    I honestly cant see any fighter lasting 12 rounds with him around his weight class.

    he has had signed contracts with froch and chavez

    the guys he has destroyed did not do badly at 168

    Murray had a very close fight with abraham and many said he was robbed

    rubio went 12 rounds with dirrel

    murray and groves fought a tooth and nail fight and groves failed to drop him and made to work hard

    But the sad fact is Groves is better than anyone GGG has beat. He already outclassed arguably GGG's best win in Murray.

    lol he never outclassed murray he was taken to the brink against him he fought at his best

    GGG beat up murray without even really trying and toyed with him and knocked him down countless times and stopped him when he wanted too

    groves fought to the brink with murray lol it took everything in his power to win GGG won without even trying hard AND STOPPED HIM

    I think that if Murray had a second crack he might. The guy is seriously hard. That said, Ramirez, DeGale, maybe? Chavez Jr? That guy has a hard head.

    Dirrell would be tough as hell to pin down

    He's super fast, and packs enough power to wobble the Iron Chinned Cobra

    Groves packed enough power to almost KO IC Cobra in a round, yet Gennady laughed at his power

    Brooks or BJS?

    Or Deveryhencko?

    What a lot of people fail to realise is GGG is not only a power puncher with a great chin, but highly skilled

    You read it here first DM readers

    you can be damn sure and take it to the bank he will not fight anybody who he thinks can take him 12 rounds.

    Ward if he can make 168 (doubtful)

    I also think the Canelo fight would be closer than most think.
