    GGG is a CAREER middleweight. Why in the world would he wait until he’s forty to move up now? Jesus. He doesn’t move around weights to take worthless straps off guys at a catchweight with rehydration clauses.

    At this point he should aim for any one of the other belt holders. Charlo would be my guess.

    He should face Canelo a third time I don't think Canelo will face him yet without another notable win He could defend against Mungia in a fun fight while he waits I think Smith can definitely beat canelo tomorrow though if its close enough or smith wins Canelo may rematch him

    Man I dont know, I dont think his frame will carry the extra weight well. He looked about as big as he could get tonight.
    Yes he should got to 168 if that is the only way to make the Canelo fight, but I don't think his body is meant for it.

    He will probably go for DLH or a Rolls or Vanes rematch, if not another unknown "mandatory "

    Demetrius Andrade. Theyre both with DAZN and should be easy to make. GGG needs to start fighting these young lions calling his name, and stop worrying about retired fighters, and guys who dont benefit his career like bogus unknown mandos.

    If Jermell wants to move up that would be a good one, Andrade, I'd also watch him against the second tier contenders. Canelo if he loses, I'd still watch it if Canelo looks great but I think there might be other great matchups for Canelo in that case.

    168 isn't realistic I don't think.
