    Floyd will avoid triple GGG. he weight draine a green canelo.

    TBE my @ss i say.
    So you want Floyd to fight GGG, but you do realize that if they did fight it would be at 154. So GGG would be "weight drained" as well. My point is, if your crying about Canelo being weight drained then don't ask for a Floyd/GGG fight because GGG would have to cut a lot of weight too. Also, Canelo's team are the ones who offered the fight at 152, Floyd didn't "weight drain" him.

      Canelo is 5 ft 9, GGG is 5 ft 11, it's not only about weight, it's about weight, height, frame and natural size! Pacquiao weighed more on fight night than Floyd but it was clear that Floyd was the bigger man, Pacquiao has the frame and the height of a 130-135 pounder, GGG is a full fledge Middleweight with the frame and height to go along with it, Floyd is perfect at 147 but he should be fighting at 140, but he's rich and he wants to eat whatever he wants so he fights at 147, the man never even made 154, the highest weight he made was 151 and he had to eat before the weigh in to make 151, if GGG willing to put his money where his mouth is though and come down all the way to 154, I have no problem with him fighting Floyd, but everybody that buys ppv should sign an agreement that says that they're not allowed to b1tch about GGG being drained if he gets outboxed.

If GGG could land a super fight against Floyd he would do it in a heartbeat.
          If that's the case what's stopping Golovkin from going to 154 to fight Canelo? If he wants that fight what's up with the refusal to do it for Canelo? If he can make it healthy and it's so easy. Hmmmm...

            GGG is 5' 10.5" and he weighs in at 159 the majority of times.
            Taking off 5 is doable for him.
            If Mayweather is the TBE why not just fight the middleweight champ at middleweight weights like the Real TBE did and beat him.
            Why? Because he's far from the best welter let alone the TBE, its ridiculous to even consider him that.
            The great welters stop him over and over.

              Which fight makes Golovkin the MW champ?

                GGG fights at 160 and never fought at 154

                  170 is a common fight night weight for a SWW: Trout 171, Canelo 172, Angulo 173+. Floyd is tiny among these guys however he's been holding a SWW belt for 3 years straight, lineal, unified 2x SWW champ. You'd expect a guy to be ready for a SWW sized opponent, even really dangerous one

                    But you just made a post that you would be ok with him coming down to 152 and not rehydrating past 160.

                      1-Cotto is the middleweight champ not GGG

                      2-The"real TBE" i guees you mean sugar ray robinson who was taller and a lot bigger then Floyd since he even went up to 175

                      3-WW=Floyds 4th division so yea the other "real" WW'S were alot bigger then him. so the fact that he has won every damn title at WW is amazing
