Comments Thread For: Mayweather Confident He Would School Golovkin in 'Easy' Fight

It's about skin color. Plain and simple.

Really? What was Hagler's skin color? He stayed at 160 his entire career and on one ever insisted he move up or down. He's an ATG.

[Shape up]

But when GGG said he can beat anyone from 154 to 168 yall didn't tell him to move up and fight Ward. It was oh he wants to unify it's all about unification. If Floyd not great why do you ask more of him than you do of GGG? Ask GGG to fight Ward then. Yall complained that Jacobs was too big for GGG and they're both middle weights.

Your missing the point, 1st show me where ggg has said he will beat anyone from 154-168, he has never said that, he said he can make the weight, that's it, it's Sanchez who has been shooting off his mouth, 2nd floyd is the one making comments how ggg would be an easy fight so I feel it should be floyd who has to back up what he says, how's that GGGs fault

Take it all in stride, lil" Floyd is NEVER fighting GGG or any other fighter who can box and punch.
He is going to fight a guy who has NEVER boxed!!!!
Seriously I've waited years for this guy to mature but he acts like a fool. The way he conducted himself at ringside in England was embarrassing.
When did you ever see a promoter shadow boxing and yelling instructions at a fighter?

Bank the fighter and promote, hire managers and trainers then stay home. It is NOT about you anymore, let your fighters learn about promo and stop stealing the lime light.
Your time is over!

The truth.

[ldcollins]

You know GGG said he could beat anyone from 154-168 stop it. How I'd that debatable. GGG needs to prove his word. He fights Kell Brook but he wouldn't fight Ward. He'll fight Floyd at 154 but not Canelo at 155? Floyd is a ATG he's proven himself. What has GGG proven other than he can knockout bums.

[ldcollins]

Floyd has several HOF fights on his resume but he needs to prove something at 40. Ask GGG who is 35 and hasn't beaten one great his entire career. Ask more of your favorite fighter.

Don't you think times change, this is the era of weight class jumping, winning multiple WTs, CWs and the importance of as little as a pound.

Boxing is evolving like everything else, its hard to believe you haven't noticed the trend, so you wanna go to eras that were nothing like today, but then you have only lived in one era so you wouldn't know the difference.

Fighters today need to dominate more than one weight division to gain full recognition and stand out from the majority as ATGs, this didn't matter in the old days because weight jumping wasn't near as common as it does today, in this era it means a lot.

[Chuckguy]

I can't disagree but if he gets hit with a shot like maidana hit him with then it would be Lights out. IMO Floyd doesn't need to fight ggg. Ggg is too big and Floyd is pushing it at 154 let alone 160.

[Chuckguy]

Floyd is asked a question, he answers it. What do people expect? What fighter would say another would beat him?

Exactly. Peeps around here act as if Floyd is going around shouting out I'll school him. Come on now

First off, I haven't lived in only one era, don't know what qualifies you as an authority on me, but you're wrong, nothing new there.

Second, fighters do not need to bounce around weight classes in order to establish their greatness. It helps, but if they are bouncing weight classes because they are ducking someone in the division they left behind, that doesn't help their legacy now, does it. Not to mention the weight bullies who drain themselves to make weight for a size advantage.

GGG will go down as an ATG if he defeats Canelo and unifies 160. If you weren't so biased for obvious reasons I'm sure you would agree.
