    So, are you saying you don't want GGG to be active? Or are you skeered for your hero? Fighters usually duck GGG. THIS guy wants to fight him. How is that a bad thing? The guy is a great boxer, and GGG has trouble with that style. I say test him. What's he got to lose besides a few belts? He's the boogyman, right? Then let him fight a guy who wants to fight him.

      I believe Jacobs counted for the WBC?

      Probably the winner of the Murata Hassan Ndam Njkam will have to be next??? They'll probably give GGG A couple of weeks to either drop the belt or negotiate???
      The mandos are negotiated, so its not clear. Its possible that all of the commissions allowed Canelo to count as a mandatory (it meets all of their criteria, just has to be agreed with them), and might be why Golovkin put up all the belts. If so, he doesn't have mandatory obligations right now.

      He's got Charlo, and I think Derevyanchenko is the IBF, but like Canelo, Saunders could also be negotiated to count as a mando too.

      Its that flexible.

        Would love to see this simoly because i would enjoy watching GGG demolish Saunders.

        Easy money for GGG. If the canelo rematch is not till May then would love for GGG to beat the crao out of Billy

          GGG you won against Canrunner 8-4 you are the middleweight champ. He has no middle belts he is already hinting he will take his time for rematch clause which only he was allowed pus.

            Now let's say Saunders is offered Canelo and Golovkin in the U.S. for the same money. Who do you think he would pick? I think he goes with Canelo.
            Yeah i'm thinking along the same lines. I think he would see more money in a Canelo fight and opt for that option.

                    Jeez, no idea, but the value to GBP is huge:

                    1) gets slice of a Cotto fight for a title (Cotto being a PPV draw)
                    2) GBP double dip in a Cotto v Canelo II world title fight
                    3) process that sees Golovkin get another year older
                    4) process that gets the WBO belt to Canelo as a negotiating chip for a Golovkin rematch

                    That's got to have some value to GBP. What value ? Only their business plans/projections can say. But it might rival what Golovkin is willing to pay. Either way Saunders gets his payday, and even at 157, might view a Vegas date with Cotto as more self-approving than a date in Kazakhstan, and possibly more winnable (he won't, GBP knows that).
