    oh dear. "shamelessly calling out" to expressing an interest (which i didn't and wouldn't dispute) is quite the climbdown. ducklerr has you about right.

    What is the question?. Who is a tougher opponent than GGG for Mayweather at 154?. I already answered that question but will gladly answer it again.

    Alvarez II, Cotto II, Lara and Trout will all be as tough if not tougher than someone that's moving down to 154 after a decade of being at 160+(GGG did fight weighing 161 before).

    GGG isn't the shameless one, his fans are. Those same idiotic fans that laugh at other fighters for calling out smaller opponents only to hail GGG a hero for calling out fighters two weight divisions below him are the shameless idiots, yes. To GGG's defense, he's merely trying to score a payday and make a living, can't and won't hate on him for that. But sadly no payday comes from fighting opponents you're a 200 to 1 favorite against.

    you're the 1 shamelessly banging on about call-outs, after linking expressions of interest.

    Well, if anyone has the style to beat Gennady, it would be Floyd IMO.

    Stylistically, he's a tough out for anyone. He'd be on his bicycle all night and he'd have to be extremely cautious about making sure he doesn't get close to the ropes where Gennady could potentially cut the ring on him and pin him there. SO I don't think the fight would be action packed whatsoever, I'd imagine FLoyd would fight Gennady similar to how he fought Baldomir, a guy who was around 170 pounds on fight night when he took on Floyf at WW.

    I already think FLoyd is a super fighter, a true ATG. If he could even make it a competitive fight with Gennady, it would just add on to his legacy.

    To be in his late 30's and take on such a dangerous fighter like Gennady would speak volumes about Mayweather's greatness. I wouldn't blame him one bit for going a different direction, but this could be his Roberto Duran moment right here.

    So you asked me to mention smaller opponents GGG continuously calls out. I did mention 3 with links and your response is.... "Those aren't call-outs!, they are expressions of intertest!". :lol: Oh boy, and I thought I dealt with as low of an idiot as I possibly could on here, turns out I have seen nothing yet.

    oh dear, it appears you referred to them as "expressions of interest" yourself, and i was quoting you. pretend that definition is entirely interchangeable with "call-outs" (now continual to boot) if you like, just don't expect anybody with any sense to join you. it's the rest of us dealing with an idiot, quite funny in itself after you whined earlier in this thread about me supposedly calling you names.

    "Supposedly" calling me names, yet this very response is 100% dedicated to calling me names while shamelessly cruising away from the topic at hand. :lol: Your use of words and English for that matter cry mentally ill, it's best to leave it at that.

    incidentally, you linked an article quoting loeffler saying ggg could comfortably make 154 as evidence of continual, personal call-outs by ggg of smaller men. that is truly pathetic.

    Your logic is skewed. If GGG obliterates ONLY bums and is overrated and overhyped, then it's only logical for Mayweather to fight and expose him. Deep down you know, Mayweather knows GGG is the real deal, and there is no easy money here. It was ok to fight pre-Mayweather Canelo without any significant wins on his resume, even though the kid was bigger and had countless KOs. Deep down you know GGG is the real deal, that kills your logic and you replace it with emotions.
