Floyd didn't have an easy time with a much less talented, much easier deterred aggressor like Maidana, nevermind Castillo he should have lost to
He was past his prime when he fought the Best Maidana I Ever seen, twice!
I'll give you Castillo but give Floyd credit, he rematched him within 7 months.
Golovkin doesn't fight dirty like Castillo and hasn't shown what he can do against a quality opponent get.
Floyd loves pressure fighters but dislikes awkward fighters and volume punches.
He fought his worst style match up past his best physically and still won....Lets see Businessman Gennady vs a guy with more power than him and is a solid inside fighter.
so you admit you'e always been wrong? where is his above average power? even at 130 he couldn't put guys away when he was letting his hands go he had to rely on corner stoppages. fantasy floyd is back!
Power does not always =ko's man..Floyd punches hard enough to make fighters step back and to give him his respect
I've always said Floyd's power is underrated. He obviously was never a one hit guy, but he certainly has above average power when he sits on his punches. Anyways. Prime Floyd, not pot shotting Floyd, likely beats GGG in a pretty lopsided decision. Prime Floyd is a stylistic nightmare for GGG, factoring in the skill level, GGG's only real hope is to catch Floyd with something big.
Modern day Floyd gets taken out on a stretcher imo, even at 154 assuming no rehydration clause.
As to rating them I'm pretty much in agreement other than I would bump Floyd's power a bit to 6.5 and switch the chin ratings.

you're basically just speculating about whether or not golovkin would be a dead man at 154 lbs. he beats floyd mayweather. he's just too big and strong. floyd would probably win early rounds with speed, but there's no way he's going to do enough damage to win rounds against a much bigger man who throws more punches and has a very active jab.
golovkin's actually a bad style for floyd, too. i know the flowmoes don't want to hear it, but it's the truth. golovkin would have a hard time with punchers. he's easy to hit. floyd would be doing all the things golovkin wants an opponent to do, like throw very few hard punches back in return and move away.
the WWs who would beat golovkin are the guys who could punch. ray leonard would probably knock golovkin out. i really believe that. he hits too hard, and golovkin's defense is too porous,
Another impossible fantasy fight. No one knows how a mid 30's GGG would be like dropping an entire weight class. Floyd's too big too safely drop to 140 (See the Marquez fight), so maybe GGG is too big to drop down to 154 safely too.
lets rate them
Power - Mayweather 5.5/10 - Golovkin 10/10
Speed - Mayweather 10/10 - Golovkin 7/10
Chin - Mayweather 10/10 - Golovkin 9.5/10
Skill - Mayweather 10/10 - Golovkin 9/10

in 154 GGG is no threath for floyd.if Floyd can take away gggs jab glovkin will have problems with setting anything.keep in mind that floyd have iron chin and ggg wont hit him clean.We dont know how ggg will feel in 154.
Golovkin By KO/TKO, of course.
If the Golovkin at 154 is the same one we see at 160, then Floyd's got no chance. Golovkin is just too powerful and he'll just walk right through Floyd's punches and rip his body to shreds.
GGG by KO is my vote. GGG should get a 8.5 for speed and a 10 for chin in my opinion. He can take a punch like nobody else at that weight. He has never been hurt in any fight. Mayweather was badly hurt by old Mosley and has been rocked by other boxers as well. Mayweather has and excellent chin but GGG has a much better one. Nothing Mayweather throws can hurt GGG while GGG has power to spare to KO Floyd. A good left jab troubles Floyd and GGG has a very accurate and powerful jab that he would be using overtime against Mayweather.
Canelo ducked Golovkin, Golovkin ducked Ward. Tired of fanlboys protecting boxers.
Who said anything about ducking? We were talking weight, you brought it up and now you want it to go away. Fine, back to airing your inferiority complex
If Sage Mayweather and GGG Rated were in the same size and division, I got Floyd in a boxing lesson for the ages.
At 154, still leaning towards Floyd due to him being younger version and closer to his prime.

We've seen the Rubio unofficial weight. 173 when they stepped on scale which is couple hours before fight. Golovkin very scared.
So his highest fight night weight is still lower than Sww Canelos. And unlike Canelo he doesnt refuse to step on the scale fight night. His next fight he came in 171, same weight gain as Ward growing into LHW vs Barrera

Floyd 154 when near his top schools GGG who would be handicapped by the weight having lots of trouble losing those extra pounds that he has never taken off before .
If they were the same size and fought in the same division prime Floyd would make GGG look like a wild swinging chump .
This guy know boxing!
Coward Golovkin hasn't gone down in weight because he's too big. Coward is 175 on fight night.
No, you're thinking Canelo? Ggg's usually 170, many top SWW are heavier fight night. Always low for 30 and 7 day weighins
That would be impossible. He would have to go from the sauna to the ring if he drank anything after the weigh in.
that would probably be mayweather's demands
GGG @ 154
Power - 0/10
Speed - 0/10
Chin - 0/10
Skill - 0/10
He'd literally be dead fam
The Floyd that fought Oscar/Hatton beats the utter dog**** out of a Gennady Golovkin who has steadfastly refused to move from 160lbs, at a weight that he hasn't fought at in nearly 15 years.
Golovkin ends up a dead man on the scale
I agree, possibly a stoppage win for floyd
