He’s not hitting the canvas anytime soon and he’s going to keep throwing bombs until that final bell. Who the hell wants to eat at that place? Not me. I’d prefer a Eubank Jr. or even a Benn. I think Benn is probably the best option bc I don’t think that he’s been hit by anyone with pop yet. I think GGG puts either to sleep but he may gain more public appeal by giving Benn his first defeat while shutting his dumb mouth up at the same time. So that would be my choice.

GGG vs Mung would be a nice scrap.

Andrade still has his WBO belt, I know there’s a fight for the interim, but I’m sure the WBO could be “persuaded” to let Andrade defend again.
Does he really have a shoulder injury, or did he know he could hold tight for a bigger pay day ?

Why not Benavidez vs Charlo, Andrade or Zurdo ? These guys need to risk their 0! They have no meaningful fights.

Probably Eubank Jr in UK would be a better pick for GGG in terms of money.

At least Eubank fought some decent opponents in Groves and DeGale-which is Jr's best win.

That fight is not going to happen.
GGG taking the good reward, zero risk Eubank next.

I think eubank is a riskier fight for GGG than mung. I dont think he is better but sometimes he can move decently.

mung is there to be hit, but he dishes it back. Eubank is a decent mover but not amazing offencivly.... Even at 40 GGG is pretty scary when it comes to a game of no headmovement, his jab alone is terrifying. but GGG at 40 is there to be outmoved.

Yes, but not by Eubank.
Beating GGG still requires an opponent that is actually good...........not a protected fraud with a famous last name.

You have to be kidding. Andrade is the fighter that has ducked three divisions. The guy just isn't about taking tough fights. I have zero faith he'll ever fight anyone, and I'm hoping he spirals into irrelevance soon.
