    For Golovkins next fight I would just like to see him against someone who will not fold like a lawn chair like Geale and Macklin or just come to survive like Murray did. None of the other title holders at 160 will fight him anytime soon so I think he should test the waters at 168, I'm not saying he should fight Ward next but maybe someone tough like Anthony Dirrell or Sakio Bika even Chudinov.

    These guys won't be scared of GGG like all his other opponents are they will come to fight.
    Thoughts?

    All will fold once they feel GGG's power, nobody can take it unless they run for their lives

    Arthur Abraham. Golovkin would batter him but he's durable and he would pick up a belt at 168. Would maybe entice the other belt holders to unify.

    I agree, it would be could to see him against someone who wouldn't back down from him, AA would give him a better fight than anyone at 160.

    He needs to stay at 160 and just try to find someone there in the meantime. He's not moving up to 168 till he takes care of either Canelo or Cotto.

    I don't think they willingly folded, he's fought some credible opponents mixed with some okay ones. He's doing what he should be doing if the hype is warranted. We'll see if he can get an elite fighter between the ropes.

    If Canelo beats Cotto I think he will fight Golovkin. Just a feeling hope Im right that would be great fight.

    Anthony Dirrell just lost a fight

    Sakio Bika is 36 years old and hasn't won a fight since 2 years

    Fedor Chudinov only beat Old Felix Sturm.

    Only worthy fights for GGG @ 168 are Froch or Ward

    I would prefer to see him at 160 vs Eubank JR,
    the Lemieux vs N'Dam N'Jikam winner, the Jacobs vs Mora winner
    Lee , Quillin and of course Cotto

    I have no doubt Canelo would fight Golovkin tonight if Cotto wasn't a better payday against a hall of famer. Canelo will fight anybody.

    No way they would let AA go anywhere near GGG.
