    I am okay with GGG pulling this off. If Floyd wants to fight at 157 and agrees to a 1 million per pound fine with GGG and GGG comes in at 160 and Floyd still agrees to fight and gets schooled. I think GGG deserves all the credit for the win if this happens.

    I'm also pretty sure that if this were to happen and Floyd continued to fight at 160; acclimated to the weight and KO'ed what is considered an ATG and second best 160 lber (essentially what would be the equilavent to Marquez KO'ing Pac) he would definitely be okay with rematching GGG.

    The difference here is that Marquez wants no parts of Floyd. He went in for the payday, got schooled by Floyd and hasn't asked for a rematch since.

    Realize that Marquez has asked for rematches since then but none with Floyd.

      Point is Marquez went up 2 weight classes to challenge Floyd. Cotto going to middle to challenge Sergio. Cotto can't even fight at 154, he's tiny.

      When has Floyd gone up 2 classes to challenge the man at that division? Never is probably the answer we are looking for. Make sense now?

        Floyd was challenging ODH and Mosley at 147 when he was at 135. He was just never given the opportunity to do it.

          Floyd is slightly bigger that's all. His body is thicker and more developed then Mannys.. Except for those freakish calves manny has.. I'm not trying to argue that they are not close in size.

                Marquez went up two weight classes to get the biggest payday of his life. Seriously he had nothing to lose in that fight. Floyd has fought bigger fighters on numerous occasions. Really stop it. U aren't making any sense.

                  I'm making perfect sense. The guy said he should go fight GGG and he would be doing the same thing Marquez and Cotto are doing. That's my point.

                  How about doing it for his legacy? Become the middleweight champion of the world to add to his other achievements. He's a great fighter but he won't challenge himself to be the greatest.

                    Both Floyd and JMM have moved up four divisions since the start of their careers. Marquez has one more fight in his last division than Floyd.
