Acceptable opponent for GGG

now the Wade fight is near i up bumping this thread up because Ramireze has been talked about and it seems like a few people are calling it a cherry pick because of the "Ward Doe" phenomenon. ironically the Ramirez vs. Abraham winner was the most accepted fight... and the same people who voted for that fight are the same ones who are calling cherry pick... NSB... be consistent with your hate please lol.

I wouldn't mind a Badou Jack showdown. Why not...

If it's not Ward than I don't care So, just how much of a weight advantage do you think Ward needs to beat GGG?

the doe gave it away as being a sarcastic option which just goes to show ggg fans go with whatever team ggg says they are like his minions. actually it goes to show that the haters haven't been forgotten, just acknowledgement to them. And the reason i say haters is because this is the only guy who they ever think of when it comes to GGG, no matter if its any other tough challenge they will always come back to Ward Doe. i don't know what that has to do with what team GGG said.

Oh, so you think "lil g" should move up to 175 now? :haha: https://media.giphy.com/media/DCp4s7Z1FizZe/giphy.gif I'm ok with him fighting at 160 if he fights a live body. Jacobs, Saunders or Canelo preferably. Otherwise fight Ward at 68 :boxing: Ya man is shook

Even thought Ward gave an interview with Fight Hype saying he wasn't adding any muscle to move up to 175, he also said he won't go back to 168 for GGG in the future. He knows from Chad Dawson how it weakens you. What is so hilarious is that so many people are trying to pretend like Ward moved up because he wanted to. LOL, no he moved up because he just couldn't make 168 anymore which is why he kept trying to drag subpar 168 competition up with him because he really didn't want to move up.

Why do ya'll keep trying make the king of 160 move up? so all the little frauds can come out and play? Another subversive attempt to get GGG to move up so that there is maybe, just maybe some way for him to catch a loss....smh, when they shook, they shook!

GGG never gave the same treatment to Ward as Canelo is giving him. there are major differences in the two scenarios, i've argued that point to death so i wont get into it. That being said i agree with you that Ward vs. GGG would have been a great fight, the reason i put "Ward Doe" option is because in so many cases no matter who the opponent mentioned there are posters who come back and say "well he is willing to fight Froch, Degale, Junior at 168 but not Word" in other words its a sarcastic option at this point in time because that fight isn't happening, but god i hope it does happen eventually if both keep winning. Also the reason for this thread is just to put a few names out there to see how this community feels about other fighters in the higher weight class. some of these fights are very possible in the near future. I am 99% sure if GGG unifies 160 that he will move up to 168 and might try to accomplish the same thing and some of these fights could be a lot closer then we think. the doe gave it away as being a sarcastic option which just goes to show ggg fans go with whatever team ggg says they are like his minions.

Most of the guys up there are high ranked boxers or belt holders so most of the would make good opponents for GIGANTIC G to knock out. Ward said he will never return to 168. If he did he would also make a good KO loss victim.

I would match GGG against the Sturm/Chudinov winner. It would be a chance for GGG to finally get his hands on Sturm, and if Chudinov retains, it would be a nice barometer of GGG's power and punch resistance as Chudinov will be in front of him all night. Afterwards, I would match him against Groves in the UK to see if he'd be a viable attraction overseas. Then I would match him against DeGale/Jack.

why even add ward we all know team ggg will fight all comers not named ward and they got 254 reasons why. they have to keep changing their excuse cause they constantly contradict themselves they change their reason depending which day of the week it is but we all know team ggg wont fight ward ragardless. even if ward stays active wins a few big fights gets his name back in the public we all know ggg wont fight him. there is no road that could lead to a ward fight no matter what team ggg has made it clear its not about money belts weight legacy nothing they wont even entertain it and we all know why. even tho this would be a complete mega fight and yes ggg fans it would be a mega fight after a fight or 2 from ward and both fighters would make alot of money but the point is team ggg has made it clear they wont fight ward regardless so having him on the list is pointless so if were taking out the one fighter who would be favored against ggg off the list i think the obvious answer is canelo. since canelo is treating ggg like ggg treated ward i think the only thing ggg can really do is move up and fight some big names at 168. I mean i guess it depends who u ask a lot of people are perfectly content watching him destroy overmatched foes at 160 and i get it its his weight class as long as he fights the biggest names at 160 i totally get it. but the reality is we all want to see ggg fight a fighter that has even a chance to make it even interesting and i think the only way to do that is fight bigger guys and move up to 168. its no different then mayweather and manny taking fights at 154. i can see why ggg fans get upset with the bashing of ggg and they think well hes trying to fight canelo there is nobody to fight its his mando i get it as a mayweather fan it seems like no matter who these guys pick to fight they cant win, but at the same time in my honest opinion i think team ggg is playing his fans for fools. they say its all about the belts but then they take a bunch of step aside fees instead of forcing purse bids then they keep fighting over matched fighters with a constant big fight next that never happens. Well see how it all plays out and i hate sounding bitter with ggg but him completely blowing off what in my opinion is the best fight boxing has to offer in ward ggg has left a bad taste in my mouth GGG never gave the same treatment to Ward as Canelo is giving him. there are major differences in the two scenarios, i've argued that point to death so i wont get into it.

All are fine.

Why do ya'll keep trying make the king of 160 move up? so all the little frauds can come out and play?

he should just go straight for a titlist otherwise there's scarcely any point in moving up. or froch. i guess chavez jr or hopkins would be excusable showcase fights (/cash grabs) if they weren't coming off a loss but i mean why bother with callum smith when there are better prospects at 160? and the dirrell brothers at this point are no better than any random top 10 contender at 160 either

Alright so lets assume for a second that no credible 160 lbs fighter is willing to get in the ring with GGG. He strips canelo... and decides to take a fight at 168 until BJS or his replacement agrees to unify. Who would be an acceptable fighter for him to make his debut at SMW. you can select multiple opponents. Any of them would be acceptable. DeGale would be my first choice than Chudinov.
