I'm sympathetic to your belief, but this isn't the art of fighting without fighting. I would like to see GGG in with some more experienced, resilient opposition and not with anymore Monroe's. Who BTW, had only two ten-round fights before facing GGG.
The MW division is lacking for sure, but there needs to be a track record of notable wins before someone is crowned.
Out of the whole bunch, Jacobs would be the best and sternest test.
Quillen, Lee or Lemieux could KO him. N'Dam N'Jikam, Korobov or Eubank could outbox him. Jacobs could do either. Could, not would. But I'd be impressed if he went through this lot undefeated. After Cotto, of course.
Out of that list, looks like the only realistic opponent would be Lee or Heiland next.
Middleweight sucks and Haymon has 2 guys who at least would bring a name in Jacobs and Quillen and they still haven't even fought each other even though it's been talked about for Over a year now.
Sad....
