Would Floyd be the GOAT?

[IMDAZED]

unfortunately his time in germany was virtually wasted, but his resume is solid since he landed in the states. he's wiped out everyone in his division that was willing to face him. but as his profile rises his level of opposition does too. it's clear that he's the goods, hence contemporaneous titlists like sturm, martinez and cotto ducked him like the plague. alvarez may have time on his side, but i doubt he will end up as the more fondly remembered fighter when all's said and done - especially considering that in 2016 he's either gonna get his lights put out by ggg or be forced to rid**** bowe his brand new belt

He's yet to beat a top flight fighter. I think that's the issue people have with his resume.

game over......

How the hell is that game over?

It's completely illogical to compare Golovkin's resume to Mayweather's.

When you look at Floyds resume, historians will note that Floyd rarely took risks. He tried to get things in his favour, just to make sure of a win. Keeping his zero override anything.

So beating GGG at middleweight would be deemed a loseable fight for Floyd and Floyd would be the underdog even. If you can do things you aren't supposed to, that can only make him go up notches on the ATG, how much you cant say right now. Take the fight, and after you win, then we can discuss in further detail.

But Floyd seems to put limits on what he can do, that's the problem with Floyd.

Someone has it in their sig when you posted something like Floyd would be the GOAT if he beat shane, Hatton and Manny.

Given that he has, you should acknowledge him as the GOAT!

Supremely savvy post, well thought out and well said. Great job.

exactly this! You cannot give this man BALLS! HE is an insecure fighter and person. He's never been all that confident when it came to taking on the very best. It's a FACT. We're not making this up to hate on Floyd. Floyd did this to himself. He's maybe top 50 All-time. Check out my post on this thread if you haven't. Great post.

We all know the chance of Mayweather fighting Golovkin is about the same as him fighting Rousey. I'm not saying he is the GOAT but he's the closest boxer we have in this era. Beating one single fighter will not get him the recognition. The thing is, he's beaten most of his opponents with relative ease. The fact that he never ended up in some kind of Gatti/Ward fight some how diminish his accomplishments. Ironically, Golovkin Is getting that very recognition for defeating lesser opponents... Go figure.

Excuse me, where did I compare their resume's in this thread?

I said GGG has a good resume and has beaten some tough fighters, some who were undefeated and some who were world champions/challengers.

These are lies

1-His resume is far from good

2-He has never even faced a current champion

3-All his titles are vacant titles

[Larry the boss]

You can't fight nor beat guys who are scared to fight you

So how can you say his resume is good and he has fought champions?? those are lies man. Berto's resume ****s all over his and he is being called a cherry pick..Broner is laughed at but has done 10 times more then GGG
