    I think Grandpac would KO GGG at 155 easy. & Lil G said he would do so for Floyd years ago. He's scared of them Jackie Chan Handz

    I don't know when this fight could be done, with the covid -19 virus and all, but it would be a very exciting, at the edge of your seat kind of fight while it lasted. It would be huge. I don't think Golovkin is old or shot, I just think that he is still adjusting to his new trainer and adjusting his style. If GGG stayed with Sanchez I'm confident he could defeat anybody in and around his weight division even now, with 50/50 chance with Canelo. With Sanchez I would be more confident in Golovkin to win vs Manny by KO because GGG fought in that style for years, and that style was committed to muscle memory, his new style is still new so people are suggesting GGG is shot. I would like to see GGG fight Charlo and Andrade more than a Pacquiao fight, but if this fight happens it will be intriguing to say the least.

    GGG needs to stay at 160lbs at least. He is too old to be cutting down to a lower weight than ever. He would also do fine at 168lbs as well. He might be better at 168lbs. In the amateurs he fought at 165lbs and carried the weight and power just fine.

    Amateurs is totally different IMO. If my memory is correct, the next weight down is 152. Plus in tournaments they have to weigh in for every fight. Can't have any of this cutting weight then putting on 20lbs before the fight that happens as a pro. Do agree that there is no way GGG should be trying to cut to a lower weight at his age though.

    That makes sense. So if Golovkin weighed in at 165lbs in the morning, then went to breakfast and hydrated then he would probably be about 170lbs or less throughout the day. That's why the 160lbs weight division has been perfect for him, while 168lbs in the pro's they usually gain 15 to 20 lbs. In tournaments I'm sure you only weigh in wonse in the morning, but have many bouts. In duels one team vs another, they weigh in before the competition.

    Only way this fight would happen is if it is at 147 and ggg is half dead from dehydration. Pac gets executed if it is at 160. Fights not happening anyway, so whatever

    I don't think ggg knocks Pacquiao out, ggg has overrated power, Pacquiao is too fast for ggg especially how he looked against Derverchenko
