  • Who will GGG fight next?

    Cotto and Canelo are out. Haymon fighters are out because HBO won't let him fight off of their network. If Lemiuex wins i would think Oscar would try and build him up a little before allowing him to get KTFO. Only opponents i can think of are Heiland, tuerano johnson, andy lee possibly. Mentioning Ward is an extremely tiring subject. Virgil Hunter confirmed Ward needs a few tuneups before negotiations can begin. Who does GGG fight next?

      Filter to JMW's on boxrec and hit refresh till you find one who is feather fisted and has no skill whatsoever and there is your fight.

        Well, we can rule out a fight with Mr. BET.
        He's due 1 or 2 more 172lb tune ups, so he won't be available until 2016. That's if he stays healthy

            JMW? How do you come up with that logic?

              Youd think if K2 is true to what GGG wants to do it'd be for 1 of the remaining belts, Cottos not in the equation and Lee might have Saunders next so hopefully it the winner of Lemiuex/ N'Dam but At this point I wouldn't be suprised if it was another Monroe level opponent.

                Ok, but name me a legit opponent who actually WANTS the fight with GGG. At some point, we need to put the blame squarely on the other fighters at/around his weight class. I honestly don't know how people can be harsh on GGG considering the situation he's in.

                Ward can't fight him because he's tied up and will be taking on tune-up fights. Cotto/Canelo are probably set to fight in the fall if Cotto beats Geale (who GGG absolutely reamed), Lara is a Haymon fighter and fighting a weight class below. Can somebody please name me a legit opponent that is realistic for GGG at this moment?

                I hope he continued to fight whoever is available as often as possible to stay in fight shape. When the fight that he wants finally arrives he'll be ready. The best we can currently hope for is Lee, N'Dam or Lemiuex. I wish we could get a bout between GGG and Peter Quillin but it aint gonna happen for a variety of reasons.

                  Well, you did a good job at covering the common excuses, save for "no one wants to fight him". I don't think his team wants him to fight anyone challenging unless it's an easy payday. I like the guy, a lot, but the hype is nauseating because he's taken zero challenges. I don't mind the Mike Tyson, can crushing factor, but I can't truly take him seriously until he starts putting the excuses aside and starts taking real fights. And, that's the frustrating part, I WANT to see him shine.

                    Can you name a fight that would satisfy you that is currently possible after GGG's fight on sat?
