Who is GGG fighting in May?

[Fenster]

Watched a few rounds. Considering he was fighting Soliman, a man that makes every fight god-awful, he looked pretty solid. He fights taller than 5'10 and looks like he has some reach (I checked - 5' over GGG).

Mw has always been kinda of a lack luster division for the most part i mean Hopkins, Hagler and Carlos best wins were guys that were moving up division at that weight. Mw just never had that much star power and did not have same king of boxing as the hws with the size they had.

Don't know who GGG will be fighting in May. It definitely won't be Canelo, as Canelo has turned his attention toward Khan. Fans wanting a GGG-Canelo to materialize may have to wait quite a while, as Canelo's sure to go through the welterweight division, at some weight to which they might be willing to bloat up to.

So after Canelo fights khan, will he fight Crawford next?

LOL.

On the 1% chance Khan presented problems to Canelo..... why not?
You keep going down the weight divisions until you find someone who bloated or not cannot possibly have the power to test your chin nor take your own middleweight punch.

Sounds like a failsafe strategy to me.

This next fighter kinda shows that the depth at the weight class is as lacking as ever. I mean like said early whos Haglers best wins Duran and Hearns, Hopkins at mw Tito and Oscar, GGG best opponent will be Canelo in September. You think that a weight class that is more peoples weight would have more talent but man Mw talent is worse then the heavyweights there is GGG then no one else. I will say that GGG got fucked in waiting but at least he fighting although the more look at his opponents the more i see how much talent this division has lacked over the years just plain bad.

Now I've always stuck up for GGG, and I'm a fan of his, but I will not condone or defend this bullshit below from his promoter.
Golovkin's Promoter Confirms Interest in Bernard Hopkins Fight - Boxing News

This gives the anti GGG brigade all the ammunition they would need to feast on. I can hear it now.
1. they want to fight a 51 year old.
2. they want a 51 year old to come down in weight.
3. they want to go to 168lb for him , but not for others.
4. they're saying this is more box office than Andre Ward. (Yeah, I know they're using this to have a dig at Ward, and don't really believe it.)
GGG's promoter is a loud mouthed twat and doesn't do Golovkin any favours any time he opens his mouth. Yeah, I know it's all publicity, but it's bollocks.
I still like Golovkin as a bloke and a Boxer and I believe he wants the best guys out there.
