I just don't think anyone beats him at or below 160 pounds, to the point where I don't even care to see it. Cotto and Floyd won't go anywhere near him. Honestly liked the idea of his fighting Chavez Jr for a first opponent at 168, just to tell us how he handles the weight/brings his power up etc, and to see Jr get beat up of courseBika would also be a good way to break into the division. After that absolutely Froch and Ward are the superfights for me.
1. Cotto - WBC - RING
Earn some money and raise his profile
2. Soliman - IBF
Take a breather, pick up a belt
3. Quillin - WBO
An actual middleweight with pop and ability but Ironically also probably a real chance to shine in stopping him spectacularly.
Then he will have truly cleaned out the division before challenging himself elsewhere.
Tricky for GGG as it seems the fighters with the biggest money are below him but in all honesty, the only person I see moving up to face GGG is Erislandy Lara, as he has lost some steam in his career and could do with taking a big risk fight.
But anyway, ideally of course GGG would want to unify (Cotto/or Quillin) then cash in on some smaller guys (Floyd/ Alvarez) ala Hopkins but then take the challenge(s) above him (Froch, Ward, or Chavez Jnr) that would be better for his legacy.
From a financial point of view and as realistic as I can fathom; I guess it would have to be Quillin, Alvarez then Chavez. Although it would be excellent if Cotto would take the fight as it keeps GGG firmly in the Latin quarter, which can only be a good thing.

"Take a breather pick up a belt"
Hahahaha
His entire career is a breather.
Dude is 32 years old..he should press the accelerator NOT the brakes.
I never hear ya'll say Floyd should take a breather.....hmmmm.
Even GG's fans are carefully managing his slow-motion career.
Floyd earns $40 million per fight, GGG has never had a 7-figure payday yet.
GGG is the B-side against any current PPV "star," that's why it's convenient to currently swerve him. For a foreigner to do 8000+ tickets at Madison Sqaure Garden is impressive. He's clearly getting closer to forcing his way into the big leauge.
3-Time SADDO PREDICTION COMP CHAMPION.
Poor Floyd, poor, poor Floyd, everyone wants him to actually fight for those 30 million dollar and up paydays.
Pulling out a sympathy card for Floyd is going to get you nothing but laughs!
Look, Floyd takes a lot of flak from plenty of people, he's a real celebrity, wrapped in millions of dollars so don't worry about him, he can take it.
Poor Floyd! Thanks, I'll be giggling about that all day!
Is this legit or a mistake?
Miguel Cotto - Boxer
I can't find any confirmation elsewhere so my guess is its a misunderstanding by a site mod. I nearly sprayed powerade all over my laptop.
