"Sanchez says Gennady Golovkin vs. Rob Brant possible for early 2019"
Thoughts? GGG haters will shoot holes in this, but is this really so objectionable? GGG after all, was slated to meet Murata in Japan... only Brant got to him first. So now they're targeting the guy who beat Murata. Seems fair to me. Meanwhile, let's not forget Canelo going up to 168 to meet the feared Fielding. The article also talks about a possible timeline for GGG-Canelo III (if it happens) by Sept 2019. I personally have no interest in seeing this again. GGG will be what.... 37 1/2? Ancient for a middleweight, especially one with GGG's miles on his odometer. The only way I'd even consider being interested in the trilogy would be if it happened out of Vegas/Texas/Mexico/California. MSG would be acceptable. With judges NOT appointed by the WBC. Still.... GGG runs the risk of finally hitting the wall..... and Canelo would be vindicated for life.... saying he knew he won all 3 fights all along. Now THAT would be a frigging nightmare. No. I'd rather Canelo earn his DAZN millions the hard way, taking on real competition at either 160 or 168. But as far as GGG taking on Brant next, I got no problem with that.
