Comments Thread For: De La Hoya: Mayweather-Golovkin Will NEVER Happen!

[The Big Dunn]

How is Floyd TBE when he can't move up in weight and fight the best? Sugar Ray Leonard and Robinson both moved up to Middleweight and beat the best in that division... De La Hoya moved up to Middleweight and challenged the best in the division and started at the same weight as Floyd..Pacquiao has fought in 8 weight classes... Willie Pep.. Roy Jones won a title at heavyweight... Floyd never takes any risks and will never be considered an ATG..

Floyd is on that Calzaghe level not that Sugar Ray Leonard level..

See my sig. the historians and journalists that voted for the top boxers since WWII in this months Ring magazine disagree with you.

I don't think u guys realize that Mayweather could still make 140. Just cuz he's been cutting a lil bit of weight for 147, & not cutting at all for 154. The dude doesn't belong in that weight class people!!!!! Ok, let's do this, Mayweather is the star... GGG wants him??? Come down to 147. What's next for Mayweather??? Klitschko??? Btw, I'm not a money fan.

o-k,then,give up the jr mw titles drop down to 140/chase pac for a fight!-FOR THE FANS!!!

He becomes the #1 contender to the lineal JMW title. Stop whining and trolling.

The fact is GGG is right now a high risk, low reward fight for anyone who brings in serious money. Fighters like him always have to do something drastic to get big money fights they crave. Either drop to 154 or move up to 168-which takes the Floyd fight completely out of play.

And what does that mean? They're going to force Mayweather to fight him?

Why are you blowing hot air about a fight that's never going to happen?

LOL Floyd is 12 on the list...that's a far cry from being TBE... Floyd should not be ahead of Pacquiao... that's just blasphemy... Ring Magazine..way to go for rewarding a ducker...

[bigjavi973]

More excuses for Floyd lol... Yeah Hagler was an old man when he fought Sugar Ray... he was so old at the age of 32... hahaha

Nice come back...

What excuse. Again, im not a floydie fan and I dont make excuses for him, but you talk out of your ass alot. Could SRL have fought hagler earlier?

See my sig. the historians and journalists that voted for the top boxers since WWII in this months Ring magazine disagree with you.

So a guy who openly admits he ducks fights (see my sig), is the 12th greatest boxer of all time since WWII? LOL... way to go Ring Magazine... Ring Magazine is obsessed with not losing fights... if you see the rankings always inflate undefeated guys even if they fight nobodies...

Floyd isn't undefeated... he lost to Castillo the first fight clearly.. Ring Magazine should have did what it did with Pac-Bradley with Floyd-Castillo js...

Dirk, he can't force anyone to fight him. I am suggesting he do the same thing at 154 he did at 160, position himself as the #1 contender to the lineal title by beating the lineal champions #1 contender. no more, no less.

I responded to NE, and you came along sniffing my sack like jr gong. I gave you a reasonable response, and like the b*tch in heat you are, you keep sniffing and panting and drooling. So I am politely responding to you when I really should slap you on the nose with a newspaper.

There is no need for you to respond anymore. I'm sure Tunney or US dirk killer, or another poster wouldn't mind your schnozz and hot breath by their sack. I though am out of beggin strips and can't stand the smell of your breath.

This right here. IMHO, boxing NEEDS a commissioner. Teddy atlas gets my vote.

I LOVE TEDDY,VERY INSIGHTFUL/CRAZIER THEN HELL!-but he's got balls!-btw who's the guy in your pic holding the flag?

HUGE GGG fan, and not really a Floyd fan (although I appreciate his unique skill set), but Floyd shouldn't have to fight GGG.

I mean, it'd be great if he did...

Maybe if GGG has been campaigning at 154, where Floyd holds a belt; to my knowledge, GGG has fought at 160 his entire professional career.


I think if GGG could comfortably make 154, he would be campaigning there.

I do think GGG could make 154, but not very comfortably. He's probably about the same size as Canelo naturally - and Canelo struggles to make 154.


I also don't think GGG should have to go to 168 and fight Ward in his first fight at that weight. So GGG isn't ducking Ward, and Floyd's not ducking GGG.

[doninlouisiana]

floyd is way to small to fight a full fledged 160 lbr. Why doesn't GGG just move up to 168 lbs huh?

He probably will just because he has so much trouble getting good opponents at 160. And just to be clear here, Golovkin is a small MW, and why not Ward come down to 160 and fight Gennady? Ward request guys at LHW to come down to him at 168? (Edwin Rodríguez & Chad Dawson) What is the difference?
