    Lol please

    If Floyd faced the equivalent of Danny Jacobs in any division then that fighter wouldn't be faster or longer..... it's not Mayweather's fault that Golovkin is not athletic and doesn't have a very long reach. Jacobs is not even that athletic, he just happens to be more athletic than Golovkin.

    Floyd faced many guys that were bigger punchers than him, when was the last time Golovkin did that???

    Exactly!! see the point, is it Golovkin's fault that Floyd isn't a hard puncher??

      There's plenty of evidence. Skips ibf weigh in (one can presume he was over 10lb's here already), refuses to get on fight night scales. But his team tells the media they he was 180lb's supposedly.

      It's reminiscent of Mayweather alright, refuse the fight night weight, but announce your weight verbally to the world. It's weird but I could care less. Unofficial fight night weights aren't very trustworthy though, one guy could weigh in clothed and another in his boxers and you'd think the clothed guy was bigger in the ring .

        Punching power is different, Jacob's is sharper, Lemule's is heavier. Golovkin is the most accurate.

          Don't dance around the point, no one would consider Jacobs a harder puncher than Golovkin. If they have to describe your power as "sharp" then you're probably not that big a puncher. I never heard anybody say Julian Jackson had sharp power or Mike Tyson had sharp power. I've heard them say Pacquaio had sharp power though.

          What is the evidence of Lemieux being a harder puncher than Golovkin? The Stevens KO? ..... but why couldn't he finish N'Dam or Rubio? (better fighters) Why has he never stopped a top 10 opponent.

            You do not know what evidence means then. There's no evidence of Jacobs weight vs GGG. It's called speculation. If this was a lawsuit attempt, your case would be thrown out.

            Mayweather regularly weighed 148-150lbs. In his last fights of his career, he weighed 148lbs vs Maidana according to unofficial weigh ins. You guys will not believe it even if it's shown to you. Whether Jacobs says he was 180lbs or HBO shows he was 180lbs, you won't believe it, you will say there's a conspiracy to cover it up and he was really 190-200lbs.

            For that reason these discussions really don't get anywhere. Whether the facts are presented or not, you will still speculate using your imagination.

              Because he's not as good at getting his punches to the target? Pretty simple stuff.

                What did he sacrifice a belt for? Just didn't feel like getting up that morning? With all them butterflies and anxiety bursting?

                We aren't trying to determine his weight, the point here is whether or not he was heavier. And the facts indicate that he was.

                  You've been here long enough. What is the possibility of alts stirring consistent debate on NSB for the sake of site revenue and traffic? I get a rouse out of to shine objectivity. It is possible that many who play the fool are actually objective. It's just their job to stir site traffic. In all NSB is a fun playground

                  I'Ve heard places like reddit control censorship. never had a chance to be there because I hate the interface in general. I don'T know if there's bias there either

                    some fans here make it worse than it is, I said before the fight. That no show at the IBF second weigh in, would not be a factor is Danny would have won. He didnt win, So stop complaining, Was a great fight.

                      No not that simple, he dropped N'Dam 4 times, he got his punches to the target enough times... if the power was really that good then N'Dam would have stayed down.

                      Go watch the Rubio fight, Lemieux landed a hell of a lot on Rubio, a lot more than Golovkin did yet he never hurt him nearly as much. Who's that journeyman Rios guy he went the distance with?? .... Are you telling me he didn't find the target enough on that guy???..... Lemieux's record of power is built on subpar opposition, Stevens is the best guy he's ever stopped, let that fact sink in.
