    That's the fight everyone wants.

    He beats everyone else at 160.
    Martinez seems hell bent on Cotto. Which coming off of a year layoff, a 2nd knee surgery and a fractured hand is a good big money comeback fight. But this should definitely happen next fall or winter at the latest.

      His focus next year should be Martinez, Quillin and Murray. That would be a solid resume at 160 and 3 good fights.
      His management is smart and won't make the mistake.
      Murray is a big guy but weak imo, i've seen him get rocked by feather fisted guys a few times. Quillin will be moving around but has a dangerous counter punch which can sneak in. Martinez from a few years ago would turn GGG all night, but not with his dodgy legs now.

      I think GGG takes them all.

        Rosado is taller not bigger, Murray is indeed bigger but punches like Malignaggi. At 160 theres not much competition to be honest.

        That said at 168, Frosh, Kessler and Ward beats him, he is kind of one dimensional and will go as long as his power allows him. I've been saying this since the Ouma fight. I'm not saying he is not a good fighter, I'm saying he is somewhat limited. If he goes down to 154 I see Thurman beating him as well do to styles, the rest he ****s them.

          Cotto will stop Martinez, GGG ****s him at this stage, prime Sergio smokes GGG

            I'd rather Canelo-Cotto myself.

              Canelo-Cotto is a meaningless fight, in the sense that theres no legacy tie to either winning the fight as compare to Cotto-Martinez.

                Good luck finding someone to back him up. IMO Ward is the only guy that can beat him from 160-168.

                  I guess that's how he dropped Martinez twice...

                  Rosado is a big solid guy, he made Quillin look small by comparison and hurt him too.

                  That said at 168, Frosh, Kessler and Ward beats him, he is kind of one dimensional and will go as long as his power allows him. I've been saying this since the Ouma fight.

                  Diego Chaves out-punched Thurman at 147, broke his nose and forced him onto the backfoot, I doubt he would fare well against Golovkin at 154. Thurman's gonna be a great WW though, he'll run through the lot of blown up JWWs moonlighting at 147.

                    Let's be honest Murray did not hurt Martinez, the knockdowns were shots that knocked him off-balance.
