Should Floyd Mayweather have moved up to middleweight and fought Golovkin?

[The Hammer]

Floyd did enough in his career. Get over it he's retired now. Just enjoy Golovkin, Crawford, Ward, Rigo, Fury and all the other top talents on the block.

Floyd never took any risks in his entire career.

Everyone should make all the concessions for GGG but he should never have to make any himself.

Everyone come to Golovkin, regardless if you're moving up or down, because he should remain at 160 forever to ensure that his fans don't get any more butthurt than they already are.

Did GGG duck Mayweather at 147? All GGG fans say Brook was bigger than GGG and he is a welterweight so I guess that means GGG can make welterweight too since they are the same size. Am I right?

GGG offered to come down in weight. So Floyd could have fought him at 154.

While it would've been awesome if he did, it wasn't necessary for him to do so.

Roberto Duran moved from bantamweight and won a title at middleweight without a catch weight.

Duran was smaller than Floyd, shorter in height with a shorter reach.

Floyd isn't ring warrior like Duran. He never took a risk in his whole career.

Let's compare the number of times Floyd has moved up to the number of times GGG moved up.

GGG isn't a ring warrior like Duran either.

[The Hammer]

Let's compare the number of times Floyd has moved up

Floyd has only fought in TWO or the original divisions, lightweight and welterweight.

Billy Conn fought in FIVE (lightweight, welterweight, middleweight, light heavyweight, heavyweight).

Duran fought in FIVE. Pacquaio fought in FIVE.

Floyd only moved up because he outgrew the weight division and couldn't make it any more. He couldn't make the catchweight for JMM of 145.

Floyd never was much of a ring warrior.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!

[Doctor_Tenma]

A much bigger Brook got bum rushed, why in the heck would you want Mayweather, nearing 40, to move up?

[Johnwoo8686]

Floyd has fought in 5 divisions while GGG has only fought in one. But Floyd needs to move up again and not Golovkin? I don't hear any legend of the sport defending Golovkin now. Not Hopkins, not Roy Jones, not Floyd and even other active fighters and trainers are making a mockery of him. He's 34 years of age and still waiting on one of these smaller guys to move up and fight him.
