 10th show promises plenty of quality bouts, including the Lussick versus Hodges fight, but the highlight will undoubtedly be the match up between Tszyu and Brubaker.
Rose admitted he had initially planned to get the undefeated Tszyu a bout with either Jeff Horn or Michael Zerafa but with that duo to square off, he lined up the Brubaker fight.
"Jack Brubaker has been performing unbelievable, I mean he's so entertaining," Rose said.
"Tim is the type of guy who is now starting to show real potential, like you can tell how fast he is. He's shown this year he's going to be on that world stage very soon.
"So why not take a fight that a guy is going to come and throw a lot of punches and take a lot of punches?"
