    He said he'll go down to 154 for Floyd, so I think after Brook this is what he should do, to set up The Fight Of The Century. I see it doing 5 Million PPV's.

    If I were Floyd, I'd make sure it was no higher than 152. What was the Canelo fight? 151? 152?

    Can't imagine him facing Golovkin higher than what he faced Canelo out. And he shouldn't need to fight any higher than that. If he came back at 40 and took the risk against someone as great as Golovkin is perceived to be, then he will have complete control.

    Would Golovkin agree to 154 but not 152 or 150 for that payday? The fact that he's taking a cash grab against an unproven welterweight tells me he'd go to 147 if it landed him the Floyd jackpot.

    Floyd will never fight GGG but you watch him calling golovkin out....he will call out GGG and be vocal about it so as to pump up his fight return..

    Last I saw he was chasing McGregor around like the two of them were gonna ****.

    First Conor calls out Floyd, then Floyd calls out Conor.
    With all that testosterone between them there is no time for Golovkin.

    That number was suggested by Canelo to get the Mayweather fight and then when Floyd called him on it, Canelo changed his tune.

    Catchnelo is a more fitting nickname than Catchweather who's only been in one catchweight fight that I remember.

    It wasn’t suggested by Canelo. This has been thoroughly examined already. CATCHweather is fitting because Floyd didn’t do catchweights remember. Floyd said, unlike Pac, he don't drain fighters. He said he still considered Cotto an undefeated fighter because he was drained vs Pac.

    All that went out the window when he fought Canelo. The guy who stated that he was above draining fighters and having catchweights, tried to get Canelo to agree to a catchweight, showing himself to be a huge hypocrite.

    Then he tried to lie about it and act like Canelo wanted the catchweight. Floyd became the CATCH WEIGHT KING by needing a catchweight to beat Canelo.

    Floyd will never take that fight at any weight. It's a mismatch at this time. 5 years ago at 154 it would be a good fight

    Lol at Floyd at Floyd supposedly being the catchweight King when you have guys like Canelo and Cotto setting the middleweight limit at 155 and Pacquiao fighting at 145 for WW and 150 for Jr. MW.

    Well Canelo wouldn’t have had to move up to MW had Floyd fought him at 154 or rematched him at 154. (or had he vacated the belts)

    And once again it’s important to remember that Cotto started with the catchweights at MW, not Canelo.
