    Golovkin is just too big for him. It'd be a massacre dude.

    what does being big have to do with it?

    geale was bigger than cotto....didnt geale weigh in at 182 on the day of the fight in clothes? so prob 177... after weighing in at 157.....and he got worked......floyd would prob have to work and stay focused for every second of every round(but he does that for the most part anyway).....but id still bet on floyd winning the fight

    At a certain point, size matters. FM would weigh in at JMW. GGG would weigh in at light heavyweight.

    Also, that was Geale. Golovkin isn't Geale.

    Ggg, Spence, Crawford, Thurman, Lara, and Brook, in that order. 3rd time might be a charm for Maidana. Would rather see Mayweather vs Brook than Berto.

    You seem to be looking for the "who is the only top 20 WW Floyd could KO?" thread.

    I don't know. Even God didn't help Pacroid beat him. Time, the thing that beats us all is probably most likely.

    Floyd has passed his prime and will nearly be 39, so realistically guys that had no shot 2 or 3 years ago have a much better chance now. The proof is in the Maidana rematch. Although there is zero doubt about who won, he didn't dominate a guy he had already figured out.

    Floyd nut huggers not being realistic here. Thurman, GGG,Khan, Bradley,Spence (he may have a psychological advantage) and a host of other guys could seriously push Floyd at this stage. Not saying he loses, but he is more beatable than he ever has been.
