    Jacobs, Saunders and Eubank Jr would be the 3 best fights imo. If he fights the 2 Brits in the UK and wins (he will) he would raise his profile to the casuals and become popular on both sides on the pond. After that, move to SMW.

    As others have said, Forget Canelo. I don't give a **** what he or his team says, he doesn't want it!

    Perfect world:

    WBA Mandatory-Danny Jacobs
    WBC/WBA/WBO/IBF Unification-Billy Joe Saunders
    IBF Mandatory-Johnson/Murata winner
    WBC Mandatory-Heiland/Magomedov Winner
    Voluntary-Matvey Korobov
    IBF Mandatory-Sergiy Derevyanchenko

    Gives Derevyanchenko enough time to get more fights under his belt. You have Golovkin building an excellent legacy at middleweight. All this goes down to the ultimate fight, Derevyanchenko/Golovkin.

    Watch Derevyanchenko's fights from WSB too. This is the guy, this is the guy. The Technician will be a threat soon.

    Didn't Korobov beat this guy in the AMs? Was a while ago though I think. Korobov actually had a lot of good wins in the AM's, that Andy lee fight illustrates perfectly the difference between AM and pro

    He does, but trying to negotiate 5 fights in 18 months will likely take YELLOW out of the picture.

    Word Im reading is K2 is also in negotiations for a summer fight with Jacobs atm, but reaching out to Hearn irt Eubank Jr should Jacobs drop his title and the WBA elevate Eubank Jr.

    Saunders will be due his mandatory, Khurtszisde who would likely KO him just as easy as GGG would, so he's gonna be begging GGG for a PPV fight late 2016 since his title and cherry are all but gone.

    Harrison seems like he wants GGG and might have the style and power to make it interesting, so Im hoping if Jacobs vacates, Harrison and Jacobs will s**** and I gotta believe Harrison is the more competent operator. :think

    • BJS to unify the MW division for the first time since Hopkins.
    • Jacobs to unify the WBA regular and super titles.
    • Then finally hand Eubank Jr his bottom, before moving up to SMW to fight, and beat, James DeGale.
