No way in hell is a man his age working out 8,9,10 hours a day to make 147 and walking around only 3lbs heavier when he's not fighting and doing warm up runs. It's just physically impossible. I'm not saying he's dropping 25 pounds for a fight but Floyd has to be physically walking around in the 160's and no he doesn't need to and should not unretire and fight golovkin.
    There is 0% chance - not .1 - but 0% chance of Floyd fighting GGG. If he was going to fight a middleweight, he may've entertained fighting Martinez who was a smaller middleweight and also ranked in top 5 lb 4 lb for some time.
    Let's be real, Floyd didn't even fight Pac and Mosely until it was clear they were passed their prime.
    And I agree that Floyd does not walk around at 150. he actually won't allow the say day weigh-in - why is that - bc it'll show that he walks into the ring at a higher weight than he claims he walks around.
    Floyd is an ATG, no doubt. The whole TBE is marketing - and great marketing at that. But, especially more recently, Floyd's fights have went from devoid of action to downright dreadful to watch. I can appreciate great boxing, but the constant clinching and grabbing - which was allowed by Kenny Bayless - was difficult to watch or even illegal. It's no coincidence that Floyd's toughest fight by far over the past few yrs was the only one not refereed by Bayless. After that 1st fight with Maidana, you can be sure Haymon made sure that only Bayless would ref his fights going forward. I guarantee if Floyd comes back that bayless refs the fight. I wish I could place a bet on that

      Yeah, because Winks did a great job of not letting Maidana rabbit punch all night and commit various other fouls.

        Yeah, because, you know, Floyd is Benjamin Button and ages backwards. Even when he is the older fighter, he just sits and wait for one guy to get older. A bias perspective is bich move, for it takes two to make a fight, so by saying Floyd didn't fight so and so is to distort one's view as to think it was Floyd's fault. Perhaps he shares the blame, but being around, there's no way Mosley and Pac didn't share the blame for the fights happening when they did.

          The last time he fought at 154 he was 18 or 19 years old. He's 34. I think it's pretty ****ing easy to say he can't make 154 without absolutely killing himself (and even that I'd doubt).

                I don't think GGG would be comfortable at the weight, he might be able to do it once, but he obviously isn't willing to do it regularly. . . the fact he's never tried to do it is reason enough to believe.

                    Where do you pull your 97k from? From "gay online bloggers"?

                    Or are your reading and comprehension skills as good as your idols?

                    Promoter Tom Loeffler calls Golovkin's pay-per-view show headlined by a title fight with David Lemieux a success based on the pay-per-view numbers and a sold-out Madison Square Garden.


                    It sold 150k. Not bad for a first PPV.

                    Cotto sold 60k on his first PPV.

                    Keep spreading lies and making a fool out of yourself.

                      Why would i argue with someone like you? You can't spell, have no arguments and you are intellectually still in stone age.

                      Would be the same if Kovalev beats up Roger Mayweather.
