Serious question: Would James Toney at 160 have beat GGG?
Great question, but would a younger Hopkins or RJJ beat GGG?
We need another fight night
RJJ in his prime would outpoint GGG. No way he risks a KO. I don't know that RJJ was the best boxer ever, but he'samongthe most athletic ever.

He said he wants that rematch over the JFE one. I thought Cuadras had a chance to stop him late if he pressed the issue, so the second fight should be more entertaining if he tries to stop Chocolatito. I'd still pick Chocolatito by decision, and IMO he won the first fight.You think chocolotito can get that W again tho??
How will ggg jacobs work tho if they fight on 2 different networks

Early returns on satellite trends show the @Canelo @LiamBeefySmith fight is in the 290k-310k range for PPV buys, about 600k less than Cotto.

Numbers, interpreted by source, indicate the mainstream/crossover crowd wasn't there for @Canelo.

Hearn said GGG-Brook did 400k in the UK.
update
While the attendance was more than 51,000, the $64.95 pay-per-view price and disappointment over Alvarez not fighting unbeaten middleweight champion Gennady Golovkin triggered a mass defection.
In November, Alvarez’s unanimous-decision victory over Puerto Rico’s four-division champion Miguel Cotto drew 900,000 buys. Around 500,000 bought Alvarez’s May knockout of British welterweight Amir Khan.
Yet, industry sources claim with satellite figures in and early cable companies reporting, the Alvarez-Smith fight should finish with between 250,000 and 300,000 buys.
The tone from executives at competing promotions Thursday was that Alvarez and his promoter, Oscar De La Hoya, did themselves a great disservice by indicating Alvarez was fighting Golovkin following the Khan triumph.
