    THe best person on Floyds resume is Pac, but as we all know Pac is smaller than Floyd and coming off of a ko to JMM who fought Pac 4 times.

    Sure it is only one risky fight in Floyds career, but its a big risk if he fights GGG and he would get massive credit the likes hes never experienced before.
    ?????????? Floyd retired

        You'd think he'd be a lineal champion or unified with a dozen title defenses



        He is a good fighter but the hype level is ridiculous for what he has done so far


        Unify 160 and he is the real deal in my book......he is a good fighter but that shows me he is a great fighter
        Hagler didn't accomplish that much either on his first 10 years and he turned out to be great. Not saying GGG is great but he can change that.

                Because Ward wants him to bow to every demand of his and come up to 168lbs when he doesn't offer nearly as much cash as Froch/Chavez Jr would have?
                Its a two way street, Ward wants to be relevant and people argue GGG should fight harder opposition so meet at 164lbs and stop being a diva crying and make the fight and stop fooling the fans.

                  The is an old argument but I'm sure GGG stated he wanted to fight the best between 154-168, you don't suddenly hide when the p4p no.2 returns from hiatus. Ok the money was the key reason he'd have done 168 for Froch but IMO that is a much easier fight.

                    The guy who just quit last weekend had the exact sane type of hype

                      People like Golovkin are a dime a dozen, and I don't say that to be a prick. Valero was pretty much in the same position as was Victor Ortiz. What matters is whether or not the steamroller can flatten quality opponents.
