Why is GGG the only Middleweight you want to see fight Floyd?

    I remember way back when people claimed he ducked Martinez and Williams at 154. Now people want him to move up and fight GGG but no one else, why? :huh
    What if he moved up and fought Andy Lee and then Cotto or Canelo (who ever wins that fight)?
    Would the victory not be legit?
    We know the WBC would push Gennady to the side if Floyd wanted at that 160 crown bad enough and would not think anything of it.:-(
    I was really just wondering.

    Everyone else is easy except GGG.. GGG would beat Floyd and expose his entire career as a fraud that ducked everyone.. If that makes any sense... :lol:

    But that would also happen if Gennady fought Ward.

    According to some.

    But anyhow, GGG is the only 160 who some think could drop down to 154 and have a good shot to win.

    Plus its just that GGG is such a good, and technical attacker. The best technical attacker with underrated defense vs the best technical defender with underrated offense is just the type of match some people think is actually worth $100 to watch.

    Let's not do that again.:lol: We gotta learn from our past. Money would skeet his shorts at the opportunity to make another 300 million.

    Nice list! I would at least like to see him build up instead of draining GGG or just jumping into the ring with him. I know people hate him, but the fight has to be fair.

    Sure he should have a warm up or two.

    Because Golovkin would come down to 154 and knock Void out. Golovkin knows how to cut off the ring, he would not just follow Void around. Castillo beat Void and so did an over-the-hill Oscar, but Void's judges gave Void a split decision.................Void is void. Void did refuse to fight Martinez. The only reason Cotto fought Martinez was because Martinez was a cripple, he was finished because of all his injuries...........................Martinez refused to fight Golovkin..............Quillin refused, Lee has now refused, Cotto refused to fight Golovkin although Golovkin is Cotto's mandatory, Cotto is so afraid that he will pay Golovkin step aside money so he can fight Alvarez..................Golovkin will be the mandatory for the winner, Golovkin will knock out either one.................

    I don't even think Mayweather is the best at 154 and wouldn't make it if he stayed there.

    Oscar, Canelo, Dawson... All claimed they could drop weight and look what happened.

    Bull**** Martinez was injured the majority of the time GGG was building his name recognition in America, and he sure as hell hadn't earned a shot a Sergio because of the win over Proksa and Rosado, if Martinez had of beaten Cotto and looked good doing it, I have no doubt Martinez would have fought him, so stop making it out like Martinez was ducking anybody.

    Maravilla was no punk and fought everybody to prove it. He would have fought GGG with no problem. You are right GGG was unknown and pretty much still has a lot to prove. Why are guys trying to hype GGG over Maravilla? Have they compared resumes? Sergio deserves the hype that Gennady gets for beating absolutely no one.

    They will only discredit the win like they do Dawson for Ward or the 2 pounds that so called drained Canelo for Floyd (even though he looked better in that fight than his last 3 stamina wise).:huh

    Yep. Its entirely possible that GGG would be drained beyond recognition.

    Still, you have to admit it would be a pretty dramatic run up waiting to find out.
