    But my question is if you think Golovkin will agree to take the fight? You still haven't answered that.
    It would be a good fight, as I already said it would be my preference as a fan for sure - but to answer a question presupposes one accepts the premise of that question and the terms in which it's framed, which I don't.

    Assuming Jermall is willing to fight GGG and financial terms are agreeable to both sides (which may be a sticking point) I think it's likely the fight happens. Certainly I've no reason to believe of these guys are going to shy away from a difficult fight, though I think Jermall might be smart to fight at least one live body at 160 first.

        Well, the fight has been ordered by the WBC so let's see what happens.

        If it doesn't come about it should be fairly clear which party is to blame.

            Ha well, blame's a funny thing, now isn't it? In my experience everyone will find a way to spin it so that their guy isn't to 'blame' and be entirely sincere in believing what they're saying. Honestly the real exercise of the blame game is to try and score points off other groups of posters and is pretty much meaningless in the context of the world outside of NSB... Far as I'm concerned the fight either happens or doesn't, the reasons are pretty much of academic interest only.

                First of all the the WBC and their rankings have been a joke lately. 2nd both Canelo and GGG took some massive punishment from their rematch, they need some R & R so I doubt we'll be seeing them in any big matches soon.

                Instead of jumping the gun with Canelo or GGG, why not push for Charlo vs Andrade or Jaobs-Drev winner? Those are some good matches right there.

                  Canelo fighting in Dec and he owns the Cinco de mayo date. He will be fighting someone with a name by then.

                  Ggg took a beating? According to the fans and ESPN, he won. Why can't he stay active and fight charlo? Then may date with Canelo makes sense. All other scenarios point to ggg fighting more bums.

                    GGG promoter will be ringside at Murata fight this weekend. The ducking has begun. If Murata win all but guranateed GGG fights that bum wonder why Loeffler won't be ring side at Jacobs fight or Andrade fight? He ducking Charlo, Jacobs rematch and Andrade.

                      Don't know about this Murata fight, but I think it is overrated in terms of cash.

                      I believe the Charlo is much bigger financially. Don't know what GGG and Loeffler are thinking if they pick Murata.
