    Or maybe he can't be bothered to argue with a moronic fanboy...

    GGG isn't 6'1 with a 76 inch reach fighting at MW now is he? He has short arms is slow and can be outboxed.

    The Canelo Floyd fought was not as good as the current one now, you know that Canelo yeah ? See how easy that was !

    Did I say that? Nope. I said bigger fighters than Floyd survived against GGG. Floyd couldn't because he's small even at welter.... Hence why he never stepped in with Thurman, Spence, Brook etc.

    The Canelo PBF fought was a undefeated top 10 P4P fighter just like the one GGG fought the only difference is that Canelo was undefeated and PBF was older than GGG was when he fought him in his 5th weightclass, his worst weightclass I may add, while GGG fought a smaller man at his career weight, you know that Canelo.:wave:

    Sure the PBF that beat Canelo beats Spence, Brook and Thurman. Wishful thinking gets PBF haters no where, when will you learn? How many times do you have to be proven wrong?:hang

    I suppose that I could write:

    Floyd has had all his hardest fights against pressure fighters and in Golovkin he faces la creme de la creme. Golovkin has a high connect rate and is a particularly busy fighter that sets his work up from behind a superb jab. He closes the ring off like nobody Floyd has fought. Floyd has been caught out by far lesser fighters than Golovkin (eg Maidana) and if a guy like Maidana has PBF sweating then GGG will KHTFO. All of Floyd's tricks and traps will mean nothing because Golovkin will walk right through them just like he walked through the punches of much heavier hitters like Canelo. Speaking of Canelo, the 152 weight-drained plodding version Floyd fought is in no way comparable to the fleet footed, 160lb version that was bursting at the seams with muscle, that Golovkin fought. If for some reason Golovkin finds it hard to land on Floyd's head, he is a devastating body puncher and has one-shot KO'd people to the body before. The stylistic edge is wholly with Golovkin. Floyd is going to have to run and move every minute and somehow manage to outpoint the much larger and stronger Golovkin from a distance, because the moment GGG starts to find his range and pepper Floyd, it's over. Golovkin just has to do what he normally does, and he will very likely win by stoppage.

    Wrong! GGG isn't likely to win by stoppage because he's not going to land anywhere near the power shots on an ATG defensive fighter and quite frankly I'm embarrassed for you that you continue to downplay that fact as if it means nothing. As for the body GGG doesn't even go to the body anymore since he started facing more legit fighters why? Devastating body puncher? Based on what? And he wouldn't start going to the body against PBF either so just stop it. Offense sells tickets but defense wins championships always remember that. PBF has made better fighters than GGG look average and PBF haters look like fools time and time again because of this.

    Maidana and GGG fight nothing alike Maidana is a dirty fighter who likes to rough house and foul he also throws punches from awkward angles especially a looping overhand right he also throws punches even if he knows they won't connect. GGG does none of this, he's orthodox and light years more textbook and like I already explained this to you earlier in this thread why PBF loves fighting guys like GGG because his whole defense is set up to shut guys like GGG down. Even still PBF was past his prime against Maidana 37 and got cut early on in the first fight against Maidana from a foul which bothered him for a few rounds. After he recovered he went to work winning rounds.

    How is GGG a stylistic nightmare when he's beaten in every skill department by PBF? And has only power and size but not reach which is key. You couldn't be more wrong here. At the end of the day GGG has shown the ability to be outboxed Canelo did it Jacobs did it Brook did it for stretches but none of these guys are within light years of PBF skill wise reflex or speed wise. PBF controls range and distance too well for GGG add the fact that GGG has leaky defense is slow and never fought a guy within a galaxy skill wise of PBF and you have a recipe for another boxing lesson dished out by PBF. Like I said earlier if they were both the same size this fight wouldn't even be worth talking about, and would be easy work for PBF.

    Don't mean jack. My argument is hes better now than the Mayweather version. Canelo's a big weight cutter, GGG could early on imo make 154lb, not now. The difference between the 2 is one cuts more than the other, natural size with them 2 isn't worth talking about ! End of lesson blood !

    Aint it obvious GGG would be way too much !Style wise hes a nightmare for Floyd, add in the fact hes naturally bigger and a lot stronger has a concrete chin on him and punches like a mule, excellent ring generalship. Jeez, hes the fighter that makes Floyd look overated if they had ever fought. Mismatch !

    What part of PBF moved up 5 weightclasses and was past his prime older than GGG was when he fought Canelo don't you understand? PBF has no business at 154 anyway he started at 130. GGG is the bigger man facing Canelo he's a career MW. I don't know if Canelo is any better because he would always lose to PBF because PBF is a horrible styles match up for Canelo, he can't beat PBF at his game.
