    He said his unbeaten record isn't that important as long as hes healthy? So is he worried fighting GGG he wont be healthy? BH is ok and he fought the equivalent of GGG in Kovalev.
    Do what before him? Floyd can't make 154 so why would he go to 160? Especially at 38? The only two 6 weight WORLD champions are manny and oscar. Manny didn't fight the best of opponents, and used a lot of catch-weights and some vacant titles and oscar A LOT of people thought he LOST to strum when he won a title at 160. So tell us WHY you REALLY want him to fight Golovkin?

Some people did the same thing with the Maidana fight when Khan really beat Maidana easy.

      Khan beat A|gieri much easier than Floyd beat Berto.. Just goes to drive home the point further that Floyd may well have been scared into retirement by Khan permanently.. Temporarily for sure, but it could be a permanent mental scar that Khan left on Floyd's psyche and it may cause him to stay in hiding for life.
      And then when floyd beats khan by UD/KO let me guess, khan hasn't done anything at 147 and so what if you stopped him, he's been stopped before. FOH

        There was enough controversy in the pac fight to warrant a rematch. Controversial on many levels. Whether it was Pacs shoulder, to IV fluids or some thing Pac won, with a bad shoulder. Or maybe Floyd would be upset that many didn't think the fight was that entertaining and try make it more entertaining next time. Take your pick of reasons really. Maybe you can add your own reason.
        "take your pick really" get out of here with those WEAK arguments. What does an IV have to do with floyd beating manny? Manny's shoulder injury what shoulder injury? Did you see one in the ring?

            Floyd had major problems with Maidana, you seriously think he's got a chance against Khan?

              Yes Floyd can make 154. Up to now he has only outgrown divisions, so four weight champ flatters him really.
              And being 38 is no excuse, he should have made a move earlier and try do it earlier in his career rather than wait. Especially with a man with aspirations of being the best ever.
              Floyd should eat more weight gain protein shakes or whatever, the same as Duran did and SRL when he fougth Lalonde or haggler.
              I want Floyd to be TBE and take a risk in his career and overcome adversity. That's the only way hes going to be above Pac.

                Gee your make some really dumb comments , 2 totally different styles of fighters , Floyd would make Khan look like he was trying to catch a ghost and pay dearly for every mistake he makes , at least Maidana can bum rush and make it look like he is doing good in a wrestling match , nobody can out box Mayweather you are such blind biased fool .

                  Last time Floyd fought a prime, slick, fast, fairly technical boxer was Judah back in 2006 and he got dropped in that fight and schooled for a few rounds. What chance has Floyd really got with Khan? He'll get dominated like Alexander did, beat to the punch every time. There's a reason he ducked him for this long..

                    Bhop and Kovalev were in the same weight class and they weigh roughly the same on fight night. The two situations aren't comparable at all.

                    And before you bring in Sugar Ray Leonard and Duran, you won't be able to fool us either with those names. Sugar Ray began his career at welterwieght, he was obviously much bigger than featherweight Floyd.

                    Duran began his career at featherweight just like Floyd, but a key detail that haters/critics always conveniently leave out when making the comparison is that may weather was nineteen when he turned pro and Duran was sixteen. In other words, Duran is also naturally much bigger than Floyd, who has never weighed above 151 even for his three junior middleweight title bouts both on weigh in and fight night.
