          Why does GGG need a tune-up? He fought 4 times in 2013, & 3 times in years 2014 & 2015.

            I expect GGG's next fight to be either his IBF mandatory Tureano Johnson, or Andy Lee (provided he wins vs BJS) for a unification match. Both should be good scraps while they last.

              Read first Post

              The title of the thread is misleading. The thread starter meant to say who would be a good tune up for Canelo to prepare themselves for GGG.

              Honestly i think someone like Lemiux or Toreano Johnson. though they both might be too dangerous. Lemiux has good power and Canelo can see if he can also avoid it and figure **** out, will also have a common name on the resume and see how he does. As far as Toreano he is a good fighter, he is also a pressure fighter who will try to push Canelo around. other than that i don't know who else can prepare him even remotly (maybe jacobs, but that's also a very risky fight) prepare him for GGG.

                    Style wise, nobody comes close to what GGG brings to the table.

                    Chudinov and especially Lemieux bring the power so that would be something...
                    yes thats what I meant, sounded good in my head when I typed it but I can see how it was misconstrued.

                      Fair play to the guy in your avatar, first champion I've seen with no arms. Guess that knocks Ricky Hatton off the top spot.
