    lets say Floyd would decide to fight @ the proper weight i.e 160 lbs for the MW lineal title with Cotto and then unify titles with GGG.

    If he would beat them, would be a better accomplishment than if he would've fought Pacquiao in 2009 @ 147 lbs and of course beat him ??

    what do you think Floyd and Pacquiao fans ?:think

    anyone who actually believes Duckweather would fight GOLOVKIN at a catch weight of 154 let alone 160 is really away with the fairies

    other then fighting pac I wouldn't mind it one bit if he signs to fight golovkin I would enjoy him getting killed

    No it's the opposite, he would try to bloat Pac to 154 and drain GGG to 145 or something.

    You're crazy if you think he's going to get in the ring with Golovkin

    :good 1 serious answer from you.


    thats why I mentioned both guys (Cotto and GGG). I think this performances i.e beating Cotto and GGG @ 160 lbs would enhance a lot Floyds legacy par to the FAB4's and would surpass a win over a 2009 prime Pacquiao @ 147. People, even Floyd's haters would give him respect.

    I disagree. Fighting Cotto is still a duck of Pacquiao because there's no valid reason right now not to.

    Pac@147>Cotto@160

    If he fights Cotto at 160, they'll weigh the same as the first match.

    and then GGG ?

    I understand what you say. Cotto probably would not weigh much more (weigh in & fight night) than in their first bout but Golovkin who's a natural MW would come at his own weight (weigh in & fight night).

    If he were to fight Golovkin then, for me, that excuses the Pacquiao debacle.
