GGG's promoter has already said flat out, no room for nuance, and 100% undeniable that GGG will not fight Charlo. This despite the fact that a win against Charlo would automatically get him a 3rd fight with Canelo and if Canelo refused GGG would be given the WBC title. Also, beating Charlo would add to his legacy and resume plus it would go a long way in revitalizing his career after his his loss to Canelo. But as we all know GGG does not like to challenge himself as he is obsessed with Canelo.
As I recall Arum and Zoro has stated numerous times over the past year and a half that they would love to fight GGG, but once again GGG and his promoter have refused to entertain the idea.Comment

This is a myth that needs to die. Other than Zurdo vs. Canelo on one of the Mexican Holidays there is no other opponent for either guy that could sell around a million PPVs. With that being said, Canelo would still pick GGG first because GGG is smaller than Zurdo and Canelo already beat him once.

A trilogy fight is a foregone conclusion. As long as both guys want it its going to happen. No other fighter or sanctioning body will get in the way of that. Too much money to be made.
The answer to both of these is the likelyhood that GGG will sign with DAZN. With DAZN he has access to all of the main belt holders at 160 (Canelo with the WBC and WBA, Danny Jacobs with the IBF and Demetrious Andrade with the WBO) as well as at least one of the 168 pound champions in Callum Smith. To fight Ramirez would mean signing with ESPN who has no one else for GGG to fight other than Zurdo. PBC has a better stable than ESPN by far but the vast majority of GGG's potential opponents are either a weight class below or above GGG.As I recall Arum and Zoro has stated numerous times over the past year and a half that they would love to fight GGG, but once again GGG and his promoter have refused to entertain the idea.Last edited by yankees7448; 11-12-2018, 10:01 AM.Comment

How a true champion and great fighter behaves after losing 2 close fights and losing his middleweight titles:
After Bernard Hopkins lost twice to Jermain Taylor in close fights losing his middleweight titles in the process he immediately moved up two weight classes and a mere 6 months after losing to Taylor he defeated the consensus #1 light heavyweight in the world Antonio Tarver to win the light heavyweight title. He then beat the middle weight champion Kelly Pavlik at a catch weight. He went on to beat Winky Wright, after losing the light heavyweight title he re-captured the title beating Jean Pascal. He also added 1 more light heavyweight title to his career at 175lbs. Most importantly whether you like him or hate him as he was fast approaching 50yrs old Hopkins fought only the best fighters at 175lbs.
How a fraud and hyped up fighter behaves after a draw and losing a close fight and losing his middleweight titles:
Gennady Golovkin demands an immediate 3rd fight, complains and cries how he was robbed in both fights. When not given an immediate rematch by the WBC and the WBC informs him the winner of himself ad Charlo would fight Canelo he flat out refuses to fight Charlo. He refuses to fight Andrade another titlist, he refuses to move up a division and take on new challenges for any title at 168lbs. In fact, he instead sought out to fight an unproven Japanese fighter named Ryota Murata who only had 14 fights, but GGG's plans were spoiled when Murata was ko'd by an average fighter named Rob Bryant on October 20th. The impression now is that GGG will refuse to fight anyone of note unless he gets his way with an immediate 3rd fight with Alvarez.
Now tell me who is the real great middleweight between the two above named fighters?Last edited by jdp28tx; 11-12-2018, 10:27 AM.Comment
