    If these guys all fought each other asap, this would bring some great entertainment back to boxing and answers before GGG retires. Either in tournament form or just fight each other without all the ridiculous politics. Canelo, Golovkin,Charlo,Andrade, Derevyanchenko, Murata, Eubank, Mungia.

    Let's say round one, Canelo vs Murata, Golovkin vs Mungia, Eubank vs Charlo, and Derevyanchenko vs Andrade. Who wins these matches and how?

    My prediction for the semi final bouts:
    Canelo W-12 Derevyanchenko
    Golovkin W-12 Eubank jr
    Canelo vs Golovkin for the undisputed middleweight world title.

    canelo will skip it and move up to 164 and make 168 fighters move down to fight him.

    Who would be the proverbial dirty fighter a la ward to keep us boxing fans angry?

    Tournament would force the fights which is good (if you can get them to sign), but that list looks a little unsightly. For instance, never should Eubank be included in anything that will provide him significant money and spotlight.

    How about: Golovkin, Saunders, Canelo, Williams, Derevyanchenko, Lemieux, Murata and Andrade just so he can get KO'd multiple times.

    Problem is as soon as Canelo is involved he only fights twice a year in Vegas with his own judges and hydration clauses.

    If there had to be one, I would assume it would be one with a past history of this.

    The problem with Saunders and Lemieux is that they are both at 168lbs now. I agree, that the tournament would take quite a while like the super six did, but at least we would get a undisputed champ though. Also we would get more great fights.
