    well Jacobs is making a bit of noise as we all know. Maybe we can hope he means it.

    Probably BJS and Jacobs. He needas to fight one of these four next though that's for sure.

    Don't know why but I have the feeling Jacobs is only using GGG's name to stay relevant or if this fight reaches the level of negotiations it would fell apart from whatever reason (money/haymon/hbo).

    Agree and I hope one of these guys would sign that contract.

    Kell will have earned really good money from yesterday's fight, which is what has probably got BJS interested all of a sudden. The problem is... BJS won't get the same payday, as he fights on Boxnation and I don't think K2 will offer a lot of money for the fight to happen in the US, which may hold up the fight.

    How much do GGG's opponents usually get? Can't be more than $1million..

    All of the above. But I have a feeling GGG will look towards another mandatory.

    Well Jacobs is now mandatory. I hope it's either BJS or Jacobs, but we all know BJS wil duck. I don't know how negotiations are gonna go with Jacobs.

    The whole of the MW and SMW division has turned into a bunch of punnani's at the thought of fighting GGG.

    He really struggles to get fights against the fighters he should be fighting to build a legacy which is a real shame.

    Lets hope that someone takes the challenge this time.

    Who do I think actually takes the fight out of those 4 names? I think Ramirez or DeGale would take the fight.

    DeGale could be the most likely now GGG has dogged two British fighters in recent years and has a profile here.

    I think that BJS is petrified and will never take that fight and I think that Jacobs would duck the fight at this stage of his career.

    BJS will outright duck we already know that.

    Jacobs will agree to negotiations and then pull out for the marketing of it, because in my opinion he is best off avoiding GGG to make some more money at this stage of his career while the money is really good for fighting lesser fighters.

    WBA is enforcing the mandatory so it will be Jacobs unless Jacobs disgracefully drops the belt.

    Jacobs first.

    Hopefully Canelo fights BJS then Golovkin fights the winner of that fight for the title of undisputed MW king.

    Then if GGG wins that, he moves up and fights deGale, Ramirez or whoever is looking like the best/biggest fight at 168 at the time.

    gstring is only interested in hyperbole image building. gstring has contacted chocalito as his next fight since he poses no threat and has a big name .
