Lee is a possibility when he returns from his injury. And that assumes that his mandatory, BJS takes a rematch with Eubank Jr. and is not available.Tell us something we dont know. I like GGG but ikinda find that hard to believe that NO ONE will step up. Either his handlers are not making offers to the other title holders outside of Cotto or HBO wont put the money. I mean how long have they been saying this? And they only have one major title? And im not talking about the IBO. So we have the WBC, WBO, & the IBF. I have a hard time believing that Lee wouldnt fight GGG and im pretty sure Ndam or Lemiuex have the cajones to fight him also. If Lemiuex wins i doubt Oscar wants to make that fight tho as he trying to build Lemiuex into a brand..so hopefully Ndam wins that fight. As for Cotto, keep pressuring and force him to vacate(canelo-cotto is just as big without the title). As for Lee, make an offer im sure he'll oblige. GGG needs to focus on 160 and unifying, if that is indeed what he wants. If Monroe will fight him im sure there are tip guys at MW will also.
N'Dam already ducked GGG a number of times and will not be fighting him unless forced to do so. Lemieux would be the better possibility there. But neither of those fights will happen for at least 4 to 6 months as Lemieux - N'Dam are yet to have their fight and Lee is out due to injury.
Lee is not signed to Haymon and there is nothing preventing him from fighting on HBO.
Ward has a 'fight' at the end of June and will not be ready for another for at least another 6 months to a year. Forget about him until mid to late 2016 at the earliest. Time for you to start following what is happening in the sport, don't you think?
Lee - Quillin II would be a fight more worthless than the first one. Quillin did not deserve his last shot at the title and certainly does not deserve a rematch after missing weight the last time. Not to mention that the fight was like watching paint dry and no one wants to see that again.Andy Lee is positioned for many big money fights without Golovkin, and HBO seems unwilling to pony up the money.
Lee vs Saunders/Eubank Jr winner is a massive fight in the UK, and Lee vs Quillin II at the Barclays Center is another big fight to make.
Andy Lee took home $625k for the Quillin fight; doubt that HBO ever becomes willing to compete for that price.
Loeffler has already stated that they are ready to offer Lee an excellent package for a GGG fight. It all depends on when Lee comes back from injury and whether he fights BJS, his mandatory, or is able to take another fight due to BJS's schedule.Comment

I never said he was.
But Lee is with Lou Dibella, and Dibella is aligned with Haymon.
If Haymon's giving him business, you might expect that he wouldn't want Dibella to work with his competitor, and making Golovkin-Lee on HBO would be working with Haymon's competitor.Comment

"I never said I would wouldn't fight him. I would love to fight Triple G. It's about timing. It is about doing things the right way. We're not going to be forced to fight somebody because the fans may want it right then and there or because he may want the fight right then and there." - Danny Jacobs
It's another "I'll fight Golovkin, just not right now" quote that we've grown accustomed to.
Besides, Quillin/Jacobs/Lara are PBC fighters. PBC doesn't fight on HBO.Comment

That's when you know the middleweight division is weak.
When you have a welterweight, a junior middleweight, and Andy f@cking Lee as runner-ups for the Undisputed Middleweight crown.Comment

You may be right but last time I checked Ndam dropped his WBO interim belt in order not to face GGG (Ndam was mandatory)Tell us something we dont know. I like GGG but ikinda find that hard to believe that NO ONE will step up. Either his handlers are not making offers to the other title holders outside of Cotto or HBO wont put the money. I mean how long have they beedamn saying this? And they only have one major title? And im not talking about the IBO. So we have the WBC, WBO, & the IBF.
