Comments Thread For: J. Mayweather on Golovkin: Forget Floyd, Fight Ward

[Boxing Goat]

Hey Jeff, why doesn't Floyd just forget "so and so", "insert random fringe contender name here" or "what's his name again?" and fight Pacquiao?

[gbonafide]

How about he fights both?

[sicko]

Well that is the logic and most REALISTIC thing to do, one guy is 2 weight classes down and the other guy is only 1 weight class higher. I would much rather put on 8 Pounds than to Drain Down to 152

in all his years as a fighter floyd jr has never accepted a challenge like Triple GGG and he never will. as far as a legacy goes he has none. if floyd jr had any balls he would fight Triple GGG bare knuckle in red square at high noon winner take all

Isn't GGG a HBO fighter? How would that fight be made if both fighters wanted it?

[InYourFace]

Its clear your dumb ass hasn't been watching boxing that long. Floyd fought De La Hoya and Cotto with them weighing in at 54. Floyd fought Canelo at a catch weight of 52 but it doesn't matter because Canelo was able to fully rehydrate on fight night, plus, Canelo is the bigger pugilist anyway. At the end of the day Floyd really didn't have to fight Canelo, but he fought him anyway.

A fight against Ward could be at least as big as Canelo-Lara or even Cotto-Martinez.

It would be bigger - 2 undefeated p4p guys, one gold medalist, one silver medalist, only thing tho, is one has cleaned out his division, the other is trying to, but no real takers

Goosen busy with him right now, might need a tune-up lawsuit afterwards before moving on

Trainer Jeff Mayweather, who is also a former fighter and the uncle of WBC/WBA 147 and 154-pound champion Floyd Mayweather Jr. - would like to see WBA/IBO middleweight king Gennady Golovkin (30-0, 27KOs) move up in weight to face the top guy at super middleweight, Andre Ward.

Golovkin, and his trainer Abel Sanchez, have stated in several interviews that they are wiling to drop down to 154-pounds for a fight with Mayweather.

Jeff says Golovkin's willingness to fight Mayweather at 154 is nothing more than a payday grab. If he really wants the fight, then Golovkin - as Saul Alvarez was forced to do - would have to drop down to a weight below the junior middleweight limit.

I like both fighters and Jeff is right.
I been saying the same thing. Everybody wants GGG to go after the smaller Cotto and Floyd. But don't want him to fight Ward

Man I hope Ward starts to call him out. So called cherry picker Floyd's Resume craps all over GGGs....time for GGG to start building a resume

[roademier]

Floyd's comfortable doing what he wants and his fans are more than willing to defend his choices.

Floyd fought Canelo at a catch weight of 52 but it doesn't matter because Canelo was able to fully rehydrate on fight night.

Dumbass, guess you forget to add the part where Floyd said "I don't do Catchweights, as far as I'm concerned, Cotto is still undefeated". "I want a guy at his natural weight".
