Let's be real. GGG is not too big for Floyd.

    No he's not too big. He'd make 154 and probably agree to a rehydration limit.

    What he is, is too powerful and skilled.

        Canelo is the toughest comp at 154 based on official victories there (Molina and Lara should be above him if we count unofficial victories). GGG has never fought at this weight.

        Let GGG do his thing at 160, don't use him as a mean to diss fighters you hate.
        I'm just showing how the standards are lower for this guy.

          GGG is bigger, longer, thicker and has more girth than Floyd...and I ain't describing his body-type.

            Mayweather would outbox GGG IMO

                Perhaps this fight can happen down the road once GGG has developed some more star power, and I think he's on a good path towards that. If he does eventually become "worth the risk" to Mayweather, who knows whether this fight will happen. I'd like to know what GGG walks around at before he starts his weight cut. Personally, I don't think 8-10 lbs in either direction makes too much of a difference. I think the speed advantage to the smaller guy easily makes up for that. Speed is such a huge factor in fighting that it may even do more than just wake up for the weight difference.

                  GTFO!!! That dude cant make no 154. I dont care what he says, he looked like a giant next to Macklin, and Macklin was a little bigger than Martinez. There's better more creative ways to hate on Floyd than THIS.

                    Nah too big is accurate.

                    If size doesn't matter then GGG can go fight Andre Ward next. He's available. Why is team GGG shook of Ward??

                      He was lighter fight night than Trout or Alvarez, and that was his career high
