    Yes, although GGG is a few levels above anyone else at 160.

    Lemiuex is netwrok and promoter nuetral right now.

    GGG is stuck on HBO.

    If I were in Leimuexs team, I'd fight for an IBF mandatory, or even a WBA minor mandatory to get Jacobs or Taylor in there.....he'd blow them both out the water and have more bargaining power against Canelo(WBC Champion in waiting) and GGG (true champion since 2012.):thumbsup

    Of course. Although we all know how that fight would end, and it won't be pretty.

    Nothing whatsoever.

    He'll be dropped back out of the top 20 and work his way back into fringe contention with a few solid wins then rinse and repeat.:D

    Not yet, GGG should go after WBO champ after Murray or convince K2 to invest $$ and get someone decent at 168.
    Then hopefully by end of 2015 WBC will enforce his mando status.

    Let's wait until tonight's fight is over before speculating. Lemieux hasn't thrown any punch yet!

    It would seem like HBO is going to give a bit of a push to Lemieux and Korobov in order to build up some opponents for Golovkin.

    Golovkin fights at the end of Feb., it wouldn't be a big surprise to see Lemieux and/or Korobov(if they win) back on HBO in the same time frame.

    If Golovkin can't land a major fight for the summer then maybe one of those 2 get the call.

    Compelling? I wouldn't say that, but should he win in an impressive fashion I guess he'll be fairly close to lining a fight up with GGG.
