Golovkin-Stevens highly unlikely (Maybe Rubio-Stevens for interim belt?)

From what I've gathered, @GGGBoxing - @Showtime_Curtis is highly unlikely for November. Stevens either on an HBO undercard, or back on NBC

One possibility: If Chavez decides to stay at 168, the WBC could order Stevens-Marco Antonio Rubio for the interim belt.

Mora v Golovkin?

BC: The other big middleweight that comes up Gennady Golovkin. Is a fight with him on your radar or a fight you’re interested in at all?

SM: At this point I’m pursuing whatever will put me in a position to win a title. Golovkin is a titlist but he’s not the best, Sergio Martinez is the best so I would like to fight the best. But if I get a crack at Golovkin, Quillin, or Daniel Geale I’m definitely there.

Golovkin, I’m not avoiding him. He is a power punching machine that comes forward. He’s a good guy that’s there for the taking. The only guy he fought against that impressed me was Matthew Macklin, he’s the only one I really give him credit for. Other than that, he’s just picking apart guys that stand right in front him, no real talent. No real guys that are giving him speed, angles, and body shots and push him backward. No legitimate middleweights up until Macklin. But, I don’t see anything special in Golovkin. Next he’ll be fighting Curtis Stevens. Curtis Stevens is a guy that’s been knocked out by a guy that had 14 wins, 12 losses. When he steps up to an elite fighter, he’s going to get chopped.

Mora v Golovkin?

Yeah. I remember. I saw this coming as well. I tweeted it a few days ago.

I know it's not GGG's fault, but I really don't want to see a Mora fight. He's gonna dominate and it doesn't prove anything.

Any word on whether Di Bella will allow Mora to take the fight?

I know it's not GGG's fault, but I really don't want to see a Mora fight. He's gonna dominate and it doesn't prove anything.

Who's left?

[gauze]

i would love to see sergio "i have 2 losses to brian vera but golovkin doesnt impress me" mora get knocked out.

[PureBoxingCEO]

GGG doesnt need Stephens at all.

[Russian Crushin]

And then the winner will be mando to Sergio?

Replay of Rubio/Lemiux incoming

Mora v Golovkin is a crap fight...........a major step back from macklin (and the macklin fight wasn't all that good)
