    List opponents please????

    Obviously Ganeddy is not scared of Jermall Charlo but Sanchez has had some pretty shady interviews.

    Man GGG better not fight a C grade fighter & blame it on "inactivity".

    What are acceptable GGG opponents in 2019. (No particular order)

    •Jacobs II
    •Charlo
    •Canelo III
    •Brant (champion)

    In reality GGG will probably fight
    •JCCjr
    •Sergio Martinez
    •Mike Alvarado (Mexican Style)

    Did I miss any options?

    Spence Jr is probably going to run into problems in the not-too-distant future where he's dominant at WW. That's not a hugely popular division outside of the USA. So he's going to have trouble getting big-money fights.

    In fact it's already sort of happening. Look at all this Mikey Garcia-Spence Jr nonsense. Total mismatch - but don't be surprised if it gets made.

    So, yes, Spence Jr will start making noises about fighting in other divisions. But no freakin' way would he fight GGG at 160. They'd be asking GGG to starve his way down to some sort of catch weight number...and he's not that stupid.

    Brant or Charlo- Yes please
    Clenelo III- No thanks, I dont need to see him beat him a third time and get robbed on the cards
    Jacobs II- Yawn

    Those last 3 suggestions are you clearly you trolling so I wont respond to those.

    Brook didn't say the same thing. He offered to sign a contract that was already written up when Eubank chickened out.

    Id be happy with Alvarez III, Jacobs II, Andrade, Saunders, Charlo and Derevyanchenko.

    I could give a pass to Brant, Murata, NJikam and Sulecki.

    If he moves up then theres a lot of fights but ill leave that as I think he'll stay at middle. Anyone ekse at middle Im not currently interested in but thats ten fighters to choose from, shouldnt be difficult to make two of those.

    I wouldn't mind it, so we can shut this guy's mouth. Spence thinks he's a god the way he's been talking recently, and it's very obvious he's a cheater. He'll be found out by VADA eventually. GGG decimates this guy and I can't wait to see it happen.

    Realistically I'd say something like:

    Canelo 3 (if he can get him out of Vegas) for legacy
    Jacobs 2
    Saunders

    But it's also possible that he might take easier fights and basically wind down his career. The dude is ancient in boxing terms.

    Charlo makes sense not that Saunders is suspended. Andrade, not a back pick either, as he's undefeated.

    But my #1 pick would never happen, that would be Crawford moving up.

    -:calimero1:

    Crawford dares to be great!! GGG is a gimmick who always wants smaller fighters. Cotto, Floyd, Canelo, GGG was desperate to fight small guys. Froch woulda tore day ass apart:cool:
