The HBO GGG opponent list for May

[Weebler I]

Jigger.... we already figured it out

Heiland and Monroe Jnr.

Monroe out....Johnson will probably get the call IMO.

They've worked with Shaw before and been showcased a couple of times here

Is Monroe definitely out? because that was the only match-up of the three that intrigued me.

I'd like to see GGG in with a top name myself, but let's not forget, Johnson was giving Stevens the absolute bidness before he got caught and stopped in the 10th.

Sounds like it's more of a stay busy fight, and while GGG would be a huge favorite of course, Johnson isn't powder puff. He will come to fight.

Jessie Brinkley & Derrick Findley gave Stevens problems too. Tureano looked average against Gavronski & Theran (and those are his best two wins by far). If we get Golovkin/Johnson on May 16th, then the only reason to tune in that night will be to see Roman Gonzalez make his debut.

Somebody should let Willie know, he thinks he still got it. Honestly out of those 3, he'd be the best choice. Heiland & Johnson lack the movement & power to survive much longer than Ishida.

Utter joke. Cotto wont take the fight. What's the point of him fighting Johnson or any other MW that would be available in May?

He can either fight someone or not at all. If not at all then he's going to be sitting on the sidelines till summer at the earliest. Rather have him fight a ranked opponent in May, and then fight again in summer against a bigger names and/or unification bout.

That, and GGG's post fight victory interview ought to be worth a couple of laughs as well.

Like I said, stay busy fight. If Monroe Jr. gets the nod, then even better.

May? Where would he even be (if he didn't fight GGG).
Also I think Tureano might make things interesting buy trying to smother and clinching.... Heiland just gets murdered

I assumed he's out, he's talkign fighting but also saying he knows he needs more fights before they can make it. Also, K2 should know that he's an unknown commodity... so kind of useless right now. Let him show his stuff and if he's shows good stuff and looks impressive, fight him then. Right now he's the guy who won Boxcino and beat a faded ass Vera

[Evil Abed]

Yep. Tureano basically confirmed that Willie is the other option.

So I guess Hieland is the third guy.

[Evil Abed]

I agree that***39;s what I***39;m banking on

They're talking about Monroe

[Hougigo]

Now I don't know about Monroe.... dude is so on and off about the fight

[Hougigo]

Must be... his manager is already mouthing off about it.
