My problem with GGG vs Mayweather
Collapse

Floyd is the one of greatest boxers of the sport and a definite great but a legend is someone who goes up in weight to fight the middleweight monsters even though the odds are against them. Ray Robinson, Ray Leonard etc or fight 3 champions in the same month, instead of waiting 6 years to hit, run n hold against a beaten up featherweightFloyd is a legend, and better in every aspect. GGG has never been in a fight. He destroys undermatched foes with one shot and they lay on the ground and shake it out.
Him sucking so much, he doesnt deserve an easy victory like that over a Legend who carried the sport. Its insulting.Comment

It took SRL 5 yrs to run around the ring from Hagler and he runs more than Floyd lol He just throws combinations. Mayweather didnt run and hold Pacman. He kept him in front of him even when he fought going backwards, and he held Marcos way more. You all just made up lies about running and hugging after the fight lolFloyd is the one of greatest boxers of the sport and a definite great but a legend is someone who goes up in weight to fight the middleweight monsters even though the odds are against them. Ray Robinson, Ray Leonard etc or fight 3 champions in the same month, instead of waiting 6 years to hit, run n hold against a beaten up featherweight
SRL fought at 147, while Floyd, is a non puncher, and has walked down guys who weighed up to 165lbs while he only weighed 150 and was 37yrs old while Nelo was 22.
This thread was about the fact that GGG is an unproven bum who sux. But he will beat Floyd easily. Not because he's the better fighter. But because of sheer size and power. He lands on Floyd's shoulder and Floyd lays down and starts shaking.
Not only that, but it would take GGG yrs to earn a fight with Floyd. Floyd is leaving the sport very soon.Comment

Talk about overrating and underrating fighters...JesusFirst off I wanna say that I think GGG would destroy Floyd. Too big, strong, and can kill him with a grazing shot.
I think that if they were to fight, GGG would land on Floyd's bicep, and Floyd would collapse and start shaking n shiet like he's having a seizure.
An unproven, slow azz, bumazz fighter like him, does not deserve an easy 3rnd victory over one of the greatest legends of this sport. GGG has decent skills, but compared to Floyd he is trash.
And its almost an insult that a fighter of his caliber, and weak resume, gets THAT easy of a victory over Floyd who carried the sport for so long. Its a major insult.
If Khan, Pac, or any other fighter were to beat Floyd they would have to be the better fighter that night. Not just a strong big guy who wins simply because of his size and power. Basically a technicality. I would want to see GGG beat 30 world class fighters before I see him walk away with a victory this easy.Comment

GGG is unproven but that power is real. Floyd is so much smaller than him, he wont lose due to being the seceond best man that night. But lost simply because of size disadvantage.
If you remember the Canelo fight, pay attention close. Floyd was walking Canelo down the entire fight. In some of the rounds Canelo would land a body shot and Floyd would walk threw it. But if you look close, you can KIND of see him reaction to the power. Even after the fight he was sore from a single low blow shot on the leg.
If Floyd can feel Canelo's shots. Albeit, not enough to lose the fight, but when GGG lands Floyd would be waaaay too small to take the shots. Thats a 6 rnd fight at the most just because of the size and freakish power advantage of GGG.
When put into perspective, Floyd's victories over men who outweigh hi by 15lbs is VERY impressive. GGG is not the guy for that type of stuff imoComment

Opinions on this match up range from "Floyd does a master class on him" to "GGG puts him in a coma when they touch gloves." Funny stuff. The reality is that we have no clue what GGG would look like at 154 and Floyd shows no interest at fighting at that weight ever again. So it's a moot point.Comment

Believe that if you want too.
Floyd chin stood up everytime it was ever touch cleanly.
at 154 ggg will be even slower due to the weight loss.
Floyd will box golovkin ears off at 154.
now 160 is a different story.Last edited by bluebeam; 08-21-2015, 09:20 PM.Comment

He may be slower but Floyd will still have to eat a few shots here and their. Floyd has severe confidence in his ability to stand in front of you without getting touched. Haters like to pretend that he is safety first. Thats not how his mind works. He stands in front of everyone with confidence and no one is treated differently.
That would cost him imoComment
