    No one wants it. poor guy. Reminds me of when Paul Williams had to take fights at 54 and 60 because the top 147 guys didn't it. Risk vs Reward

    it doesn't make sense for too many to call GGG out at 160, he is close to being a superstar but not quite there yet, plus at this point he looks super dangerous, thus lots of danger for non super star type pay days,,,,

    if GGG breaks through the next level everyone will be after him because he will be in such demand his opponents will be able to make their careers just by fighting him.

    Assuming he doesn't get laid out which is always a possibility when it comes to the fickle sport of boxing :rasta

    It seems that unless Mayweather comes back to fight him or Pacquiao decides to move up on a whim that Cotto and Canelo are the only money fights left from 140-168.

    BJS is calling out Canelo and Cotto right now because he can make that $4,000,000 dollar payday that K2 can't even pay Gennady.
    Very sad indeed but that's the breaks.

    Who PW? well that is my point. GGG is beatable but everyone is running scared. Everyone is beatable.

    Look at Andy Lee, he had a belt and therefore put himself in line for a big money fight with GGG, Canela, and others. Instead he tries to "voluntary defense" his way around and hold the belt hostage. In the end, he lost to a lesser fighter and wont get the money or respect as if he would have fought the top guys.

    The thing is with BJS is that he just can't expect cotto or canelo to fork out 4 million bucks just cos he has the belt.cotto has never given that out to an opponent with his own top billing..canelo the same..they both have received that amount but never given it out.Frank ****** needs to tell BJS the truth and tell him that his belt is worth around 1.5 mill and any extra is a bonus.If he don't want GGG then I'm sure Eddie Hearn will offer martin murray to him for the best coin in London..But if BJS wants say around 2 mill plus a 3 fight deal with HBO wich will see him pocket another 2 mill then grow some ballls and fight GGG.

    Canelo is obvious choice.

    He's too scared though.

    Saunders mentioned he wants to fight Golovkin, while at the same time, keeping it real -- saying he'd need 18 months to get ready for a Golovkin fight.
