    can he dominate ??? It cant go on forever the domination can it??? Late 30's, done everything am and pro, respect off the fans , other fighters past and present..Cemented his place with all the other greats at 160. Why not call it quits after Canelo 2?? The money come late, but it come..Multi millionaire, family, young, healthy but at the end or close to the end of a great career. This year would be perfect imo..Thoughts ??

    He’ll knockout PEDless Canelo, Unify against BJS and end the Charlo hype. Then retire with the record for middleweight title defenses.

    2 years, but as a fan I would like to see him stay at 160 beat 3 of the following fighters then call it a day....BJS, Derevyanchenko, Charlo, Murata, Jacobs 2.

    Also the reason I want him to retire is I don't want him beat past prime..BJS fiddles the life out of GGG at this stage for a UD win im pretty sure, and the others you mention Odins beard have youth or less miles on the clock, he cant go through 3 fighters at the top at this stage imo

    I suspect he's coming to the end of the road, fast. Going to be very sad when he goes.

    he probably won't, but a counter if GGG fights more aggressive is possible. I think Canelo was quicker, so .

    This would be ideal, hoping he goes down this route instead of moving up to SMW and fighting Chunky.
