    Floyd ducked Winky Wright, what makes you think he'd fight GGG at his age now?

    This is what always confused me. Powerful based on what?, who did he beat exactly to prove he's too powerful for someone like Mayweather?. Even after being exposed as a decent fighter at best against Alvarez, you guys are still too deceived by this guy.

    Golovkin will be lucky to land 3 "powerful" shots against Mayweather. He loses by UD in a one-sided fight.

    when prime/postprime maybe, but i think you would have to favour 3g.

    it would be too tight a call for mayweather to take it.

    Prime Floyd.. No question in my mind... Nowadays though.. Theres a reason hes retired and only came back to fight an MMA guy.. Id still give him a chance now honestly..Smart move though.. Guy's a business and ring genius

    How would a guy who started his career at 130lbs and carried no power at 147 or into the 150s be able to keep GGG off him for 12 rounds?

    Underrate GGG all you want but he is one of the best MWs to grace the ring and you only need the eye test to tell you that.

    AT WHAT WEIGHT?

    At 160 GGG will murder Floyd.

    At 154, he will probably be too drained to compete. Floyd could win.

    At any weight where Golovkin can be competitive, he will beat Floyd, probably by KO. He's simply too big, hits too hard, and has too good a jab and footwork. Weight classes exist for a reason.

    Keep my name outta your mouth you soft ****boi unless you want to come down here and see me:wave: and we all know that you don't and you don't want any smoke.

    PBF has made career of proving hating POS like you wrong. I have no doubt that the version of PBF that beat Canelo would beat GGG at 154. Too much speed and reflexes for GGG to deal with. GGG went life and death with Canelo a guy PBF shut out let that sink in. PBF is two levels above the likes of GGG.

    Any version at 154 at 160 GGG would win as PBF has no business at 160 he's already moved up from 130-154.

    PBF was a legend before he fought Berto. WTF are talking about?:deal: He had nothing left to prove and fought Berto to finish out his contract. He just fought in the fight of the era against Pac, Berto was fine after the fight of the era.

    Winky Wright is better than GGG. His wins over Mosley and Tito **** on GGG's whole life.:deal:

    It has nothing to do with keeping someone off. That's what novices like you fail to understand. It's about scoring points and outboxing someone when you have an extreme speed and reflexes advantage on top of that the reach advantage as well. What did Pea Whitaker have to keep JCC off of him? If GGG was a guy with a 76 inch reach with speed then I would say no way in hell would PBF have a chance but he's not. He's slow with short arms and can be outboxed.:deal:

    Yes this is correct,as good as Floyd is and he does have some underrated power as he got Canelos respect he’d find that against GGG he’d not be able to touch him so GGGwould just walk him to the ropes and eventually land something I’d of thought.
    In any case I’ve never thought it right that Floyd should be expected to face GGG as the size disparity is too great
