Is Alvarez-Golovkin the best fight that can be made

in boxing at the current moment?

 

The biggest. Not the best. It may not even be the biggest actually, but it is very close to it.

 

It's certainly on the short list. And it is one of and likely the "biggest" fight that can be made right now, my opinion.

edit: Flamazide beat me to the punch...

 

There are much better fights out there, like Gonzalez vs Inoue for example and you can come up with other great matchups. But it is the biggest out there for sure.

 

It may not be the best fight that can be made ( Gonzalez vs Inoue or upcoming Lomachenko/ Jason Sosa are better)
but it it the biggest fight that can be made and the fight boxing needs.

 

Biggest, not best.

 

Canelo doesn't seem to think so...

 

It's one of the five on my wish list along with Kovalev-Ward II, Gonzalez-Inoue, Crawford- Mikey Garcia and Garcia-Lomachenko.

 

Definitely not.
Much better boxing matches to be made are;

-Kovalev Vs Stevenson

- WIlder Vs Joshua

- Ward Vs Stevenson

- Crawford Vs Lomachenko

- Lomachenko Vs Garcia

- A ton of possible match-ups at Jr. MW.

 

I've already begun losing interest in this fight. Last September would have been ideal. December would have been great. This upcoming May would have been fine. I would even accept this September.

But we know none of these were good enough for GBP and Canelo. They should have just made an announcement long ago that that they are scared of GGG and want nothing to do with him.

You don't give up your belt without even engaging in serious negotiations. You don't say you aren't ready for 160 and then agree to fight someone else at 164.

GGG has the potential to become a special fighter. Can't say that about Canelo. The former doesn't need to waste his time chasing after the latter for a payday that few will give him credit for beating.

GGG, clean out your division, become undisputed, set the MW defense record, then move up and do what you want at SMW.

Canelo, continue fighting for money with cherry picks, your name will never be mentioned with true Mexican warriors.

 

No, Usyk-Gassiev is the best.

 

Would break a million PPV buys on HBO at $69

It is by far the BIGGEST.

The best???
Not by a long shot.
GGG will blow thru the pretender like a paper target.
Sadly, Jacobs is his biggest current threat and possibly Suleki, Murata, and Dereyvchenko down the rd.

GGGs best fight would be Ward at maybe 170.

 

Suleki has announced on his twitter that he's moving down to 154, strange move.

 

Wouldn't Joshua vs Wilder potentially be a bigger fight or am I grossly overestimating how popular Wilder is? I know Joshua is insanely popular.

 

Golovkin won't fight above Golovweight (164) for Andre Ward, so you're dreaming there.
