Is it funny that Golovkin wants Mayweather, but says he's not ready for Ward?

    Because there are some people that say Floyd should man up and fight Golovkin. No one says he should man up and fight Hopkins or Ward.

    Everybody wants to fight Floyd Mayweather.
    Or, should I say it more appropriately, everybody wants a Floyd Mayweather payday.
    That includes Golovkin.

    But for mayweather, which fight actually makes sense to fight?
    Which opponent brings the most bang for the bucks and the most reward for the risk?
    Of Hopkins, Ward, and Golovkin, which presents the better victory for Mayweather if he should fight them?

    The choices are pretty clear and obvious.
    In terms of ease of fight, with the greater reward and most bang for the buck, Mayweather facing either of these three rank as following;

    1. Hopkins (50/50)

    2. Ward (Battle of the P4P)

    3. Golovkin (Boxer vs Puncher)

    The obvious first choice is ATG, 50 year old Bernard Hopkins. Mayweather gets the name, the flash, the cash, and less chances of being KO'ed.

    Next is P4P #2 Ward.

    Last on the list is Golovkin who to date has no resume to benefit Mayweather.

    I don't recall anyone defending BHop or Ward for calling out Mayweather. As a matter of fact, other than Mayweather haters, most people dismissed it as really, really stupid and lame on their part.

    I have no problem with GGG, his manager is making him look like a ****** with all of his unfulfiled boasts though, all of this "he knocks out King-Kong in the gym" **** is getting old.

    I didn't say they defended it, I said I've seen no hate directed at them for it even though what they were doing was actually much worse than what Golovkin didn't even really do. Look at how much hate Golovkin is subjected to from Mayweather fans. It's wave after wave of abuse.

    Let's not kid ourselves, that's the real reason why so many of them hate on him. All he said is he'd like to fight Mayweather at 154, but everyone wants that bloody fight. But Golovkin's a ''big bully'' for saying the same.

    Hopkins would've been calling Mayweather out on live TV and trying to get Larry Merchant to accuse him of being a coward and a chicken too if Mayweather had been the champ in the division below during his MW title reign.

    There was no disrespect on Golovkin's part. He said if Mayweather wants the fight he's prepared to move down to his division for it. He didn't call him out on live TV or ask him to come up in weight to fight at one he's never fought at before. He actually respects Mayweather a lot.

    Bit of a stupid **** , are you ?
    Do you need it spelled out ?

    People buy PPVs for Mayweather, generating a lot of $$$,

    Nobody buys ppvs for Andre, hence little $$$




    And the bit about ducking Kid Chocolate ?

    :rofl

    But Mayweather fighting LHW Hopkins or SMW Ward is asking too much. However, Golovkin's a MW who is about the same size as Canelo so size isn't really the issue. I'm not calling for Mayweather to take that fight. I don't think he should. I just don't think it's about Golovkin's size or weight, I think it's his power and ability that makes him too dangerous for Mayweather. However, most of the Mayweather fans I've seen discussing a potential fight between the two say he would be easy work for Mayweather.
