    This fights Wack sauce.

    Cool it's a mandatory and I'll watch because I'm a GGG fan , hope Taeureno puts up a good fight but for me this isn't a compelling match up and the same caliber of fighter I've come to expect from K2 to put Gennady in with.

    Said it about people that were co-signing Crawford / Lundy if your giving this the thumbs up then you cant complain about many boxing matches being made

      4) BJS - gun git peid
      5) Heiland - lol. No money, no titles, 4 losses.
      6) Lemieux - done that
      7) Andy Lee - doesn't have a belt, and his promoter would never make the fight bc it has a high chance of putting Lee on a losing streak from which will be hard to recover
      8) Quillin - Haymon
      9) Eubanks - big mouth, nothing else
      10 Geale - done that.

      And once again..
      Exactly. He is a pretty good fighter. Peeps bring up Stevens, but it was a very bad stoppage and be was dominating Stevens until that point, while being up close and personal with Stevens, not outboxing him. I don't have an issue with this fight the more I think about it. He is an infighter and GGG has not fought a true infighter yet. If Tureano can get inside without taking much damage getting inside he could make it interesting

        OP jumped the gun it's not official yet. They are still negotiating with BJS too even though BJS wants a thousand billion dollars.

If it wasn't for the TKO loss to Stevens I would've given Johnson a bit of a chance to give GGG some problems because of his style, but if you don't have A level chin, stamina and punch resistance against GGG it's a short night for you. Would be funny if they try to make a PPV out of this, GGG will be at least 25-1 favorite (which is not the first time) going into the fight.
          i remember there was talk about having johnson face n'dam in a final eliminator, which i wish had happened now as it would have gone a long way towards legitimising him as a challenger

            It's a mandatory blah blah blah. It's still a crap ass fight and it's still gonna one half of his scheduled fights for a whole year. And let's stop acting like Golovkin would get stripped if he didn't fight Johnson. He wouldnt. No1 cares about this fight enPugh to enforce it.

                    Obviously you don't have a clue how the IBF works. The only ass here is you talking out of yours. LOL. Is it a perfect fight? Nope, but there are worse on the horizon. Canelo vs Rosado anyone?

                      another mis-mandatory...what else is new in boxing

                      The IBF aint no hoe though....they'll strip quicker than a college student on food stamps


                      after this fight though, its put up or shut the fuvk up...him, his team and his fans.....if he is gonna stay at 160, he needs to fight either Canelo, Jacobs, or Saunders this year.....Hell I'd take Lee and Qullin too , they'd be his best opponents to do date
