You guys are going for the momentum and opportunity that JP has generated. I wuz thinklng more of an easier fight in March, given that he has just faced Wilder, and may need to wait for his opportunity, with the possibility that the belts may become wide open after the Fury/Usyk fight.
But in saying that, JP does much better when there is pressure on him to perform, as he tends to get unfocused and lazy in the interim. So yeah, bring on the heavy gunz.

Risk/ reward is actually better for the top guys - esp Zhang, AJ, Ruiz, Ngannou

That's my issue. There is no reward for facing the top guys. His standing will be the same in the rankings regardless if he wins. Except perhaps more money. Does he need it? He got $10 million over the weekend. I say fight easier guys until the belts open up, or a mega fight, say with AJ, and then go for it. Time is on his side for the next 6 months. Don't take a hard fight in March.
