    Martinez vs GGG first, then (win or loss)
    Chavez vs GGG > Ward vs GGG
    &
    Martinez vs Canelo > Martinez vs Mayweather

      You can understand the question it two different ways:

      1) Which fight do you think should happen ( for me, Maravilla)

      2) Which fight do you think the best to watch/most competitive (Ward)

      The vaguries of language make it unclear which is meant by the TS.

      I think Maravilla (unless he has been somehow rejuvenated) will lose, and badly, to GGG, and it pains me that his epic heart will mean that he could get seriously hurt. However, the fight is almost a necessary ritual handing of the torch, as well as the honourable and timely bowing out of a great champion.

      Golovkin -Ward would be the more competitive fight, and the one of the only fights at MW and SMW where I would be unsure of Golovkin winning - and in fact (depending on how 'Dre looks next fight) might put GGG as the underdog. But in the sense of being the more 'real' fight, Ward would have to be the one I'd most like to see.

        Still important the fight happens though.

        Martinez wins UD

          I voted for Martinez. He can take care of Ward later after he knocks Martinez out.

            I agree,

            Ward is the fight I, as a fan, want to see. Martinez is the fight that makes the most sense.

            At this stage Golovkin is likely to beat Sergio and become the linear champion at MW. As for GGG beating Ward, as fascinating as it is, I don't think it's gonna happen.

            But you never know for sure in boxing.

              GGG-Martinez makes more sense to me because GGG and Martinez is in the same weight class. It is better to become the champion of the division you are in before moving up.

                Ward vs GGG is 10 times a better match up. To me atleast.
                damn right. as for now, Sergio vs Gennady. even at Sergios prime, i'd still favour Gennady

                  Agree

                  I love sergio and see him landing quite a few st8 lefts against GGG, but he has never been untouchable. I don't think he'd survive GGG's touches.
