Therefore, the road to beat Bhops record is 2 more fights. Seeing how Bernard behaves in general and has say with matchmaking at Golden Boy, GGG vs Alvarez will happen in 2018.
Worst case scenario is GGG gets injured in the Charlo fight or against Murata that jeopardizes the Sept. fight.
I agree that Nelo should fight GGG in may, but Loeffler nor Abel nor Oscar are trolling gossip about failed negotiations. That fact alone states all parties are at fault behind the scenes and Nelo can't be blamed unless Abel leaks an insinuation that it's not May.
If Nelo snatches the WBO from the winner of Lemieux BJS, then complete undisputed unification in Sept. is bad?
Or do GGG fans prefer that Nelo beats GGG in May, and GBP restructures Nelo?
the 160 division is heated at the moment.
I think it's a 50/50 toss that GGG might actually fight Murata. Nelo has the right to exercise the clause, but he didnt perform poorly!! Nelo is in a win win situation by the simple fact that their tape is archived for future generations to see that GGG couldnt hurt the shorter Mexican who debuted from 140!
