    You have no clue if he is terrified of Ward or not, he certainly doesn't seem anxious to take that risk.

    Hypocrisy~ try not to do it.
    What exactly did I contradict myself on there chap? I'm not sure you really get what I'm saying but I know for a fact that tripple G is not scared to face Ward. He has publically said he would fight him.

    The point I made was that he is a middleweight and hasn't even unified the middleweight division yet. Why would he go fight at 168 at this point? It would make no sense.

    I think that you are purposely getting off subject because you know I'm right.

    On topic: Just because you think Floyd is a better boxer, doesn't mean he automatically beats Golovkin if he were at 147. You say it does as if it were a fact, which is inaccurate. You are wrong.

    -End of debate.

      Point is you are speaking of certainty with something you can't know, you got on your high horse saying how could I know who the better boxer is and how could I possibly know. Saying and doing are two different things and words are cheap

      I know because I have watched a fuck ton of boxing and Golovkin is not a throw caution to the wind guy he tries to box that doesn't work with a better boxer 95% of the time especially if they are of similar size which is the basis of the thread.

      I said that is what will happen as it is an opinion based question and I am certain of how it would go.

      And you haven't ended anything as once again saying and doing are different, saying something is over and actually ending it are totally different things~ you haven't contradicted a damn thing I have said

        Oh and since this is an opinion question how can I be wrong, Floyd wrecks Golovkin under these condition, prove me wrong.

          i don't think so. golovkin is an ok sized middleweight, so hypothetically we'd be shrinking him down to an ok sized welterweight, basically the same size as mayweather, but slower and maybe with a smaller reach

          He has a punchers chance, but thats pretty much it

            Lol, it seems you are getting a little riled up here.

            Look, I can clearly see you don't get that what you are saying is only an opinion here and trying to pass it off as a fact. That is your mistake. You should try looking up the definitions of 'fact' and 'opinion' sometime, I feel it would seriously help you out.

            I'm don't trying to help you understand so I'll just leave it at that.

            The poll was asking for an opinion, so give a opinion in opinion form and stop trying to pass it off as if it's a foregone conclusion. Floyd doesn't just beat anyone because you have watched a lot of boxing and think his style is all superior. It just doesn't work that way. If that was the case Ali would have never been beaten by Frazier. Capiche?

            Everyone has a weakness and if the right one comes along to exploit it, everything can change. After all, Castillo basically beat Floyd anyways.
            If I recall correctly, he landed like 100 more punches or something and won on half of the presses opinions. Even Dan Rafael had it a draw I think.

                  Even if he were a natural 147 fighter, he would still be bigger than Floyd.
