    Golovkin fights: (title fights are bolded, super fights are underlined)

    (At 168)- Andre Ward, Carl Froch, George Groves, Julio Cesar Chevez Jr., Mikkel Kessler, any other smw

    (At 160)- Sergio Martinez, Peter Quillin, Felix Sturm, Martin Murray, Daniel Geale, Darren Barker, Andy Lee

    (At 154)-Floyd Mayweather Jr., Erislandy Lara, James Kirkland, Carlos Molina, Canelo Alvarez

    Personally, I think all the names above are good fights, with the weakest being Lee and Kirkland. He still has three more fights this year, so I'm confident he'll get a unification bout by then.

Andy Lee is to slow...lacks the stamina and power to be in with GGG and gets KO'd before 6 rounds.
      Well his top 5 mandatories are:

      #1 - Murray
      #2 - Chudinov
      #3 - Fletcher
      #4 - Geale
      #5 - Nielson

      Murray and Geale said 'no', so that leaves Chudinov, Fletcher and Nielson. No one wants to see those fights.

Most of them are convinced they're the top guy, anyway...I thought it'd be funny if Golovkin got to KO each one of them and if Lee gets the GGG fight, it looks like he'd be half way to completing that prophecy of mine.
        Sadly Barker is barking no more...shame, woulda been an OK fight for GGG that one.

        Maravilla could still get the set if he wanted, but I doubt Lee's anywhere in his plans.

          ESPN is saying Lee is most likely next. It will be interesting to see the response if this fight gets made.

          Andy Lee has fought 3 straight journeymen since he got destroyed by Chavez. He has done more subway commercials than fights in the last year. He i less of an opponent than Stevens.

          Is this really who the most feared man in the sport, the guy will fight anyone from 154- 168 is going to fight next? If so, I would hope his diehard fans are outraged.

              He was winning that fight on all three cards.

                He doesn't have to fight a mandatory, I'd take Mora over any of these guys but if you can't get him then I'd take Lee....if not even those 2 then I'd go for any of these mandatories, still miles better than some no-name 154 pounder with 7 losses or some ****.

                Oh and Geale said no, Muray said he couldn't fight in the US cos of visa issues and GGGs team and HBO want the fight in the US. And that's about as far as the negotiations went before both sides moved on.

                  Well you'll be happy with his fight on April 26th then.

                    It's a better fight than almost all those he'd had in his career, hope it gets made.

                    Even Kirkland would be better than the rubbish he's been fed, actually that would probably be the more brutal fight

                      Kirkland is supposedly on the undercard, and is being lined up to fight Golovkin after Lee, assuming both win.
