    I think GGG should fight someone who hasn't gotten stopped yet.
    I wouldn't bet on that actually. He called Froch out which suggests to me he's looking for a payday. Only thing is he's an Al Haymon fighter now, I don't think they deal with HBO any more.

      Him being a Haymon fighter makes it even more likely that he milks the belt. It would be a good match-up though. Bika is durable and should be able to test GGG's endurance/stamina. It also helps that he hasn't been stopped.

      Mora just beat Proksa, so maybe he'll take the fight. I think he'd wind up clinching up a storm.

        Sergio Mora, Murray, Rubio, Adama, I think all those are realistic fights for him at this time. Maybe he can get the Geale v. Barker winner afterwards.

          Martin Murray makes sense. The guy seems fearless.

            Too bad Kovalev isn't at 168. That would be an epic fight.

              Murray didn't look like he's interested, at least that was the vibe I got.
              Rubio has pop and is pretty durable, but he's limited and would provide no puzzle for GGG to solve.

                It would have to be in Europe.

                      Who would even be available to fight him in sept if it isn't Murray or Rubio? I hadn't thought of Mora, that looks like it would be possible since Mora is somewhat of a name. I just hope he doesn't get matched with someone like Vera.
