    Murata or Saunders are the ones I'd wanna see.

    205¾
    203¾
    201½
    206½
    160
    158½ for the GGG fight

    Murata is ultra basic. GGG KOs him in under 6.

    Boxing is a young man's game, Murata is huge at the weight!

    People accusing Danny Jacobs of being 180 will be saying Murata is 190

    Jacobs is pretty bean poleish, not even that solid. Skinny legs, average back. Still a very big 160lber but no Murata.

    Murata is just big, looks very physically strong and he has a solid work rate. Murata doesn't have the twinkle toes but maybe he can out dog the old dog!

    I'd love to see him give it a go, Murata is one guy I give a decent chance of winning.

    Young and physically imposing. He is one guy GGG won't have a size advantage against.

    It would be one of Golovkin's top victories should it go down that way. I'm a Murata fan and feel he's no easy out for any style of fighter. Obviously would much rather see the Canelo rematch, but I do want Murata in the mix with top guys like Golovkin, Canelo, Jacobs, Saunders in the next, what, 6-12 months hopefully...

    it would be a good fight but it would be the sort of fight golovkin likes when the guy comes to fight no fighter has yet been able to keep golovkin on the back foot and this isn't the guy to do it imo

    Holy **** if this gets made for September I'll be in Tokyo. That'd be a hell of an experience.
