Re: GGG opponents- Andre Ward aside, because it will not happen within 2 years!
He should fight the following in the order listed:
1. Jacobs, in order to keep his WBA title and fight his top challenger.
2. BJS, so he can unify all titles and beat the second biggest threat in his division.
3. Canelo, so he can beat the ginger off him, punish him for his cowardly actions, and rip the lineal title from the most undeserving champion since...Adonis Stevenson!!!
4. Ward, in order to test himself against a truly great fighter who holds a significant size advantage.

After Canelo then move to super middle not jump to light heavily?

Canelo is out for the remainder of the year, which I imagine puts in doubt the current plan to face GGG in September 2017 because he won't get enough fights in before that fight.
With Fury/Klitschko 2 off, BJS is not fighting in October and hasn't fought in a year, he'll need to tune up before a fight with GGG.
With that in mind, face Jacobs in December. Jacobs is the second best middleweight after GGG currently. He has a good win over Peter Quillin.
BJS in the first part of 2017. If Canelo won't fight in September 2017, then the DeGale/Jack winner, unless Lara/Andrade/Charlos step up.
