    What fighter of note that PBF faced was slower than GGG? Baldo maybe??? Yes if both were the same size PBF is a stylistic nightmare for GGG. A slow orthodox fighter who throws punches from predictable angles that PBF can sit back in his shoulder roll and see coming from miles away is just the kind of fighter PBF loves to face.:deal: Either roll or counter the **** outta him or simply beat him to the punch or stick and move on him. GGG's feet are too slow to cut the ring off and his defense is way too leaky he gets a boxing lesson. I'm dead ass serious when I say he beats him 12-0 if they were both the same size. PBF would have GGG beat in every department other than power, it would be easy work and funny to watch.

    Yes, you overgeneralising and somewhat inconsistent *****. If you say Golovkin didn’t land any flush power punches and then bring up ginger being schooled by Floyd, as an example of how it’s done, I do expect you to do that.
    Stay on topic, hold everyone to the same standard or get ****ed.

    In case you have problems to understand other people’s opinions, here’s the simplified version - Golovkin might not have schooled Canelo 10-2, but he outlanded and outworked him, constantly pushing him on the back foot. Flashy stuff means dick, ginger got outboxed and lost due to not being active.

    He is slow those are facts. What he is is an aggressive boxer puncher with leaky defense if you can stand up to his attack he's not special. Even his power is overrated to be honest. PBF would have a field day with this dude if they were the same size. Don't get mad Lance.;)

    Canelo was far better vs GGG than he was against Floyd, he has learned so much more, Jacobs was nearer his prime than Floyd`s big name opponents and he is far better than Castillo was, Floyd would be a lot slower at middle and his slowing down with age.

    Cheers mate, I have been stressed and unable to watch YouTube videos for years, but now I finally have a permission to change that.
    God bless and seven years of fortune to you, my friend.

    If you put 35-40 year old Floyd in there with GGG.. Sure he may get KO'd.. Prime Floyd absolutely peppers GGG and doesn't get touched doing so. GGG looked slow af compared to Canelo smh. How people say Floyd gets KO'd by anyone is amazing

    Let me get this straight are you saying Jacobs is far better than JLC was? If you're I'm sorry but you don't know **** about boxing.:deal: Jacobs??? Danny ****ing Jacobs??? Whose best win was against Quillen? At no point in his career was he seen as the best MW of his era let alone even the best fighter at his own weight class. While for comparison, JLC was both of these things he was arguably the best LW of the era a P4P top 10 fighter for years and arguably a HOF fighter. He's light years better and more accomplished than Jacobs P4P speaking, no contest. JLC was a great win Jacobs was barely a good win learn the difference.

    GGG took harder punches off Brook than Floyd ever has.

    LOOOOOL GGG would not even need to land flush one jab to floyds shoulder would break his arm

    remember this is not a former flyweight(pac) hitting him its the hardest puncher at mw

    its would be a mismatch

    If GGG hit Floyd, fight over. Floyds chin was shaken against a washed up smaller mosley FFS.

    EXACTLY. Just the punches on the shoulders and body would be enough. Theres a good reason Floyd picked COnner and stayed away from GGG even though Conner was near the same weight if memory serves
