Good fight. I'm glad he's getting back on the horse and taking advantage of these opportunities. He could have fought a string of bums and been a laughing stock, but he's going after the top guy.

I don't mind this at all. Gonzalez isn't as good as Lomachanko. Even though Gary has done nothing at all to deserve this fight.... but.. Haymon.

I like this fight! Its a winnable fight for gary imo.

agreed looks like haymon is actually having his fighters fight people now i had a feeling he was just hyping them up for the nbc run didnt wanna waste anything on other networks but i could be fooled

[GoldenGloveLove]

hahah at hating on this fight. He needs to fight better fighters! He needs to fight less better fighters before he fights better fighters so he deserves fighting better fighters! lol

1st the complaints were he is not fighting anyone...now he is fighting a world champion and it is a problem??

He just lost a fight for a belt. He didn't earn the first title shot, he didn't earn this one. There's levels to this. It can't be either TBA or a championship fight. This is the Wilder treatment. They don't want him sinking before he even gets to the title fight. This is the pattern with guys who people don't have faith in.

Fight bums -> avoid opponents who could prevent you from ever reaching a title fight in the first place -> Fight endless undeserved title shots. Hopefully someday you'll get lucky and hit the jackpot with enough title shots.

He wants another title fight? Lomachenko would be glad to give this can beater a rematch.

RIP Gary.

Tough fight to call

Jhonny is dangerous early but he can be outboxed

I like this package deal for Gonzalez, but facing Russell first I don't think he fights Mares or LSC. If this fight happens I gotta go with Russell Jr by decision.
