Floyd Mayweather Sr., the father and trainer of WBC/WBA welterweight/junior middleweight champion Floyd Mayweather Jr., is picking super middleweight king Andre Ward to easily defeat WBA/IBO 160-pound champ Gennady "GGG" Golovkin.
Ward is looking to face Golovkin in the fall. Golovkin's team is more focused on trying to capture the remaining middleweight world titles. They would like to get their hands on IBF champion David Lemieux of Canada, but that is unlikely to happen.
Floyd Sr. has a lot of respect for the skill set of Ward, stating that he even ranks on the ability level of Mayweather Jr.
"I think Andre Ward would beat the hell out of him. Andre Ward would beat him easy, because [Golovkin] ain't got no skills like that. Andre Ward has real skills. He has skills like my son got. He might not be better [than my son], but he got skills like my son got. Triple G would be cut off to Triple nothing," Mayweather Sr. told Hoop Jab.
