I was hoping he was going to be more adventurous after he broke ties with Universum but it's just continued along the same ponderous path.
He's a good fighter but staying in Germany and not showing any real willingness to fight the best guys at 160 isn't going to do anything for his resume. He'll probably make some good money but he won't leave his mark in the sport.
The WBA should be forcing him to fight one of their other "champions", Golovkin or N'kijam soon enough. Even if we have to wait for him to fight the winner of Golovkin-N'kijam, at least we'll get to see him againstt a quality fighter.
For the record, I think Golovkin beats N'kijam and Sturm.
