    Mora doesn't make sense because his style sucks and he hasn't been in contention lately. Geale would work in an exciting fight but I guess HBO don't think he is a big name. He is only know to me from Sturm so if I don't know then maybe Americans don't.
    thus GGG is the most protected fighter!

      Mora is a possibility but that guy has been inactive from my memory and is **** anyway. Vera level. Make some noise and it could happen. Not even sure who he last fought
      He beat Proksa in June (on ESPN I think) and then he fought in November too.

      Honestly, if HBO accepted the Proksa fight then they could do the same with Mora. Mora has never been KO'd that would be an excellent feather in Golovkin's cap.

      Obviously, the Geale fight would be the better option though.

          Who is the most over-protected boxer right now?
          Out of that list, for sure Wilder.

          Some of them other guys, I just chalk them not getting fights up to having ****ty handlers.

              Definitely he is, he needs to move up and stop crying at the weaker 160 division.

                he can stay at 160 or go to 168-I just want HBO to stop the BS. to have him as FOTY and a top 5 p4p is nauseating given who he has defeated.

                Im angry at HBO not GGG-who I think is a very talented highly skilled fighter.

                    For me its got to be Kell Brook. I hope that's about to change if he decides to fight Porter and what would be much more for the fans if he were to face Keith Thurman.

                      Rigo is protected. His team keep avoiding the big fights.
                      David Haye is protected too.
                      Rigo is not being protected .. There is no one at 122lb he won't face. You must be talking bout 126 lb where he has never fought and that's not really fare..
