Better look good tonight then...

I think he might take him.

... On that performance Osullivan gets layed out quickly.

Idiot halling going look at the way he went over, there's no way he was getting up from that...but it was actually the first knockdown he was watching,that he did get up from.

Spike v GGG would be an exciting shoot out though...

Halling is an irritating pillock.

Aye

McCrory completely shot Halling down in the analysis.

Nick halling :x

"Why is he counting jim?"

Errr because that's what happens when a fighter gets knocked down perhaps?

Chris Eubank Jr would be a better fight for him.

It's a no win fight for GGG, should completely demolish spike and will be expected to, but spike can bang so there's always a chance of being caught and sparked. Plus it's not very lucrative for him.

O'Sullivan in no way deserves a fight against Golovkin.

a couple of exciting wins in the states could get spike the fight the americans love an irish fighter ,he'd be destroyed to easy to hit ....

He would have absolutely zero chance of beating GGG.

Exactly. Seriously needs to step up the level of his opposition if he wants to be taken seriously.

In the same way a firing squad is an exciting shoot out

Be like a quails egg under a lump hammer.

O'Kane or Macklin back in Ireland next...

He'd be GGG's worst opponent in years. For the people who say he bangs, tell me who he's shown that against. He certainly didn't look like a serious puncher against Saunders or post-prime Hall, and the rest of his opposition is dross.

His last 3 opponents:

Larry Smith-Stopped in 5 of his last 6 and on 2 of those occasions (not against Spike though) in the first round.
Milton Nunez-Stopped in 10 of 14 losses and 4 of his last 6 fights prior to facing Spike. Stopped in the first 6 times.
Melvin Betancourt--A hugely padded record and only ranked #358 here. Stopped by a 15-12 journeyman in his previous defeat.

So is he big puncher just because he laid out the mediocre Anthony Fitzgerald?

Halling is a clueless buffoon, hasn't a clue what he's on about. O'Sullivan vs Golovkin lol. lol, lol, lol, lol, x 10. Golovkin will humiliate him.

I think GGG is in a situation where he has to fight whoever is willing and if O'Sullivan is willing then why not? The guys who do supposedly 'deserve' a shot at GGG don't want to know. GGG would absolutely destroy O'Sullivan.

Agree. pretty decent match ups and a good earner for O'Sullivan. I'd love to see him in with Eubank Jnr too.

The winner of the BJS v Eubank rematch (if it's happening) should be gunning for GGG. Not because I think they would necessarily win but because they need to show ambition and prove that they want to dominate the division.

It worries me that BJS has made comments saying no one including himself stand a chance against GGG.

Eubank on the other hand wants the fight but needs another decent win before it's conceivable.

Spike v Macklin would be good fun, I wonder though if Spike could wrangle Andy Lee? Another couple of blowouts in Boston would get a bandwagon going. Spike v Curtis Stevens would be a real barnstormer.

O'Sullivan isn't even a top 30 ranked middleweight. He lost every round against Saunders.

Golovkin might have some difficulty getting the best to fight him, but I'm pretty sure he can find someone far more credible than O'Sullivan.
