    Humans are greedy,and want fighters to challenge themselfs.maybe some would want to see him lose,some would want to see how truly great he is,and how he would fare when the odds are heavily against him.

    And lastly,to make stuff what makes you truly think i'm witnessing something truly amazing and Floyd is true warrior and is not scared anybody.

    And in boxing it's easiest to archieve by climbing up the weighclasses and defeating bigger opponents.there is no shame in losing,i just happen to respect fighters like Duran who wanted to see where his limits are.some boxers just want to find out how great they are,and leave no if's or but's.

    And lastly,Floyd don't need to move up,but if he wants to archieve Duran like status in history books.then he should take the challenge.but again,there is nothing wrong if he doesn't want that.hope this satisfies you?

    People want to see special athletes to do special thinks and see where those limits are.

    LOL. People act like Floyd is Henry Armstrong.

    NEWS FLASH:

    He's not.

    He needs to lose the "TBE" moniker.

    He should replace it with "HCF."

    He would need every advantage possible just like srl vs hagler. It is possible but GGG would need to be drained with pillows on his hands. The ring would have to be the size of a hockey rink also.

    That's fine.. He should challenge himself.. The thing about that is that 154 is a huge challenge but since he wins, its not good enough.. The bar needs to go up until he lose.. He walks around at 150-155 and after camp weigh 147 even when he fought at 154.. Him fighting at 154 is just a weight that his opponent must reach but he won't make it.. Him fighting a full MW is not him challenging himself.. It's a new bar that will open up a whole new group of people to say he's ducking.. If he somehow beats GGG, then MW is his new standard in opponents.. At least that's what most will say/think.. Not necessarily you, but the people who come here to bash him everyday...

    He can't. I wouldn't bet against Floyd, except in this fight, he'd get demolished. Not at 154 though... Golovkin would be drained.

    Of corse you have a lot of middle weight beating him. He's a welter weigh !!

    So as a Pactart, your saying that Pac can a good percent of middle weights? if yes please not lie to yourself.

    I don't demand Floyd to move up,he is proved to be great without going all the way to MW.he doesn't need to prove himself anymore to be a great fighter.

    But i however understand why people want to see him go up.and i would also like to see,and i would happen to like see him win,and archieve god like status in boxing.

    There is nothing wrong dreaming big,and when you have special athlete like Floyd,people are dreaming to the sky.

    Yes,some would definetly want to see Floyd lose,but i don't get it what is wrong about losing and giving all what you got?and if Floyd would win against GGG.i would happily to see him fight against Ward,then Hopkins/Kovalev.i'm sure he would lose,but would we really care?or hold that against him?i bet everybody would give Floyd massive respect,even the hardcore haters.

    And again i remember you,me and probably many others want to see how far Floyd can go,and defy the odds.and there is nothing shameful if he stays between 147-154.

    Hope you understand my post in good way,and understand what i mean.of course he can stay in WW and clean it,and archieve different kind of god like status.and he can retire right now,and he still would be remembered as ATG fighter.

    Only if you want to be remembered as one of the greatest,you have to do almost impossible thinks in the ring.standards are set so high,and it damages Floyd case that he fights so rarely.so "easiest" way to modern fighters to archieve god status is climbing up in the weights.

    I rate Floyd highly,but i can't put him ahead fighters like Duran etc..and the sad thing is.only way to be consired as great as Duran.he needs to atleast try to archieve the impossible.

    Again,hope you understand my view of point.i understand what you mean,and i gladly accept that.because i also think Floyd has nothing to prove in boxing(however Pac fight would be of course nice think to see)

    You would pick him against Ali at HW. Stop trying to brush off your nutswinging.

    Floyd eeked out a victory against Maidana, he'd get absolutely trashed by GGG

    I get what you're saying.. You're speaking from a fans perspective.. We don't care if he loses.. He will be seen a greater if he does fight guys 20+ pounds heavier than him.. Even if he gets seriously hurt and damaged because he was in way over his head.. Maybe a pinch from a SMW gives him brain damage, at last he fought there at the age of 37.. His health o and/or well being don't mean **** to us...

    Maybe he feels that fighting a MW at 37 years old this late in his healthy career is stupid.. Maybe he feels losing after almost 20 years of winning is not what he wants.. He has clothes that says &0.. Maybe he thinks that him being the guy at 147 and 154 is enough and don't care what you or I think.. It maybe not who knows?

    No, you must have that confused with Pac who is fighting yet another 140 lb fighter and plans to drop down to 140 after this sham of a fight.

    Yea because I'm sure mayweather is so concerned about meeting some troll's merit for greatness. You are a no body, calling him a "b1tch" just shows how much of a wuss you are, pure jealousy.

    His last couple of fights may have been less then desirable, how ever a list with fighters such as

    De LA hoya - before pac @ 154
    Mosley- before pac
    Hatton- before pac
    Jmm-easy win (& I'm the biggest jmm fan)
    Canelo
    Gatti
    Corrales
    A prime Judah

    Is by no means a cherry picked resume. Quit being a sour puss and enjoy boxing.
