    Lol... well it's the best move he can make next. Everyone agrees. The Canelo fight will come later, everyone knows that too.

    BJS will price himself out and avoid him again. He gave GGG a deadline lol. That's like GGG giving Canelo a deadline. He doesn't realize he's not the A side

    Don't think he will.
    If he doesn't get the Golovkin unification bout he has to fight his dangerous mando next in a low purse bout, and might lose his golden ticket WBO belt without ever cashing out.

    Make sense, his he should try to get Canelo as his next fight. Or fight his Mando hopefully win. Then fight Cinnamon

    Look at this poll, people on ESB are rarely unanimous this is very rare!!!!

    LLL is going to look like a weak POS if he ducks Billy
    I hope this board gives LLL as much **** as I will give him when he begs a ginger 154lber that just got his ass beat by JCC Jr for a pay day

    Thanks. Most people who voted for BJS in June did so on the assumption that the Canelo fight would happen later this year anyway though, I'd always vote for more good fights over less..

    I don't know why GGG fans like to assume all the time, BJS is not an easy fight for GGG.
    I said it before it was even a thing, BJS gives GGG real problems and 2 years ago a fresher fitter GGG might have got Billy out of there but a 35 yo GGG without a second gear is in for a rough night.

    No fight is easy but BJS shouldn't be a big problem for Golovkin

    Hope Golovkin and his team doesn't play Oscars game. Skip the Saunders fight would be just stupid.
    Golovkin should fight Saunders in the summer for the last belt. Chavez Jr will likely KO Canelo and the big fight for september will be dead anyway.
