MW after Golovkin ?

Post by ValMar »

It could be rather interesting. There are several names : Canelo, Lemiuex, Charlo twin 1, Jacobs, Saunders. Some fighters from LMW will probably move up : Lara, Andrade, Charlo twin 2. I can see some big WW to be at 160 in a year or two : Brook, Spence, even Khan. Not so bad.
What do you think ?

Very interesting indeed; lots of fascinating permutations to be had.

I can't imagine Alarez will suddenly decide he wants to be a MW though.

He never wanted to be a MW even when he was the so-called linear MW champion (does he still hold that 'title'?).

Can't see Khan up there either: his durability is too suspect & he looked to 'timbery' when he fought Canelo; so it looked like a division too far for him..

I can imagine Khan vs Brook (at 160, 2018 or 2019). It would be a great pay-day for both of them.

Golovkin turns 35 today.

He's probably past his best now.

Sadly, Universum held him back several years during his prime. If not for that, he'd no doubt have done enough to be an ATG.
