Who do you want to see against GGG on May 5th?

[Stinger1]

My guess would be Chavez would be GGG's punch bag for a few rounds.

[NEETzsche]

Derevyanchenko, Andrade or Ramirez would be good. Jacobs, Charlo and Saunders aren't realistic and Spike and Chavez are a waste of time

Kelvin Brook rematch
Connor McGregor
Arthur Abraham
Brandon Rios
Oscar Dela Hoya

[Sancho Puncho]

My first choice would be Saunders for the undisputed middleweight belt, but if Billy is not available, than
in no particular order:
Andrade
Charlo
Derevyanchenko

IMO any of these fighters are better fighters than Clenelo.
They are the next generation of middleweights and are really solid guys.
GGG cleared the division of fighters of his generation, if he manages to beat all fighters of the next generation his legacy in the MW will be cemented for ages. I would like to see GGG fight all of them in the next year or two and then move up.

I voted for Derevyanchenko. Charlo and Jacobs aren't realistic because they already have fights scheduled for this month and it would throw entire cards out of wack. Chavez Jr would be a meaningless fight and cynical cash grab. Spike O'Sullivan needs to earn a shot. He's done nothing to justify it. Rameriez is a good option but it should be for September for that Mexican holiday. Not enough notice to make the fight as big as it could be. September would be perfect.

Derevyanchenko is a mandatory bout GGG has to fight eventually. May as well take care of it now. Andrade would be the next option but he really needs to do more to earn a fight as well.

I opted for Derevyanchenko too. I see him and Andrade as the 2 best realistic options. And of the 2, Derevyanchenko has the right style and approach to make for an explosive fight with GGG.

Charlo and Jacobs are otherwise engaged, and neither seems interested in changing course. Golovkin is currently in training to fight at 160, so that rules out Zurdo at 168. Chavez Jr .. not an interesting fight any more, even assuming he could make the weight in time, which I very much doubt.

GGG vs O'Sullivan would be fun while it lasted, but too much of a foregone conclusion.

I think realism has to be the only factor. Sure, if realism wasn't a factor then Charlo, Saunders and Jacobs would be the best options. But they aren't realistic. As such the best options are Andrade and Sergei D and Sergei D is a mandatory that GGG has to fight eventually anyway. Its just not a pay per view fight unless they stack that undercard. Hard to stack an undercard with a month to go.

Realism is something I think most people here don't seem to get... If we lived in a fantasy world, then the Charlo fight would be most exciting to me. Unfortunately this is the real world, and on one month's notice you're not going to get a top tier opponent who already has a fight scheduled (like Charlo or Danny Jacobs), and you're not going to see him fight a rangy southpaw when he's been training for a short, orthodox opponent for the entire last year. It's going to be O'Sullivan, which sucks. But the crying about it isn't going to make complete sense either.

Maybe the date will help out there? GGG is popular with Mexican fans.

He'd be picking blood out of it for a good week after a fight with GGG.

You're underestimating the power of the handlebar mustache.

[cork]

Oh god I hope it's Charlo. I heard him talking like the fighters don't sign a contract up until a week before the fight. Hope he can pull out of that one and try enforce his wbc Mando.

Wbc was supposed to enforce that after canelo anyways hopefully they do it now.

Ggg give the man his shot the one you were never given when you were trying to make a name!!
