    Why did GGG chose to fight a welterweight and risk being ridiculed if he wasn't scared to face Jr? Especially after he mocked Canelo?

    Canelo is too short and doesn't hit hard enough to compete with Eubank and Groves. (considering he's a counterpuncher and doesn't throw volume, these guys will be on him all night)

    I'd like to see GGG fight in a weak division against Jack and Froch!

    Lol, I'm not going to get in a fantasy boxing argument you dweeb. Looking forward to Eubank Jr fighting Abraham who at least used to be good. Better than seeing him ruin Nick Blackwell's life in a mismatch. Happy that Groves finally got a title despite coming up short against the best competition that he's faced in Froch and Jack. Canelo and GGG have never even fought at SMW. Get a life.

    I just don't think Canelo will move up to 168 hope I'm wrong

    Only if they had enough paramedics on-hand for emergency proceedure, stretcher and ambulance at the ready and a venue close to a good reliable hospital.

    Collins would've pitched his toes into the canvas, bit down on his mouthpiece and tried to maul Jones Jr who would've had a field day with that style!! Refs back then didn't stop fights so fast! Dangerous. Steve couldn't break an egg either.

    He beat the posturing low volume punch picker Eubank by out working/out hussling the guy (throwing 2 or 3 to Eubank's 1, launching his head into his chest), and beat the explosive low-weaving bully Benn by standing up to his swings and hitting straight back (making him quit twice). He was made for Jones Jr's reflexed counter combo peppering.

    Canelo's a paper champ at 160.
    He's older and slower with less power compared to 154.
    If Gennady has anything left, he will win every rd and possibly stop him.
    And Eubank is a wanker.

    Sr is a legend. Jr is a dick.

    What an absolute toerag of a human being you are, no way can Eubank be blamed in any way, especially as challenger for a title.
