Latest update on GGG-Chavez, everyone that I asked today that has anything to do with it, sounds VERY confident it will happen July 12th..

no problem paying to watch ggg against a good fighter, def worth the money. i wonder how ward feels seeing how froch vs groves and ggg vs chavez is going down while he's watching from the sidelines missing out on that bread. must suck lol.

Nice to hear the fight will be in California and not Texas the ref could still be a concern letting JCC get away with ball punching but at least the worst state commission in the USA isn't a factor.

Seems like this fight is actually happening, rather surprised

They need one of these firework shows in northern California.

Well hopefully GGG retires Chavez JR. I hope GGG does not damage JR to a point where he can't live a normal life after boxing. Also, why not Ward vs GGG? Ward wants it but GGG does not.

Anyone down for lomachenko/russell jr on the undercard??

The only MW Top Rank has close to title contention is Matvey Korobov and he was mentioned as a possible future Golovkin opponent around time of the Monaco fight. Having him face someone like Lee could set up a title shot for him once Golovkin goes back down to MW and if he beats Chavez i don't think guys like Geale and Murray will be any more eager to step up and face him. Win win for K2 and Top Rank.

In his last fight Korobov stopped Edwards who went on to KO SMW prospect Jack afterwards.

They also have Gilberto Ramirez (Zanfer/TR) and he's moving along pretty well. I hope they don't put him in there with Golovkin though. He's pretty good, huge MW.

I said it before I'll say it again GGG is making a mistake accepting the fight at 168...
