I don't like the fight because I think it's a weight miss-match. although there is only a 6 lb difference between JMW and MW, Floyd has never hit the scales at the JMW limit, not even on fight night and GGG weighs north of 170 on fight night.
But lets say it happens and Floyd wins. Would his detractors still say he's scared of Manny? Hell, even if Floyd loses would folks still claim he's scared of Manny?
Don't be surprised if this fight happens because I think enough buzz could be generated were the Floyd/Canelo PPV numbers could be eclipsed. Every Floyd fan and hater would buy this fight. Especially the haters because they feel this would be the fight where Floyd gets KO'd or hurt badly. And based on the stuff that gets posted on this site and others by so called fans of the sport, to see Floyd lose would be better than getting the opportunity to sleep with the woman and/or man of your dreams.
Even if Floyd lost this fight, I feel it would do no damage to his reputation or legacy because the challenge is so great for a man his natural size. To me it would be like RJJ going up to HW to fight Ruiz.
