Who should Gennady Golovkin fight next?

[ИATAS]

It's because whenever he doesn't get the fight he wants, he chooses a lower tiered opponent to stay busy rather than taking really short money to fight a MW or going up in weight and challenging himself.

what middleweight?

[Dirk Diggler UK]

There are a lot of good names out there, but I agree with you, OP, that Lemieux and Eubank JR seem like the most probable

They're not "probable" at all. Golden Boy were never going to throw Lemieux straight in with Golovkin and Eubank Jr is a kid

[FrankieClutch]

I really want the Lemieux fight

[Baltimore]

Obviously a unification with Lemieux would be ideal.

Yep, that's my vote. I don't think Oscar will let Lemieux fight GGG next unfortunately though.

[The Big Dunn]

what middleweight?

What if GGG did what Kov (bellew) did and offered to fight either cotto or canelo for a 95/5 split. Maybe they'd be more inclined but I guess that isn't likely. That's why I said go to 168 and fight Chudinov.

you know Lemeuix and GBP are not fighting GGG next.

[Dirk Diggler UK]

Yep, that's my vote. I don't think Oscar will let Lemieux fight GGG next unfortunately though.

You don't think? We already know this. Oscar has confirmed. ****, most people with their heads screwed on knew before Lemieux even won the title.

Tom Loeffler certainly would have known so Golovkin's next fight against a fisherman might as well have the tagline "but we tried to fight Lemieux doe"

Lara wants the fight. They should actually try and make it for once. If not, Hopkins at 168 - I don't understand why GGG's team never talk about that fight. Hopkins still has a name.

Here we go again. Dirk with his 20 pages of "but Lara doe"

[SouthPawHitman]

Gennady Golovkin vs. Spike O'Sullivan is the fight to make in the middleweight division.

[BattlingNelson]

Lemieux. Definetely. Bombs away!

[The Big Dunn]

Here we go again. Dirk with his 20 pages of "but Lara doe"

But he is absolutely right. GGG fans will tell you why the Lara and Ward fight can't get made for a week, then suggest Lemuiex next knowing ODH is on record as saying they are going in a different direction.

GGG can't get what he wants-that means no Lemuiex, Cotto, chavez jr., Canelo or Floyd next. Knowing that, what should he do instead:

Find a way to make Lara or ward, garbage MW stay busy or go to 168 and find a tough challenge?
