    I think he just meant his style could be that of a boxer, like Mayweather, not that he could box just as good or identical to Mayweather, and that he chooses to be a more aggressive fighter because that's what he likes, that's what the fans like.

        But we HAVE to have a thread over this, so let's pretend GGG was saying he's as good of a boxer as Mayweather. Even though he didn't say that.
        Well when you speak like the incredible Hulk things get lost in translation. Either way. Look at how far Mayweathers "boring" style got him. I mean he only gets millions of people to pay 50-100 bucks to watch him fight.

        GGG needs to keep Floyds name out of his mouth.

          You need to take Floyd's salty nuts out of YOUR mouth.

            The reason Floyd is so popular isn't because of his style of fighting, it's everything else, otherwise Mayweather would be Andre Ward.

            GGG needs to keep Floyds name out of his mouth.
            Why? What's going to happen if he keeps Floyd's name in his mouth, is Floyd going to fight him and make him shut up?

Has Golovkin taken the risks floyd has on his careerr? Absolutely ****ing not. Floyd didn't sit around waiting for DLH to fight him. He made it happen. Golovkin fans are totally ok with him fighting 3x a year, 2 of those fights against c level guys, while he waits to beat up on a bloated ww. That's taking a challenge? Well I guess so. For all the crap floyd gets, it's hilarious to hear the hypocrisy. Floyd must move up to challenge himself against Golovkin but Golovkin is allowed to sit and wait for mega paydays. Makes sense.
              These girls see through fanboy Goggles. I think highly of GGGs skills and abilities and want to see him fighting the best on PPV and fulfilling his potential. These dudes are happy with him slaughtering 1 ranked fringe contender per year combined with 2-3 stay busy fights.

              Great fighters like Floyd, Pac, Chavez, Sweet Pea, Leonard, Duran, Robinson and Armstrong are where they are because they took risks. Since GGG appears to be the next one headed towards greatness I want to see him take risks. Unfortunately his fan boys don't have as much confidence in his abilities as I do.

                    The TMT bizniz experts don't know how it'd be a good bizniz move for GGG to fight Mayweather?

                    I am shocked!

                      GGG used to be a counter-puncher when he was in Germany, before he started training with Abel Sanchez. Folks who downplay GGG's skill as that of some basic come forward brawler clearly haven't watched enough of him.
