Does Floyd go the distance against GGG?

[swagman]

I could see it going 12. Dont underestimate someone who's been doing something their whole life and have proven to be the best at it. That said, I dont see him winning. but going all 12 yeah.

[Easy Work.]

GGG would have a punchers chance, he would be relying on his power. at 154 he gets outboxed. idk about 160

Golovkin got too much of a size and power advantage for Floyd to win this. But Floyd will go the distance, he will defend himself better than Murray did.

[Scipio2009]

Golovkin doesn't cut off the ring well enough to get to Floyd, especially if the fight is put on in a regulation size ring, let alone the heavyweight ring that Floyd likes to fight in.

Pepper with the jab, shoot his right hand, make Golovkin miss, and then go for a walk; rinse/repeat for half an hour.

Another Floyd ggg thread?

Smh

Even at 154, I would take GGG over Floyd. Which says a lot, because Floyd is the most skilled boxer of his time. But only an opponent with hurting power could defeat GGG, because otherwise GGG will walk through you and damage you. To beat him, you at least have to be able to hurt him...

Would be about a 20-25lb difference on fight night. Floyd 150lbs, Golovkin 170-175lbs. If Floyd survives 12 rounds, even if he loses, that would make GGG look absolutely garbage moreso than Floyd looking like a defensive genius to survive Golovkin's attack enough to last the distance. I don't think Mayweather lasts, the weight difference is just way too much.

They are technically a very small Junior Middleweight vs a Light heavyweight on fight night.

Floyd will drag GGG. He won't come in there healthy

I would say it's a small Jr. middle versus a super-middleweight. Which is what Floyd did essentially vs Oscar. Although admittedly, Golovkin is a more dangerous opponent.

I think a Cotto rematch at 160 would be more likely.
