I think the Charlo fights be close and I think hed beat Martirosyan and Nelson. In fact Id say all the fights be pretty competitive bar maybe Andrade.

However, who as a MW would easily beat all these guys? I doubt many would even say GGG considering theres so many slick black fighters on that list.

Who would you fancy in Brook v Saunders at 160?
Saunders, Brook needs his size. And he isn't the bigger guy at 160.

From Brook's side I say bravo, but I am amazed anyone is defending GGG for this.

Not sure why I am though, I've seen hot garbage like Gabe Rosado built up to be a proper fight for GGG, "as long as he's busy" SMDH
Ron, I'm certainly not sticking up for GGG , I think it's a no win fight for him and it shouldn't happen.
But , I've asked you before, who do YOU think he should fight?
It's not as easy as us fans would like it to be , trust me.
Yea I havent seen anyone on this forum defend the fight as a decent fight. Im saying the MW division is shite. GGG is the best by far. Then you have Jacobs, Canelo, Cotto, Eubank, Saunders, Lemieux and Quillin. Outside that is there anyone that would be awful fights for Brook to take? (I actually think Brook v 2016 Cotto wis very competitive). Since none of these guys will fight GGG why is Brook any worse than the leftovers in the MW? Looking at it from GGGs POV what other options did he have where he would get as much money?

Id much prefer to see him fight a top 154 fighter or 168 fighter but your acting like GGG is ducking someone. Hes the champ. He hasnt vacated to avoid anyone and he hasnt ducked any mandatorys. If every champions behaved the way GGG did the sport would be a lot better.

First let me reply to Primo. If you are asking who he should fight right now then you are missing the point. He is 34. In this day everyone gets a belt right? Well in his 35 fights he has fought 4 guys who have ever won a MW title. Any MW title, vacant, interim, anything. 3 of those 4 won 1 time and lost every other time. One guy won 5 making a total of 8 championship fight wins by ALL his opponents! And that's 8 wins versus 34 losses! The guy that won 5, he is 0-3 in the USA. He didn't see the final bell once, he QUIT more than once. So even that guy isn't a real champion. GGGs ledger is hot garbage, the whole damn thing. 5 years ago I loved guy. Now I can't stand him. Who should he fight right now, I don't know. I'm more concerned with how his entire career is set up not to get big fights. They get the date, get the venue then fill in the opponent. That's a great way to stay busy but that is the last way to make big fights. But if I had to answer who he should fight right now I would say Lara, hehas called for the fight for years.

As for SilkieJoes comment, so every boxer should be 34 never having fought good fighters? Your view of how the sport should be is an idea I fear is coming.
