    Callum Smith

    If he wins you will be on suicide watch.

    No opponent for him at 168. Very, very weak division.

    This. I can't think of a single guy GGG could beat at 168 that would matter.

    He still has to beat Hopkins' record. He has matches with Jermall Charlo, Derevyanchenko, Jacobs rematch, Canelo rematch maybe, displayed interest in fighting Korobov, and Murata.

    Weak or not, there will be some good money fights in the UK.

    He should go up to 168 after beating Canelo and BJS

    Is 160 not a bigger challenge than 168? I would argue it is.

    He could fight the winner of the SMW WBSS I guess.

    Other than that, it sounds like a waste of time. SMW is a dead division.

    Stupid thing is he will go to 168 next, he can't make 160 much longer!!!!

    When he does nut case OP will claim he is ducking lil Jermall or Jacobs rematch
    GGG nut huggers (who claim 168 is dead) will also then claim 168 is the strongest division in boxing

    He isnt finishing his career undefeated, he will lose a controversial decision (robbery) against a hometown fighter. You can bet your glutes on that. One of the bad things about fighting in America, a place where the incompetent get rewarded.

    If Golovkin beats Canelo he should go for the last belt @160 which has Saunders an the moment.
    Moving up to 168 makes no sense at them moment there aren't any big fights there right now.
    Zurdu ist still relative unknown
    I never heard of Benavidez yet (has to beat Dirrell first too)
    Smith has to fight the SMW tournament first
    DeGale should have a rematch with Jack first

    Maybe Golovki will move up in late 2018 for 1 or 2 big paydays

    He should call out Ward if he wins. P4P #1 VS P4P# 2. . Thats what everybody should want to see. He doesn't have to go to 175 either , he can fight at whatever weight he feels comfortable at. Ward isn't a big guy anyway , they're of similar size. . Would GGG be man enough challenge Ward:eyebrow2::patadaenwevs:

    Considering how Ward suddenly looked bigger and much stronger than Kov and how he received preferential treatment twice by judges and ref despite fouling? Fighting him would be the biggest mistake Tripple G can make..
