You're trolling but I'll entertain this. Rameriz has the size advantage over Golovkin, is a strong puncher, and beaten some decent fighters and showed his mettle vs a top 15 LHW in Vlasov.
Johnson has done nothing and he brings nothing. People somehow think he'll be capable of smothering Golovkin like he did Curtis Stevens and that Golovkin can't fight inside. Johnson gets stopped in 2-3 rounds. Watch Johnson's fight with Mike Gavronski, it's a joke that's he's being considered to fight Golovkin. I think one reason Gary Shaw hasn't kept Johnson more active is he's afraid it'll bring Johnson's market value down. He hasn't even fought/beaten names on par to the ones Rameriz was beating like Edwards, Findley, Zuniga, Lorenzo, or UpShaw. Those five guys beat the brakes off Gavronski or Theran.
Yes to you its a joke... Did you feel the same about GGG fighting Monroe Jr? Boxcino tournament winner doe.
He's got a mandatory with Billy Joe Saunders in Ireland in September.
So take your pick.
Looks like Leo Santa Cruz opponents.
This thread is easy to poke fun at Golovkin knowing Cotto turned down Golovkin, as did Froch, Lemieux and pretty much everyone else worth a damn. Not many options right now.
GGG will fight another middleweight contender, whoever the best available choice may be. He will not pick a gimmick fight and definitely will not be changing weight division for a non PPV fight. Blame him or his management team all you want, but no management team out there would be able to do any better. Fighters like Cotto simply do not have the balls required to step in the ring and Lemieux may well be willing but he would have to break with Oscar to be able to get the fight. K2 cannot force anyone to fight him and neither can anyone else.
Ward is not ready and may never be, Froch is retiring instead of taking the fight. The only fight I could see him taking at SMW would be against DeGale but I doubt DeGale would accept either.
I would figure someone like Johnson or Heiland. At least those two will give it their best shot. I only hope that this time GGG listens to his critics and doesn't sit back or take a break during the fight and goes in the ring with the intention of ending the fight as soon as possible. It is obvious from the Monroe fight that even trying to show some vulnerabilities is not enough to draw in the 'brave' fighters out there so he may as well go all out this time.

I wasn't at all happy about Monroe, but he had a style that made the fight a little intriguing going in. Johnson & Heiland are a level below Monroe. Monroe was a blue-chip prospect in the amateurs and breezed his way past Bondorvous, Kopylenko, Adams, and Vera. That at least tells you he's levels better than those guys.
Johnson was not near as impressive vs Gavronski or Theran. He was caught and hurt bad vs Stevens. Heiland's taken losses vs other journeymen and the style he beat Macklin & Godoy with would mean **** against Golovkin. I rate Adama well above those two. He's atleast durable as **** and has a good jab and proven himself to be able to hang with guys like Geale, Karmazin, George and Davis.
