If Mayweather moved up to fight GGG in 2014, who would have been the favorite?

    Saul is the white boy Jamez Toney but with salsa

      Lol Saul who is bitter because his real dad is a travelling us based salesman of irish background wishes he has a percentage of the slickness and timing Toney did.....who I wish they would have never shown on the scale I would rather read about that.

        How could this possibly be a serious question? Golovkin would have destroyed Floyd. There are weight classes for a reason, as we will see tomorrow night.

          GGG vs May....sigh
          So much is expected of May
          So little of "that other guy" (teehee)

          A better thread would be
          "GGG kept his 'anyone from 154 to 168' promise and fights Ward !"
          Get smashed into oblivion for the trouble.

                Because you know who fought everyone. Floyd only deals in fantasy

                  Ward's last fight at 168 was in 2013 and in 2014 his trainer said that he could no longer make that weight.

                  Also worth noting that Ward never kept his promise to move up to HW and fight Klitschko. And the only thing Andre the fiddler ever smashed into oblivion was Kovalev's nuts.

                    I dont think anyone has yet to answer the actual question. A lot if people have said who they thought would win the fight, but the question is, who would be the favorite?

                    I think Floyd opens up as a slight favorite. He had a lot larger fan base at the time, so they wouldve bet him up leading up to the fight, with a late surge of betting on GGG pushing the odds back down to Floyd being a slight favorite
