    Someone has already said it. If he could not stop jacob, no way in hell he stops hopkins. And I will add that if he had to win in a very very controversial decision to jacob (and run away without looking back, gg would have rather ****ed his own mother than to rematch jacob), then hopkins win at 160 (154? wtf!) clearly.

    There was nothing controversial about GGG'S win over Jacobs, that being said, Jacobs is just as good as Taylor, who wasn't that great. Jacobs fought the fight of his life and still lost to GGG.

    "the fight of his life" "nothing controversial".... sure man. Whatever. And derevianchenko too? "nothing controversial" either? "the fight of his life" too?

    The more I think about it the clearer it seems to me that hopkins wins to gg any day of the week, twice on sunday.

    Isn't Ishida one of the best victories of the mythical great Pirog? Ishida has fought all the way to heavyweight and been stopped only once, and that was by GGG .Ishida went the distance with Pirog and Paul Williams. GGG blasted him out in GGG fashion. Macklin should have a win over Sturm, as should Prime Martin Murray. Martin Murray gave Sturm and Martinez all they can handle, but GGG destroy's him. Golovkin got his reputation destroying guys in ways nobody else could.

    GGG never fought at 154. So why pick that weight?

    He got the decisions over B Hop but that doesn't mean he deserved the decisions in this sport as we all know

    Wait....154???

    Not sure, but can we co-main this card with Michael Spinks vs Artur Beterbiev at 160?

    Would have to be at 160 neither could have comfortably made 154. Both prime & 100% fit & ready that would be a fight I might break my " no PPV's for me " vows. I'm hard pressed to go one way or the other
    I don't think either fighter really benefitted from friendly officials either both got the shaft more than once
    Fight would be so close a draw may be the fairest result. I just want to watch it so I would pay to watch it

    If GGG is ready to throw down he could win, if he tentative he might lose, then add in the Al Hamon factor, then its a real dangerous fight.

    Golovkin is used to getting robbed, thus he won't mind :)
