If Bryant Jennings loses, he becomes a gatekeeper though:mjcry:
I know breh :mjcry:

That's the reason why it really hasn't picked up much steam. The talks as of now are preliminary. Money is the main discussion

“I’m speaking to Eddie Hearn about Joshua but it’s only talk,” Shaw told Boxing News. “It’s money… no one is going to get Bryant Jennings on the cheap. Jennings is at a turning point in his career where another loss could be devastating so if he’s going to take real tough fights he’s got to be paid. He is a personable guy, it’d be the US versus Europe and Joshua is a very good fighter; he has the skills. That fight would do well.”

@GREENandYELLOW you my breh but I'm tempted to neg on sight for BATB slander? Bradley is somehow ducking Vargas(who he fought and beat once already), because vargas wanted to run it back, after getting washed?? Is similar to lil g avoiding Lara, who would be; lil g's biggest fight to date, hardest fight to date, most popular opponent, etc. etc. in what way? You call it lil g hate, but clearly it's just calling a spade a spade. Ya boy is routinely shook by step ups :yeshrug:

Yeah playa, you can keep this. Let's call a spade a spade.

Nah fat Dan has to call it a spade first :mjlol:


Who said GGG is ducking Lara?:jbhmm:

I could've swore we said Lara > Tureano Johnson, Dominic Wade, whatever random low tier fighter K2 will bring out of the bushes for GGG's next opponent and y'all GGG stans won't have a problem with.



Does he? Because I could've swore he has only lost to 1 active fighter...Canelo, and Canelo refuses to run it back:jbhmm:

Shall we talk about all the 160 problems David Lemieux had but yall still fought him? What about Willie Monroe?:jbhmm:

How about every fighter, except 7, that GGG has fought in his 34 fight career came into the ring with 2 or more losses on their record....did they still have 160 problems or nah? :jbhmm:




Hmmm, this is interesting considering that Lara has already faced 4 former/current Junior Middleweight Champions in his 26 fight career...while Mr. Mexican Style has only faced 2 former/current Middleweight Champions in his:jbhmm:



Both Charlos and Andrade have both turned down fights against Lara over the past 2 years. And Lara has a better resume than all of em and is ranked higher than all of em on any list....but he's thought of as lesser?:jbhmm:



*scans names of the horrible fighters GGG has defended the belt against, including a washed up Kassim Ouma who was 1 fight removed from 154 and 2-5 in his last 7 bouts before getting an immediate shot at GGG's Championship:jbhmm:*




Ducking Lara? Who's said this?:jbhmm:

By the way Im sure everyone who is a Boxing head, and NOT a GGG stan, knows that GGG vs Lara is a much better matchup than GGG vs Ousmanu Adama...but yet Adama was "deserving" of a shot while Lara isnt:jbhmm:




Wlad fought the best opponents around his weight class for years...same with Bradley. They have respected and thorough resumes.

Are we putting GGG's name in the same breath as those two when talking opponents? :jbhmm:



It's called a duck when you are willing to fight Carl Froch, Julio Cesar Chavez Jr, and James DeGale at the full Super Middleweight limit AND in their hometowns...but you aren't willing to do so for the (at the time) Super Middleweight Kingpin. You want him to drain down to a catchweight in order to fight:jbhmm:



Hide?:jbhmm:


I could've swore Canelo has been on record saying he will not fight 1lb over or under 155, and has subsequently fought every opponent since September 2013 at a 155 catchweight:jbhmm:


What makes you think that a guy who can barely sell 150k on PPV, is gonna get him to change his stance when he's even said this in regards to a rematch with Floyd?:jbhmm:





You aware that a RNS/Haymon fighter will never do business due to their dealings in the music industry right?:jbhmm:

Those fighters you named are Haymon's...it won't happen.



Really? Is that how the situation played out? Or was it that Froch said he knows he cant beat Ward on the cards & he wouldn't fight Ward again, who previously beat him clearly with a broken right hand the 1st time, unless it was in Nottingham....the same place Andre Dirrell was robbed in the Super 6...and Froch would also get the larger split:jbhmm:






I could've swore Ward said numerous times he would fight GGG at 168 and Team GGG kept demanding it to be at 164.:jbhmm:

Argument completely shut down with facts. :banderas:

Hmm now GGG is willing to go fight at 168? I personally suspect he is having some issues with weight now like he is outgrowing 160 so they want to test the waters :jbhmm:
