I agree with this. People seem to forget GGG has fought at MW his entire career. Talking about Canelo going up to 168 vs. GGG going up to 168 is like apples and oranges. GGG is an older fighter. There's no sense in him at this stage of his career to look at anything at 168. Which is why talk years past of him meeting Ward at 168 was nonsensical to me. GGG would be destroyed at 168 by some of the fast, big punchers up there.
I think GGG would be competitive with anyone at 168 right now. And if he signed to fight Ramirez next, I'd pick GGG to knock him out. Obviously ESPN has been trying to interest him, so they may be trying to dangle Ramirez to entice him. If the $$$ are right why shouldn't he take Ramirez at 168?
