    Your probably right,I reckon the guy who battered Darrel twice could challenge both.
    Your avatar with all due respect is that a pic of yourself?

    When GGG finds another bum to fight it will be like "ffs he would have beaten him easily anyway, 168 is a weak division" lol.

    FFS IF ITS A WEAK DIVISION

    Let me guess ggg is willing to move up and fight a more proven heavier fighter but these idiots think he is ducking charlo

    If GGG fights Callum Smith that would be taking a huge risk.. Charlo is my favorite fighter but fighting Smith, Uzcategui or Ramirez at 168 is not ducking Charlo.. Now fighting fake champ Fielding is another story.. I would love to see Smith or Uzcategui vs GGG

    GGG now has nothing to lose since he was robbed, Callum is massive, if GGG beats him this should nail him down as an ATG

    What has GGG got to lose? As you can see nobody expects him to win, so if he does win it will really be a statement + no risk of getting robbed with Smith as well

    GGG has clearly learned from Kell Brook's move upwards to challenge him. He's seen how well that has turned out and he can't wait to repeat his success.

    Er hold on....

    Golovkin would toy with Smith.
    Talent over size any day.

    Eddie Hearn spoke about wanting a big stadium fight for smith at anfield this summer

    GGG certainly fits that bill

    As horrible as that place is I’d certainly make the trip from Manchester to watch that ... just make sure I have a good wash after setting foot in that giant cesspool lol

    I think it’s a fairly good match up for GGG ... gets inside with his beast of a jab and i could see him breaking smiths lanky body down and stopping him in a similar fashion he did with Macklin

    Smart move... Meet Canelo @ 168 & get robbed too lol

    Seriously though is an incredible matchup, I'm liking Callums chances too if he brings his A game, which he will, considering he looks like a fighter that fight's to the level of his opposition... Big SMW, great athleticism & physicality, skilled, rangy, patient, picks his shots well, nice counters, a thinking fighter... I think he may get hurt even but he'll outbox old GGG in a very good fight. The wolf at the top of the hill is never as hungry as the one climbing it...

    Bit of a slap in the face for all those saying GGG would never test himself at 168.. LOL He's maybe fighting THE best at 168 ha ha ha & after fighting Canelo twice.. You know the best fighter GGG had of his era to face!!! That's some ducker, some bum slayer, some 'bumlovkin'... :lol:

    Lose & GGG can just say 168 wasn't for him.. Win & the worlds his oyster again, especially if Canelo beats fielding!! Ppl will be clambering for it...

    It does make sense.

    Fighting the real WBA champion at 168, who also holds the GBP (aka Ring) belt, while Alvarez is fighting the pretend WBA champion, who got KO1'd by the real one a couple of years back.
    He'd instantly become the man at 168 and if he was to lose, nobody (sane) would hold that against him.
