    GGG is fighting a carefully picked opponent with a 2 week training camp.

    As if there was ever anything wrong with being a career whatever-weight.

    Anyway, I'm not excited so much as I am curious. GGG is facing another mandatory he'd be criticized for avoiding if he didn't face, all to free him up for a third Canelo fight. The Sergiy Derevyanchenko fight was not as close as people pretend it was, but we'll see if it took something out of him or if it was the illness as GGG claimed.

    This will determine if he'll ever get that third Canelo fight, methinks (do don't perform TOO well, GGG ;) )

    I will watch it. His best years are behind him. He is trying to cash out right now. Only a few years ago he almost had to pay Danny Jacobs to fight him. Two years later he's making 15 mil to fight Steve Rolls. Kamil szeremeta is top 6 according to Ring. He might even lose that fight. I was hoping he would try and fight Charlo.

    :lol: GTFOH with low ko% here. he's faced the biggest hitters in the division and done well. But then, Drenlou is a certified GGG hater :deal:

    Drenlou is one of those special guys that thinks that if a fighter doesn't swing from the floor and try to decapitate the other guy, he's no good :lol: In an alternate timeline somewhere Drenlou#2 is criticizing Golovkin for ducking Dominic Wade his mandatory and the slick Willie Monroe ;)
