    Canelo should face Benavidez, GGG should face Charlo or retire.

    canelo shoud become a profesional golf player, imho he's not motivated about boxing anymore.

    Gg should retire. Or fight some tomato cans like he has done his whole career. Who cares? wasted talent.

    GGG is going to end up with some unwarranted and embarrassing loses on his record if he carries on at elite level...

    Ggg should retire, and Canelo should fight the best fighters from 160-168, cuz his prime years are damn near over.

    As Canelo is sliding out of his prime, he should look to make a statement at 168 by beating Benavidez who is clearly the best challenger in the division

    GGG should either unify against Charlo (unlikely) or retire

    GGG needs to defend his belts at MW.

    If he sucks or looks bad (his decline will be rapid IMO) then he needs to retire.

    He's surely made $100m+ by now?

    I swear, watching the fight I thought that they were taking it easy on each other to save themselves for future fights. Wouldn't doubt it.

    Amir Khan & Kell Brook of course

    Then Crawfish can fight them in their wheelchairs afterwards

    Canelo will fight and lose to Bivol again. I would rather he fight Benavidez, because we don't know how that fight looks. The old dog Canelo's experience may pay off against the young lion.

    Golovkin is finished as an elite fighter and it's arguable whether he's even world class at this point. Certainly not at 168. Maybe he'll look a little better at 160, but the Murata bout did not inspire much confidence. Wish he would call it. Hate seeing great old fighters become cannon fodder. He has made a metric **** ton of money.

    The winner of Crawford and Spence would be a good fight for Golovkin, another big money maker.

    GGG should retire but he does look like he has 2 more good fight left in him. The 3rd fight wasn’t anything brutal so it didn’t take much out of either guy. Charlo or Munguia fight would be good money fight. Hell these younger guys should be calling him out but they aren’t

    If Eubank beats Benn then GGG should fight him in the UK for a good pay day in a fight he should win comfortably.
