    Floyd was seriously hurt by Mosley. GGG would walk trough Floyd's lead right hands and sooner or later catch him.

    GGG would catch him and KO him - Floyd's right hands wouldn't dent GGG...he's too powerful for Floyd

    Golovkin will break Floyd down. Size disparity overshadows speed difference in this case. GGG isn't exactly "0" in skills, and he should walk thru anything Floyd throws. I'd like to see how Golovkin deals with Floyd's elbowing skills--he'll most likely find a way to deal with it early on.

    Poll please.

    These threads are getting ******ed. How about Wladimir sheds down to middleweight to face Martinez.

    Floyd has the style to easily frustrate and out box Golovkin. The only issue is the weight. I favour GGG by about a 60/40 margin just based on his sheer size and aggression. But if Floyd comes in with the perfect game plan and strategy, then all bets are off.

    @147 Mayweather is an ATG and already a shoe in for the BHOF.
    No doubt one of the greatest welterweights of all time and in the top 5 for sure.
    @154 I dont think Mayweather has taken on the best around.
    @160 starting to get redicolus he would be out of his debt against any top 10 middleweight. Yes he has the skills and footwork but he could not hurt a 160 fighter like he could at 147. Also because he would end up being so defensive he would not win the rounds.

    For me the Canelo fight is 50/50 because Canel will be bigger and younger but less skillful.
    I'd slightly Mayweather at 154 vs Canelo but only just by a close decision.

    Anyone who even suggests the idea of Floyd ever having anywhere NEAR a shot in hell.

    What if the Floyd we were talkin' about was 160-pound Floyd Patterson VS. GGG?
