Comments Thread For: Mayweather Sr: Golovkin is Too Damn Big For My Son!

UOTE=kafkod;16049180]GGG never called out Ward either. And why the fuck would he even think about moving up to 168 now, with bigger fights for better money in his own division?

Ward said he would fight Kovalev, and he's had a tune-up at LHW already. About time he either agrees to fight Krusher or puts his fans out of their misery by telling them it's never going to happen.[/QUOTE]I agree Ward should fight Kovalev or Stevenson because GGG does not want any of that at all! I really don't know what GGG will do after Lemieux? He's not getting Haymon fighters like Jacobs, Quillen, or Lara, and Canelo and Cotto are in no rush to fight him, unless he comes to 155. So what's left for GGG?

Ward won't fight Kovalev and Stevenson is probably out for him too because of the Roc/Haymon feud.

If GGG beats Lemieux the winner of Cotto/Canelo must fight him next, at 160, or vacate the title.

If they keep him waiting, Andy Lee's match with BJS has fallen through again and Lee has said he would fight GGG.

GGG/Lemieux looks like it's going to do well, so another unification battle, against Lee, maybe on pp4 also, would be a great way to stay busy till the WBC title fight gets made.

If GGG keeps winning, he could be the unified MW champ, and one of the biggest stars in boxing, by the end of next year. That would the time to move up for Ward, if Andre hasn't retired by then.

Once again, crazy old Mayweather Sr. is caught with his foot in his mouth by saying Golovkin is too big for his son but then goes on to say he couldn't beat his son anyways. If Golovkin wouldn't be able to hit Jr., why not put him in the fight? His reasoning makes no sense at all, especially considering Floyd wouldn't even give his weight on fight night against Berto. Surprise, surprise, it's ok for Floyd to have a weight advantage, just as long as none of his opponents do. If he doesn't want to fight at Junior Middleweight, which is what Golovkin is willing to go down to for a fight with Mayweather, then why the hell is he currently the holder of a world title at Junior Middleweight?
Presenting the possibility of a Mayweather/Golovkin match up is ridiculous anyways because Floyd would NEVER in a million years agree to face him. He just fought Andre Berto for Christ's sake! If you're not willing to face a Welterweight in the top 10, there's no way you're going to face the best at Middleweight.

i picture ur head exploding after writing this at the thought mayweather will never lose

Ali and Foreman were in the same division. Fail.

The point was Foreman was expected to kill Ali.

But dont let me stop you playing dumb. Carry on...

[Sweet_Science2]

Jim Lampley made a good point in that Roberto Duran at welterweight made the jump to middleweight to face Marvin Hagler who was destroying everybody in his path. Floyd will avoid this one. But this would be his biggest fight left.

Should ggg fight Stevenson or Kovalev next if he can't get Cotto or Canelo? Yeah I thought so!! If not is ggg ducking bigger guys like Ward!! Who wants to test that chain.

If you agree he should move up next because all three would EASILY beat and fight him. Call him a coward for not moving up! If he is not a coward for not facing those bigger guys please be quiet

marquez called out Floyd and wanted to go up in weight

True, JMM calls out Floyd, Floyd takes the call. GGG calls Floyd out, Floyd is engaged, the line is busy. JMM wanted to challenge himself, Floyd don't. That's why Floyd will never move up the ladder and seriously challenge the Durans, SRLs and Pacs of this world. Pac took on Margarito.Pac didn't quite like being hit by such a giant but he took the challenge, Floyd wont. The zero is too important for Floyd. That's why greatness wont be bestowed upon Floyd.

Obviously Sr. is right. GGG is too big for Floyd. Leveraging his solid skill set, GGG can use his power more successfully than Maidana or Canelo. It's a risky fight for Floyd. He would be the underdog, maybe the first time since he fought Corales. That said...

Exactly. Which is why this fight is vaporware. Floyd's not motivated by the challenge itself.

Floyd don't like to fight when he is underdog ie don't take risks, so will be punished accordingly when he retires. He will never crack top 20ATG. For over 100 years boxers have been taking risks bigger than Floyd ever has, and have been successful. Floyd hasn't had that many great opponents to fight he fought in quite a weak era. So he has been given a Godsend with GGG and an opportunity to really show the world what hes about. God gave Floyd GGG. The last chance saloon for Floyd.

Oh i definitely give him credit. Its was a good win and he was massively outsized, but you cant compare GGG to Margarito in terms of size.

If GGG fought the Marg who fought Pac you would see it clear as day.

Thenyou have to factor in where each guy is in his career (GGG prime, Mayweather past prime, Marg was past prime and Pac was prime) and i dont think its a fair comparison at all

Pac took a very risky fight with Margarito with potentially little credit. Floyd would get massive credit for taking a risk with GGG. So what excuse does Floyd have? How much credit does Floyd want when he retires. Its one thing calling yourself TBE. But wouldn't it be much nicer if people actually thought it as well.

GGG weighs 166lbs on fight night.

Meanwhile a small welterweight like Floid needs IV fluids more than 10x the allowed limit to rehydrate.

Don't forget that he also refuses to disclose his fight night weights as well.

[Sweet_Science2]

the GGG wives have no problem with their husband fighting a WW...but they'll throw lipstick and swing purses at anybody saying their husband is ducking Ward...it's crazy!!

Exactly lol... Ward and ggg or one class away from each other! But we all know what's up

[Eastcoast]

Don't forget that he also refuses to disclose his fight night weights as well.

So does Ward. There's only one rehydration weight for Ward (Dawson).

His last 2 fights his opponents were overweight and had to submit to rehydration limits but Ward's were never disclosed.

[spytactics]

So floyd can fight smaller fighters, pick on C class fighters but he can't take on a real challenge in Golovkin? GTFO
