Realistically, guys like Froch, Ward, Mayweather and LeMeiux are disqualified because...

-Froch mulling retirement options
-GGG doesn't want to fight Ward
-Mayweather already ruled the fight out
-ODLH KO'd a LeMeuix fight until late 2016

Also, you gotta eliminate the PBC/Haymon guys:

Erislandy Lara
Daniel Jacobs
Peter Quillen
Dirrell Brothers
Caleb Truax
Maciej Suleck
Hugo Centeno Jr.
Tony Harrison
more I don't care to look up I'm sure :pachaha:


Honestly, I'd KO any chance of him fighting at 168 ANY time soon.

Finally, some guys are busy:

-Andy Lee/Bradley Saunders
-Eubank Jr. is apparently being held up by a Chudonov rematch clause, being granted one non-title fight before hand. Although...

So, who's REALISTICALLY left? Triple G is not, and should not, wait around. He'll probably fight two more times this year, so coming this fall...... who should get that spot?

Timothy Bradley.......... both Bradley and Arum sound serious enough to roll the dice with this one, not sure what weight though. Gotta serve Vargas that L first though.

Tureano Johnson........ skilled boxer, not a big name, most known for outboxing then getting KO'd by Curtis Stevens. He and Gary Shaw are trying their best to sell this fight.

Sam Soliman....... SS will fight anyone, though how his leg/knee is holding up is very unclear. His bout Friday 6/26 should tell us everything we need to know. And to be clear, even if Wade wins, he's PBC.

Jorge Sebastian Heiland........ semi-retired Matthew Macklin with a brutal KO and is from Argentina. Never been stopped and is free.

Arif Magomedov....... "stopped" Darnell Boone in 1, highly touted Amateur star and undefeated. Young, but has gone 12 and been on US TV 2 times. Gotta fight 7/17 though...

Michel Soro........ beat the hell outta Glen Tapia recently and has looked impressive now that he's rejuvenated his career. Current Euro-Champ...... he's black, but would that make him an E-C?.....

Chris Eubank Jr....... although the info stated above is from Chudinov's promoter and not the WBA, even if it's true, he'd be in a situation where his title would not be on the line should he lose to Golovkin.

Oh, and don't worry about "mandatory defenses." He's the SUPER WBA champ, which means he can do as he damn well pleases. WBC got him next in line for the winner of Cotto/Canelo. IBO...... who cares.

I'm allowing people to choose multiple fighters in case more than one sounds intriguing.

If you don't like the choices presented, kindly present another realistic fight for September or October...

Honestly I'd like him to fight 2 more no names this year, just to build up hype for upcoming opponents next yr. I think next yr will be a big year for him, as I see him fighting either cotto/canelo. I don't think he will ever fight Ward so that's completely out.

One of the decent opponents from 160, that is all that is realistically available...unfortunately.

People can say what they will, but this has been the case the last couple years. He has fought the best available at 160. The problem is there isn't a lot available.

And :stopitslime: on ducking Ward. Ward hasn't done anything to attempt to get in the ring with GGG.

im just hoping lee gets by saunders cuz i feel lee has the stones to get into the ring with GGG next and doesn't fear getting his equilibrium thrown to the bushes :obama:..whereas i think saunders will do what cotto and lemieux are already doing and keep that title locked up in euro land

I wouldn't mind him fighting Soro next and then try and get Lee.

If not, fight Soro and put Johnson on the undercard in a rematch with Stevens. Johnson should win and get that shot at GGG for his next fight.

:manny: it's slim pickings.

GGG team is in a fukked up spot all the top guys can make similar or more money elsewhere :manny: I'm pretty sure I remember some gentlemen saying anyone from 154-168 why not go test them super middle waters :cmsas1: not even mentioning #SOG there are a gang of generic eurocacs up there that would fight him.

He'll fight another struggle middle like Toney Jeter the gawd and #shookboys will act like we didn't have to google, youtube and boxrec this nikka :francis:

How is he ducking Ward?... Ward just had a fight at 172?... GGG fights at 160... Do we really expect GGG to move up to just make Ward happy?... and to the fact Ward is not a draw at all... how does this make cents?

Is Floyd ducking GGG cuz he doesnt want to move up?

Ward expects everyone to move up, move down to fight him... i remember Ward saying he would move down to 154 to fight Floyd... why not Ward move down to 160 to fight GGG?
