    That’s about the same age I also see him fighting until he retires.

      Goulamirian
      Briedis (final fight at CW, to unify the division)
      Usyk (for the undisputed HW title)

      Yup, that should be enough. After beating Usyk he can retire as the GOAT and fight exhibition matches against polar bears or something.
      Honestly, I don’t see him fighting at heavyweight. Also, even if, and that’s a big IF, he beats Makabu, there’s no guarantee he can pull that off more than once. So, I don’t even like the idea of him staying at Cruiserweight, either.

        If he wins 6/9 of these listed fights, he has an argument for greatest of all time.

          Which of those fights do you think have the least likely chance of happening, out of curiosity?

            He shouldn't jump around weight classes too much.

            Once he commits to light heavyweight or higher, don't go back to super middleweight or middleweight.

            Roy Jones Jr. drained himself all the way from 193 to 175 to fight Antonio Tarver, and it ended in disaster.
