Is a Rudy Gobert Evan Fournier Boxing Match in the Works?
The two French National teammates exchanged jabs on Twitter following the Canelo Alvarez and Gennady “GGG” Golovkin match.
Rudy Gobert hasn’t been shy at all when it came to his recent boxing training. He’s been posting all over social media, perhaps as way of letting future opponents know what’s on the horizon.

Following the recent Canelo Alvarez and Gennady “GGG” Golovkin match, Gobert and Orlando Magic Forward Evan Fournier exchanged Tweets regarding the fight:
Great fight, but once again GGG won to me. As he won the first one. He got him stumbling and should have got the edge. But who knows 🤷🏾♂️, still was a classic.

A Rudy Gobert and Evan Fournier boxing match? Yes, please.
So the question remains: when and where can we expect this fight to happen.
The Jazz Fan Show has only one request: please let us know with plenty of heads up so we can properly prepare (think Malone/Rodman wrestling match).
