    Afolabi and Huck are set to meet eachother again in March aren't they? I'd love Chambers-Cunningham at CW

    :lol: GGG is the man. Everyone else trying to do their best mean face and he's there with a nice little smile. Love him.

    I saw the HBO graphic and thought the same thing. There's some good depth and a likely scramble for the top spot once the aging champion steps aside.

    The depth also shows how global boxing has become. Those guys are from all over the world.

    For some fun dark horse candidates (and all still relatively young) you could add

    Proksa
    N'Dam N'jikam
    Lemieux

    All have been defeated handily, but all are still young by most accounts, improvements are not out of the question

    Think thats more to do with Macklins following in the States than anything else.

    Don't know that I'd call it ridiculously hot, but it's getting - and has the potential to be - very interesting.

    It could be because many felt Macklin deserved the win in the Sturm fight. But I agree Sturm is still a top middleweight,

    Yeah and we have no unified champs,no one wants to fight. They wanna milk their title rather than get KO'd by Golovkin.

    Only guys with balls are Sexy Sergio,GGG and Chavez Jr to a degree

    They've gotten good publicity and it's deep, but no one other than Sergio and Geale would crack a "top 50 p4p list."

    Yup...

    People discredit Geale's resume and talk up Golovkin. Which is ridiculous. Golovkin has 2 wins that are competitive with Geale's top 5-6. And none compete with Geale's Germany title winning fights.

    So far this year we have had GGG vs Rosado (who is not even a Middleweight :patsch)

    Fights scheduled so far are:

    (I hope Sturm loses as he is looking to rematch Geale to once again milk the IBF strap) other than that its a good fight IMO.

    but hope it happens for the sake of the MW division.

    back in March back in Europe and back to possibly fighting someone irrelevant again. Just hope we get Pirog vs GGG later this year.

    Basically all the champs that hold belts have a fight lined up or already fought (GGG). I still haven't heard of Lee's next fight news, Barker, N'Dam, Proksa, Bursak, and the rest of the MW who are atlest relevant.

    Why did Geale get stripped of his newly won WBA title? Germany title fights :lol: that mother****er Sturm wants nothing to do with him either. There wouldnt be an opportunity for a robbery. Pirog got injured and pulled out -- Gennady's fault? Dibella turns into a lunatic from a simple question? Quillin turned down the fight too?
