I don't understand your dislike for GGG. To me, he is a lot of fun to watch.
N'Dam did not want a fight with GGG in the past. Sturm also repeatedly ducked GGG for years.
I admit to thinking pretty highly of Rosado. I thought he whupped J'Leon Love. I also think he's improved his ability over the years and I think he turned down a fight with Bundrage at 154 to step up to 160 to face GGG. That takes balls.
Ishida was the definition of a stay busy fight. GGG has fought four times in the last year. He has fought more than any other middleweight champion. Activity is good, not bad. Like you, I don't rank the win over Ishida any more than just a stay busy win. I think knocking Ishida out was impressive because Ishida is generally durable, however, but I keep it in perspective because it was Ishida.
As a fan, I expect to see GGG face the winner of Geale/Barker or Murray. In my opinion, fighting Mora, Stevens, or Vera would be a step back from those fights.
Speaking of Quillin, I thought facing Guerrero was a step back from his win over N'Dam, which is his best win. You brought up Mora for GGG, but considering Quillin's limited options, Mora wouldn't be a bad choice for him.
