    Yeah because what he has done so far in his career has not worked well at all.

    I'd respect his *****. I remember a few years ago he was thinking of fighting Martinez.

    Pac is too small for GGG. THis is a mismatch, not fair to Pacman.

    Floyd is the 154 lb Champ. He needs to grow ***** and fight GGG. As 154 Champ and the self masterbated TBE he should be willing to meet GGG's unique stance to take on anyone a weight class below through a weight class above.

    The point is, there really is no one left for Floyd to fight, unless he waits for a healthy Pac rematch, but even their actual fight was a shadow of what it would've been 6 years ago. Floyd says he's the best ever, well, the best ever would do something special, which floyd has never really done. He doesn't take risks whatsoever. He only takes fighters on that he's a heavy favorite to beat, so everyone is expecting him to win already, and he does in the same way every fight leaving fans unimpressed. That isn't special, that isn't greatness. True greatness is doing something unexpected and special. Had he gone out and blasted Pac and KO'd him, then hey, we can talk a bit then. But if floyd wants to cement his legacy past being undefeated against 90% nobodies, he will take a mega fight, like oscar did, like Trinidad did, like jones did etc.

    If Golovkin has a fight below middleweight then calls Mayweather out, that qualifies as a duck. Or if Mayweather has a fight north of 154.

    Manny is a 135lbr who's been fighting 145-155lb fighters for almost 10 yrs.

    His maximum fight night weight has been 153 lbs.

    Thats less than Bud Crawfords LW weights.

    Let's not pretend for a second that Manny is a genuine WW. He's just so fast and his punches have such a high accumulative effect.:good
