    For GGG or any of these guys, of course the Floyd fight is the most appealing, best money and exposure.
    Yes i think he will vacate, the money is at 147 now

    you have a lot of young talent, Floyd will most likely beat them all, but these guys all have heart from Garcia, to Khan to Broner, Devon, Bradley and possibly a Pac match up, (if he can drop Arum in order to make the fight happen)

    I rather see Floyd fight boxers who can keep up with him, who are compact and fast.

      This guy doesn't belong in the ring with Floyd, we are heading to freak match up territory.

      People want to keep pushing the bar to one extreme after the next with Floyd and he still doesn't get credit in some folks eyes.

      GGG should go pick on men his own size
      I don't think someone like GGG is afraid of guys his own size or those bigger than him. It's just that Floyd is the sports biggest cash cow and is so good those of a similar size probably don't have a shot.

      GGG may be naturally bigger than Canelo (hard to say since Canelo is still so young), but Canelo has outweighed Golovkin on fight night, so it isn't as stark as you make it seem.

      Also, it isn't like this situation has no historical parallels. I know that Robinson fought Maxim even though there was a fairly large disparity in weight.

        If you really follow boxing closely then you know that Garcia and Broner are the only two with a shot.
        Sound "Boxers" with great defenses are the only dudes with a legitimate shot against Mayweather. I am NOT saying they're ready now, but in the near future they will be.

          I don't think either Garcia or Broner have great defenses.

            He only has a chance because he is a much bigger and stronger guy, given he'd have a huge size advantage in every way shape and form

            In the opposite spectrum It'd be like throwing GGG in the ring with Haye

            When has GGG last fought at 154? exactly

              Haye weighs 190?

              It's not just the he's bigger (that definitely plays a part), but also that he possesses great power (certainly more than Canelo) and knows how set up his shots. He's arguably the most skilled offensive-minded fighter in the sport.

                Also Pacquiao vs Mayweather has no more luster in my opinion. Dude lost two straight fights. Stop it just stop it.

                The only people who still wanna see those two fight are Mayweather haters!
                What is it with these alts saying this crap? Never saw the Bradley fight eh?

                  It's kind of like saying Canelo must have given Floyd some trouble since one judge had it a draw.

                    Floyd struggled to make 150, GGG is massive compared to him

                    It's unrealistic fight and i feel it's unfair

                    Even if Floyd has a chance of winning, it just doesn't sit right with me

                    Floyd will hopefully vacate 154 now, and go and fight at his best weight, i rather see Floyd at his best then fighting in these freak match ups which never live up to the hype.

                    GGG also doesn't belong at 154 and that's just a fact, he's never fought at the weight from my knowledge and if he has it wasn't recently
