    I think GGG has good chances of beating Stevenson in style atm. It would be such a nice scalp for GGG and it would sky rocket GGG's stocks. Loeffler should push for this fight. It would be a win-win situation for GGG. The money and the hype would be insane for this fight.:yep:smoke

    I could see him walking Stevenson down you know.

    If his last 5 fights go:

    Brook
    Jacobs
    Canelo
    Winner of DeGale/Jack
    Stevenson (unless he's lost by then)

    And he wins them bouts, I'd happily call him an ATG.

    Beating Stevenson @175 lbs for the 'lineal' and WBC title is >> than beating Jacobs, BJS, CEJ and DeGale/Jack winner combined.

    Money and legacy wise it makes all the sense. :good

    Come on guys I'm a fan of GGG myself but he's facing a welterweight right now and hasn't come close to looking like going up two divisions?

    I like Golovkin but cmon now. Stevenson would dwarf him. Would probably knock GGG through his guard.

    GGG breaks down Stevenson in the lately rounds. Canelo, BJS , Jacobs and CEJ ain't gonna fight him because GGG would slaughter them.

    Stevenson anesthetizes Bumlovkin @ 175lbs. That fight will NEVER happen..

    Yeah.....Haymon wouldnt sacrifice Stevenson for Kovalev, but he's gonna let him get his shiit pushed in by a MW?:nono:nono

    The minute Beterbiev signs that long term deal, Stevenson is getting fed to Artur. :good

    He wouldn't even face Stevenson at 168, let alone 175. Please. [emoji113]
