I would add that I don't even think Charlo is on GGG's radar at all. GGG wants that Canelo rematch and will want a Lemieux/BJS unification (assuming he beats Canelo). I think GGG would love the talk of Cotto wanting the GGG-Canelo winner. Honestly I don't think it would be a duck at all, they aren't in GGG's world at all right now.

The way to do it is to make yourself a mandatory and force a fight. Otherwise, career wise or financially GGG has little motivation in the next year to year and a half.


Jermall is already WBC ranked #1 :stopitslime:

Jermall next fight is for the WBC interim...GGG fought scary ass never was Rubio for that WBC belt :comeon:


I don't wanna hear zero "bu bu bu bu buts" from GGG stans

Cry bout being a Mando when it's y'all but look down on Mandos N "not on radar for 1 1/2 more years" when it's your time :hhh:


Dominic Wade tho...we do that mando ASAP :martin:

But McCall was a big motherfukker...frazier was a small heavy in his prime
Granite chin that. I just don't know how well these big guys would do in 15 round fights
Holmes was tailor made for Frazier.

I don't see any outboxer being able to beat Frazier...outside of MAYBE Lennox because of the difference in size & power...and he was a better (and dirtier) infighter than Holmes & Ali.

But if McCall can put Lewis on his ass...so could Frazier .
Not to mention Frazier is more inense than ken norton who holmes went life and death with. You would be hard pressed to find a fighter of any era that was as relentless as frazier not named homocide hank. Matter of fact how many times was Frazier outpointed/outhustled? But imo Holmes seemed more lethal than Ali and had an underrated chin and the GOAT jab. Ali's uppercut was not so good and frazier exploited that a ton but holmes got a good one.

Matter of fact why didn't frazier and norton fight?

Porter, Pryor, Tyson... come to my mind first as other relentless pressure fighters

How about a matchup like prime Liston vs prime Frazier? Would it ended up the same was as Frazier vs Foreman? If so what about Luston vs Foreman?

True but remember joyce in there with a tough experienced guy. Doesn't have too much power though
He was in there with a tougher opponent on his first ever pro fight, it was also a 10 rounder I can't criticize dude...
Eventually he broke Lewison down and before that he boxed his ears off, showed good fundamentals, punch variety, jab and stamina. I think he is just not a slugger but a boxer type of fighter which is okay cause that's always welcomed in the usually sloppier hw division.
Don't have monster power but again... that was a tough opponent and he still btoke him down so he doesn't have pillow fists either

Oh yeah Pryor was an anomaly as well. I think his style would have given sugar ray leonard problems
Foreman vs Liston shyt............. I remember Foreman saying no one gave him that much trouble in the ring until Ron Lyle. Liston was a serious problem with that battering ram jab and underrated ring generalship. George may take this though

True. I just hope they don't rush him too fast but he is kinda older. You see Tony Yoka?
