First of all, I thought GGG won that fight.
I think GGG's problem (when he's not fighting stiff hittable guys like the Wade or Rubios of the world) is that he's a jabber and is not getting full credit for his great jab work, dude is not flashy or nice, but he's outboxing cats.
Nelo's problem despite all the talent he has is dude does lack stamina and I thought he did look sometimes disinterested.
I based my choice on what is best for both fighters:
GGG best options:
1. Cotto : Money, legacy, experience
2. Saunders : last belt, and maybe the easier fight out there.
3. Charlo : would close a crazy run for 2017 and that fight would be dope.
GGG should have a rematch with DJ but it would be 3 hard battles in a row and probably the hardest fight at 160, so better wait for 2018.
I don't think GGG should rematch Nelo, or at least not in Vegas. Dude hardly collected 4 belts and might end robbed. He won according to a huge percentage of the fans but also insiders, so fck GBP.
Nelo best options:
1. Saunders: not the hardest fight at 160, a WBO belt to lure GGG in to a later rematch
2. Brook: easy work, decent fight
3. Cotto rematch
He should wait GGG to age a bit more and get some experience at 160.
Nelo should go nowhere near DJ because Jacobs would be a bad match up for Nelo.
Jacobs is a bit of a mover and is 4 inches taller.
