Triple Queen should stop cherry picking & fight BJS.
If GGG doesn’t get Canelo, who should he fight?

there are many options between 160-168, munguia is not one of them, you ggg fans should be pushing for the best fights available, enough with the mediocre opposition...I know everyone is going to say Charlo or Andrade, or maybe Brant or Sergiy D. or Jacobs 2, but I’m going to look at this as a promoter and someone trying to protect GGG’s potential shot at Canelo.
I think he should fight Jaime Munguia and I would say fight him in Mexico.
Munguia is young and flawed and in a smaller weight class. But he’s got a pretty record and a title.
The most popular narrative surrounding him is that he was the GGG opponent that the NSAC didn’t approve but then proved himself by winning a title at 154. Lets face it, only the guys who really pay attention know he’s struggled recently and that Sadam Ali flamed out.
I think it’s a sure thing victory for GGG and I think only the people who really follow boxing would criticize Munguia as an opponent. I think it could reignite the Canelo rivalry a bit with a national revenge narrative and also the Golden Boy Promotions revenge narrative.
And if I was Munguia, I would take that fight. You have nothing to lose, no one expects him to win. GGG is old and probably as ripe for the picking as he’ll get. That chance likely isn’t coming again. And if he does win, he’ll fight Canelo next and be a fight away from being the biggest thing in boxing.
It all totally makes sense to me.
Tell me who you would fight next if you were GGG.Last edited by icha; 06-26-2019, 01:55 PM.Comment

but if the fight happens the usual gggroupies will somehow make it look like its a good match... it happened with vanes and rolls already... if canelo fights andrade i want to see ggg fans pushing for charlo or jacobs rematch... and if canelo fights and beats andrade and ggg doesnt fights someone worth then i hope canelo doesnt give ggg a 3rd fight...Comment

Golovkin built his entire rep on being this fighting Boogeyman that everyone refused to fight; any promoter worth their salt will keep building that myth, ducking any true perceived risks (before getting to the risky money fights).I know everyone is going to say Charlo or Andrade, or maybe Brant or Sergiy D. or Jacobs 2, but I’m going to look at this as a promoter and someone trying to protect GGG’s potential shot at Canelo.

Tell me who you would fight next if you were GGG.
Lara starting to show his age (even though the skills are still there), Chris Eubank Jr (crude 160/168lbs fighter, who does have a name), and then look for biggest 168lb fighter that you can (regardless of skill, find a 6'4/6'5 guy if you can).

Best post on this thread! 😂I think you are a waste of life suggesting such an easy fight for ggg! Remember the Cotto days when you people called him a Diva and pretended Cotto was ruining the sport by not fighting ggg well now you fake boxing fans are doing it way more to the extreme. Your protecting a payday for ggg is sickening and just wrong. Worse fan base by far no honor what so everComment
