    I donno man, it's kind of pointless don't you think.

    I would be very excited to watch Wilder vs Pac, because I want to see Pac's glass shatter again for conning the public for so long and still conning them to this day. But it won't happen. :|

    Floyd vs GGG is almost as ridiculous as Wilder vs Pac

    Maybe a bit. :yep

    But not too much.

    There would be a bevy of excuses.

    1. GGG = too green
    2. GGG has never fought anyone of that level
    3. GGG is a punching bag, etc. :-(

    I didn't say 160. I said it would be a real test at 154 if Golovkin can make the weight without completely killing himself. Nobody currently fighting at 147 stands any real chance, IMO.

    People are saying that Brook, Thurman, Garcia, Khan would give him a bevy of issues.

    I think the older Floyd gets, the more vulnerable he'll be to the talents at 147 who are young and have energy and stamina to burn to produce the volume of activity that is more expected at the lower weight classes. Mayweather is not prime any more — I repeat, not prime.

    Exactly, I think he should try to repel the youngsters once or twice more.

    If he can't do it anymore, just retire.

    Win or lose, his legacy is already secured. Even if he loses to Paulie, it won't matter no more.

    Legendary career.

    I'd be happy to see it at 154 too! I'd even be excited if it got made at 147. Floyd's still the best fighter in the world. I'd be incredibly excited if somehow it got made at any weight and would absolutely not hold it against Floyd in any way whatsoever if it doesn't.

    Let's be honest.

    If GGG feels the effects of being drained, would you really like it?

    Be honest here.

    Floyd is deservedly the #1 p4p on a mixture of ability and meaningful recent results but I no longer think he's the "best" fighter in the world, though his greatness and sporting professionalism has allowed him to cling on to as much of his form as possible.
