Comments Thread For: Golovkin: I Can Box Like Mayweather, But That's Boring

"Ggg not black enough to be slick" Floyd fans actually are thinking this

Obviously you are the one thinking this sense nobody has brought this up but you. Not sure what this has to do with anything.

Move up 3 weight classes, fight guys 10-15 pounds bigger than you and prove it.

Ward, GGG and Rigo are 3 good fighters who refuse to strive to be great. That's why their begging lesser opponents for fights.

Keep crying.......LOL

Of what exactly? LOL

Why don't you take on challenges like Mayweather?

He wants to fight Mayweather, but it appears that the Mayweathers do not want Floyd to fight GGG, and I cannot blame them.

[Mr.Daddy]

GGG can't be talking about boring Mayweather because he has only fought bums so far. The day he fights his first opponent with a pulse he can start talking.

GGG cannot force the opposition into the ring (Cotto, Canelo, and any other reluctant fighters). Time will tell, but I believe that GGG beats anybody from 154 up through 168. Anybody.

Love the argument that GGG isnt great bc he doesn't move up in weight. Go tell Marvin Hagler that. Lol

Do some research of the history of the Super MW division then think about what you said.

what the fcuk are you even talking about?

By your logic, Hagler should have jumped up to light heavy, 15lbs north, cos floyd did it doe.

You guys just cant accept, some fighters styles, and body types, make it advisable for them to stay at a certain weight. It doesnt make anyone a better or worse fighter, its just the way it is.


Floyd was a 5''8 130lber, 72'' reach. Yes he's never rehyrated much and always walks at close to his fighting weight thru constant training, but even so it was natural for Floyd to fill out to a 135 and 140lber. He had the dimensions to do so. 147 and 154 were out of his natural range though, but at this stage of his career he would not be able to make 140 and fight at his best imo.

GGG is a 5''10 mw. He comes in at 170 odd on FN. You can see with his frame that he is not a big MW, he fits perfectly into that division, at 32 yo. Its ****** to say he has to fight Ward etc to prove he is great.

[Suckmedry]

And i dont think GGG means he can literally fight exactly like Floyd, you idiots.


He just means that with his skills and background, he could fight in a much cagier, safer kind of style. I agree though the comment was unnecessary.

1. Why is he calling out welterweights?
2. Why can Floyd move up to fight him but he can't move up to fight anybody? I didn't even mention that inactive fighters name.
3. Floyd was more aggressive fighting guys his size at the lower weights. It wasn't until he moved up when he had to start fighting smarter because he was taking on bigger guts with more power.

So my point is, let's see how exciting GGG is fighting at a 15 pound weight disadvantage like Floyd did vs Canelo.
