    I'm looking at Boxrec, and the only name I'm coming up with, is either Tureano Johnson or Korobov. Sergio Mora is with Al Haymon, so idk if he's allowed to fight on HBO. Or maybe someone like Austin Trout?

    Chavez Jr. would be fun especially since his mouth or instagram account started it. Although the odds of the fight of that actually happening are lotto winner slim.

    Its good Golovkin is looking at fighting 4 times this year. Unfortunatley his opponent for May might not be the strongest.

    It seems all the top guys have other things lined up or Golovkin has already beaten them.

    I wouldn't be shocked if someone moved up from 154 to get a crack at Golovkin.

    I would love Cotto, Chavez Jr., or maybe even ANDRE WARD! Ward needs a fight bad!

    Per Steve Kim, Tureano is on HBO approved list but only a 3rd or 2nd choice for May 16

    I think he took a couple shots. Now sober, he realizes he "F"d
    up. Unfortunately for him Gennaddy has a translater

    Any idea who the 1st/2nd picks are? Other than Cotto obviously.

    May 9th is already taken by Canelo/Kirkland, and GGG
    is no longer an undercard fighter. He's the main event.
    I doubt the TS has any evidence to justify making this
    thread. GGG will likely face the winner of Lemieux/N'dam
    or Lee/Quillen in his next fight.

    Chavez Jr, Canelo, Lara, Charlo, Andrade, Dirrell, Ward all good fights for him.

    I think I read somewhere GGG's camp has accepted Chavez Jr's $1m challenge for the KO. I believe 1 of these can indeed happen in 2015 even if not for Chavez Jr.

    I'm sick of GGG fighting tomato cans. He needs to step the hell up .

    Lemieux and Ndam should fight few championship fight before facing GGG. Quillin and Cotto should man up since they have been there longer there are not young guns anymore and should go for legacy fights.
