    What do you all expect to see him do new? Do you expect him to improve ? Or get worse ? Should he of gone with Buddy Mcgirt instead ? Do you expect GGG to have a new set of skills? Let me know your thoughts

    I hope he will retire soon, he’s old and shot, he can’t learn sheet at this age.

    He'll learn a ton. Some brilliant Banks tactics:
    1. If G lands a hurtful counter punch early on in a fight, he could throw no punches for the rest of the fight, gloves by the ears, waiting for that counter again, and if the other fighter adapts and doesn't fall for the trap, lose badly.
    2. If he can't land his jab to set up his power punches because, say, Saunders is too mobile, he can just 'let his hands go' so as not to let Saunders 'dance to victory'. That will win the fight.
    3. He could almost KO Canelo in the 5th round and then take a break so as to let the younger man recover, come back strong and win.
    4. He could attach himself to a superstar as a fill in cornerman and then by association be considered a high level trainer. (This is one Banks strategy that worked, to be fair).
