Canelo is gonna take it steady this year. GGG is coming next year. It all depends on who Cotto fights next. If Cotto fights Floyd, then Cotto in September. If Cotto fights GGG, which I have personal hopes for, then Lemieux or maybe Lee if he beats Quillin in September. Then a unification bout with GGG will be huge. Over 1 mill buys
Exactly, people can talk about how many holes in Canelo's game there are. And they're right, but the guy has balls. You don't really see many fighters these days taking risks with the fights they take. And the Lara decision I didn't agree with, but that's not his fault. He stands up and gets into the ring, can't ask for more from a fighter. GGG seems the same, though he hasn't yet fought elite competition.
weird I just made a post but it disappeared.
And before the states he was being ducked by then champ Felix Sturm, who GGG was mandatory to for TWO years. Also on two occasions N'dam was ordered to a purse bid to fight GGG but N'dam never showed up.
The IBF just officially stripped Jermaine Taylor of his title. So that vacant title will now be fought for by the two next highest ranked available fighters, ironically that is N'dam and Felix Sturm. However I don't think Sturm is going to take it as he'll make more money fighting zee German's, so the next guy up is Billy Joe Saunders, so it's looking like it will be N'dam vs Saunders for the IBF strap (Sturm has until Monday to decide).

Golden Boy Promotions is excited to announce the premiere of a new Los Jean Pascal and Bernard "The Executioner" Hopkins Announce Upcoming FightAngeles fight series adapted from the original Fight Night Club series set to launch exactly one month from today. The new series will take place monthly beginning Friday, March 6, 2015 from the historic Belasco Theater in downtown Los Angeles and will feature the future stars of boxing from Southern California in exciting, can’t-miss matches in an intimate setting. It will be featured as part of the highly rated show Golden Boy Live! on FOX Sports 1 and FOX Deportes.
Golden Boy Promotions Founder and President Oscar De La Hoya will host a press conference next week in downtown Los Angeles to unveil details for the new Fight Night Club series. Also in attendance will be Los Angeles’ undefeated super bantamweight prospect and 2012 U.S. Olympian Joseph “Jo Jo” Diaz Jr. who is set to headline the March 6 event. A full lineup of young undefeated prospects on the card will also be announced during the press conference.
“The rebooted series will be the most unique sports and entertainment event in downtown Los Angeles every month, providing an experience unlike any other the city has to offer,” said Oscar De La Hoya, Founder and President of Golden Boy Promotions. “The series will give the hardcore fans, the casual fans and new fans the opportunity to get up close to the ring, to feel like they are part of the fight and enjoy the experience in a VIP club atmosphere. It has been a dream of mine to bring this exciting live event back to my hometown of Los Angeles.”
Golden Boy Live! is known for showcasing the brightest stars in the sport and the new Los Angeles based fight series will present these exciting matchups in a nightclub atmosphere with an original setup. The boxing ring will be set on the main floor of the Belasco Theater with on-camera standing room for fans in front of the ring similar to a concert pit, as well as, reserved balcony and floor seats. Los Anegeles’ own DJ Ray of Big Boy’s Neighborhood will spin music during the fights and fans will be able to dance and mingle with the fighters when the venue converts into a night club, in a VIP experience not matched by any promoter in the industry.
The original Fight Night Club was Golden Boy Promotions’ critically acclaimed live boxing series hosted at Club Nokia in downtown Los Angeles. The series produced present-day boxing stars including Abner Mares, “Vicious” Victor Ortiz, Ronny Rios, Carlos Molina, Manuel “Tino” Avila, Fidel “The Atrisco Kid” Maldonado Jr., Jessie Vargas, Luis Ramos Jr. and many others who went on to become world champions, and some of whom are still in the running for title matches. The return of the rebooted live show will again be a platform for young talent to display their skills, entertain local family and friends, be showcased on national television and make steps towards their dreams of becoming world champions.

What does Floyd have to do with GGG lol
Speaking of, Andre Ward said he'd fight Floyd at 160, but he's not willing to do so with GGG.
GGG wants to unify the division but its getting increasingly difficult, if he doesn't get a unification bout by the end of this year I can see him going up in weight, too many pussies at 160.

I Want Fury Next - Deontay Wilder
February 07, 2015
Deontay Wilder (33-0, 32KO's) WBC heavyweight champion can't wait to get in the ring with EBU/WBO International/British champion Tyson Fury (23-0, 17KO's). After that he says he wants IBF/IBO/WBO/WBA heavyweight champion Wladimir Klitschko (63-3, 53KO's).
Both Wilder and Fury have been throwing verbal shots back and forth with each other over twitter. Wilder won the WBC title back in January over Bermane Stiverne. Fury return to the ring against Christian Hammer at the end of this month at the O2 Arena in London.
Wilder told the Alabama News. "I've been calling him year and years. I think he's on of the exciting guys over in the U.K. and I'm doing my thing here in the USA. I think UK vs USA would be a great clash. Fury is who I want next, but boxing is a business many don't understand so it makes them frustrated. Some fights won't happen at the time that people want them and some fight will never happen, I'm trying to get every fight I want to happen at the right minimal time of it happening as well, too.
