    That`s because Floyd has a defensive style where as the fight between GGG and Canelo was action packed, there`s no way Floyd could have taken the punishment GGG took from Canelo in their rematch.

    Are you telling me that Floyd could have taken any former middleweight champs punch? You are aware that hard punching middles punch harder than fighters under 160 right? Floyd would have been knocked spark out if hit clean by a power puncher at 160 like McClellan, even Mosley had Floyd in trouble and Maidana.

    Lol Floyd wasn't even a big welterweight, he always prouds himself on been able to win against bigger fighters and that was at welter and super welter, even at super welter he fought two guys that weren't naturally big for the class and the other two were an MMA fighter and a drained fighter. He has nothing to do at 160, which is obvious, that's why there are weight classes.

    Too bad the Triple Hype tomato can crusher never never stopped a fighter of Mayweathers class, once he even remotely stepped up he struggled and ran razor close with a Mayweather victim.......

    Could would should but never did......two legacy fights against the same opponent resulted in a draw and and a loss. Fact.

    Prime vs Prime it would have been a catchweight affair anyways because GGG aint drawing flys as far as money is concerned, at 155 FMJ takes a clear UD without ANY scary moments, the can crusher will never be able to adjust to Mayweathers punch anticipation.

    BTW, ward would have done a real number on GGG @168, we are talking career nose dive for triple Hype.

    That is not what I said. McClellan wouldn’t ko him. Floyd was old as dirt for Maidana.

    GGG was kind of a small middle who had no head movement. I wouldn’t be surprised if Mayweather lead right handed GGG all night and outclassed him.
