Comments Thread For: Mayweather Sr: Floyd Probably Beats Gennady Golovkin

[Foreign Soil]

Chad Dawson said he could make 168, yet you're one of the main guys that said Ward drained Dawson despite it being Dawson's decision to go down in weight. To this day you've given Ward no credit for beating the consensus #1 LHW in the world at the time :/

You also call me a fantasy fight fan when I don't even want this fight to happen. I've seen you in Ward-GGG threads, and know you have 0 objectivity when it comes to potential opponents of your favorite fighters. You won't give Floyd credit for this fight (if by some miracle it happens), and you're gonna keep saying Ward needs to fight Kovalev (and not GGG), so spare me your BS

What an entire load of crap.

Canelo said he could make 150, it was made at 152. Were there excuses??

Floyd would beat Canelo at 154. He beat a drained Canelo but it makes no difference, Canelo would never beat Floyd.

Where's the excuse?

Sad. You gobble up anything Ward says and completely excuse it, as expected. He doesn't even need to move up, cos he automatically beats Kovalev, but you expect GGG to move up, right? Why should GGG move up? Since he automatically beats Ward in his own mind as well. Kovalev beats Ward in his mind as well, so he doesn't need to fight Ward either.

Yup, Team GGG shamelessly promoting him as the boogeyman from 154-168 is OK. He doesn't need to move up, even though he says all the guys an entire weight class above him are scared of him. Likewise, Andre Ward needs to move up, even though he's called out no one higher in weight than him, has not stated that anyone heavier than him is afraid of him, and hasn't stated the intention to move up in weight in over 4 years.

I didn't even have to dig hard for that quote. Just shows how hard you BS on this site :/

And look what you do. Obviously you fit in the "Ward beats Kovalev, Floyd beats GGG but neither of them have to actually fight them to prove it" group.

And here you are, still trying to put words in my mouth because you have no actual argument. When did Floyd say he was fighting GGG? When did Ward say he was fighting Kovalev? When did I say that Floyd/Ward would beat GGG/Kovalev? Why do you keep insisting that I'm a fantasy fight guy when all YOU bring up are fantasy fights? Seriously, can you present an actual argument for a change, and stop with the BS?

Anyone who's been on this site long enough knows you're a GGG/Kova/Loma stan, and you're pretty unapologetic about it :/

I remember that Sergio Martinez called Floyd out (at 154) back in 2011 and in 2012 as well (right after the Chavez Jr fight, when he was already shot)...

... "stop fighting kids and fight a man...", Sergio said back in Aug. 2011, after Floyd fought Ortiz...

Floyd and his team said Martinez was too big for him...

Lol it's not my fault you're a hypocrite who'd rather try to pull quotes from other threads than to discuss the subject at hand for fear of being labeled. I understand though, being a Floyd fan has been a pretty embarrassing experience for quite a while.

If Floyd fans think he beats GGG with ease, then the fight should be on the table. No question about it.

Yes, khan, GGG and Pac rematch. Wonderful.

But we don't know if Floyd can beat Pac though.

If I were solely a Floyd fan, this would be acceptable, but since my love for the sport is unconditional and not agenda-based, your BS (as usual) doesn't fly.

That you're attempting to say a fight is viable because of what a fighter's fans think will happen shows what type of person you are. I know a lot of people that say that Bruce Lee would have beaten a prime Mike Tyson, even though Lee himself admitted that taking on such a challenge would be borderline suicide. See the flaw in your logic?

At this point, I'm not even inclined to take you seriously, like all the other times you've ever bothered to reply to one of my posts with your garbage. I'm just gonna ignore you since you can't come up with actual arguments, and would rather try to insist that I just like certain fighters (aka you lol)

Floyd wins this fight by a wide UD. Floyd has the best defensive skills in the sport, so it's extremely unlikely a weight-drained GGG could pull off a KO with his slower punches which Floyd would easily block/dodge/counter and flat-footed footwork which Floyd would run circles around. And if GGG can't manage an unlikely KO, then Floyd wins easily by a wide UD. It would just be another Floyd-Canelo fight all over again.

But while Floyd most likely wins by a wide UD, a GGG fight could pose a long-term risk to Floyd's health. If Floyd was younger, in his prime, then it wouldn't be an issue. But at 38, there's a possibility those hard punches from a much bigger opponent could pose a health risk to Floyd in the long term. There's a reason why weight classes exist. It's a ridiculous fantasy fight to begin with.

For his last fight(s), Floyd should stick to opponents from his own natural WW weight class, like Khan, Thurman, Brook, or even Pac again. And if GGG wants to fight opponents from a different weight class, then he could face off against Canelo just below him or Andre Ward just above him.
