    I think GGG looked bad on purpose to lure in Floyd for a mega fight in September.

    If GGG had blitzed Jacobs outta there in a few rounds, there wudda been no chance of Floyd considering GGG.

    GGG didn't land many big shots as he usually does vs. Jacobs and against Brook as well he let himself get out boxed on purpose to lure in Jacobs and it worked, hopefully the same for Floyd now.

    #49-1

    Jacobs was 190 lbs at fight night. Floyd would weigh 150, Floyd would never ever fight Golovkin

    Jacobs is 6'1 and weighed 180-185 come fight time.

    Floyd is like 5'8 and would weigh prob tops 160 on fight time.

    Jacobs is younger too and Floyd is older than Triple G.

    The way Triple G cuts off the ring Floyd would spend the whole night leaning back on the ropes taking heavy fire.
    In short he would be brutalized.

    He knows it and thats why he was NEVER going to fight Triple G.

    And to be clear he shouldn't have to. He did his thing let him enjoy retirement.

    If he hobbled to the ring on crutches with one arm in a sling, he might entice Floyd to take a chance

    GGG has always said he'll go to 154 for Floyd, I think this fight should happen this year.

    If GGG beats Canelo, then Floyd might consider fighting GGG but I think he will stay retired or just fight the Irishman
