Eubank Jr.? are you serious?Right now, his resume is horrible. Like, absolutely horrible, so bad that his fans should feel ashamed of even trying to cook up excuses for it. His 3 best wins are Brook, Murray and Lemieux. It's pathetic. Now, I do like Golovkin, though, so I think it would be fair to list the guys I want him to fight. If he beats any of these, they will become his signature win and his first good win:
- Saunders
- Jacobs
- Canelo
- Lara
- Sulecki
- Eubank
- DeGale
- Jack
- Ramirez
- Ward
These are 10 opponents who all would be his signature win if he defeated them. Some are from the weight below him, some are from his own weight, some are from the weight above him... Nevertheless, those are the absolutely best options for him and he should be able to make at least 3-5 of them fight him.Comment

Based upon what? You gotta be talking about the eye test, cos that's all Chris has going for him right now. I think Jr is a serious contender at the weight, but he's less proven than Macklin, Murray, Geale or hell, even Lemieux.
H2H I might fancy him against any of them, but there ain't much to back that up with.Comment

The most clever golovkin haters focus on ward and kovalev as the fights they want, because they know they will never happen and they can always say they arent happy with golovkins opponents. Where as the people who said he should fight jacobs are now panicking cause the fights been made, and expect a lot of people to start downplaying caenlo if that fight gets made too.Comment
