    All the greats in the past went up in weight and fought killers

    duran fought barkley and he was smaller then mayweather

    GGG would be the favourite against Mayweather

    regardless of the result Mayweather would get HUGE props for just taking the fight but he knows he would get knocked out in round 1 this is not like Pac who hit hard for a welterweight and was the smaller fighter

    in GGG we have a fighter who hits extremely hard for a mw mayweather would stand no chance but this would really show what he is about.

    You do realise that Mayweather doesn't owe you a knockout loss, don't you? If he won, Kovalev would be next on your challenge list whilst muttering some nonsense about SRL and Hearns.

    Also fighters aren't obliged to climb in weight. ATG careers were and will continue to be forged at a single weight. This is why I don't give GGG loads of **** for staying at 160.

    Why doesn't Kovalev fight Wilder next?

    Because Wilder wouldn't take on Kovalev. Krusher has a pulse.

    cant even make 154 on fight night for his 154 fight (made 152) but you want him to fight a natural middleweight who weighed like 172 on fight night?

    who needs weight divisions

    Golovkin would corner Floyd and break him down with body shots. GGG would fight out of the clinch. GGG is too big too strong for Floyd. I don't care to see an all time great like Floyd get stomped on by a crazy powerful middleweight.

    You want a 40 year old 5 weight champ who's the best fighter of this era with nothing left to prove to move up to a 6th weight class to fight. Yet you don't hold GGG to this same standard.:-( You didn't even want GGG to move up one weight to fight Ward. Quit holding fighters to a different standard you're fine with GGG fighting C class fighters never beating anyone of note and not moving up but PBF who's already an ATG and proven must move up in order to get your respect??? Log off.

    Berto would arguably be the best name on GGG's resume but he's around the 12th best on PBF's.:deal

    Little g is even more of a nobody than Berto, so why would Grand Duke Mayweather waste is precious time on a peasant serf who just happens to also be the village idiot?

    :deal

    He would get knocked out with just a jab in the first round no amount of skills will be enough for the massive power difference
