I didn't have a pick. I've said a few times the Golovkin mega fans are crazy boneheads and the Canelo fans are sexually attracted to him. All aggressive about account bets when i think both guys are way too hyped...Comment

I'm not arguing ages plus Canelo and ggg both signed to fight each other because they obviously believe they can win what you and I think won't change their mindsComment

Personally I'm not a fan of Floyd after he became Money May. I can see why he won't fight G. G is much bigger. G is highly skilled and a devastating puncher. Im not ridiculing Floyd when I say I don't blame him and fighting G is asking too much. There is a limit to everything.Why does Floyd always have to duck everyone good? GGG vs Floyd for the lineal middleweight title, as well as all four belts, May next year, after GGG beats Canelo in September and Saunders in January, would be the biggest boxing match in history, bigger than Mayweather-Pacquiao, bigger than Mayweather-Mcgregor. GGG can't make 155 anymore but Floyd at this point is bulkier than he's ever been, and 159 would be a good weight. Or Floyd could really try to outshine SRL and SRR and just go to 160 to prove all the haters wrong for once and for all time.
But that is the fight. Why would they leave a 5 million PPV sales type of fight, and global fight, on the table? Floyd fights sell when people think he might lose. Against GGG, he would be the underdog for the first time, and he might not only lose, but he might get KTFO. 10 million people might pay to see that! It's also history at 160. It also compares favorably to what SRL did at the end of his career, legacy wise. It has everything for both GGG and Floyd, in terms of money AND legacy AND history. And GGG is just as well liked as Pacquiao, even more so now that Pacquiao's personality has become rather predictable and repetitive and he's past his prime.
GGG would be coming off the Canelo fight, making him a big star as well. And the hype of Floyd signing to fight a true KO puncher at a bigger weight would reverberate throughout the entire sports world. You might think the fight is big now, but wait until it's actually announced. They have no idea how big that fight will spread until they actually do it. It will take on a life of its own. Mayweather-Pacquiao was already marinated big before it was announced, and in fact it didn't really spread out from that point because boxing fans were actually warning people that Pacquiao was old, and it wouldn't be that great, but people still bought it based on what they hoped it would be.
This is a different animal. It might not be as well known now, but if they make that fight, boxing fans will actually be telling people to buy it. They will talking it up, not down. They will be telling everyone they know that this is the real fight of the century, the fight to end all fights, what Pacquiao-Mayweather should have been (minus the hand speed).
I just can't believe they would leave that much money on the table. That could be boxing's first ever billion dollar fight. That fight would be huge everywhere. GGG the biggest global boxing star if he beats Canelo vs Floyd the biggest American star. Best knockout fighter in boxing vs best defensive fighter. Floyd would still have the reach advantage like he always does. How can they not make that fight? I don't get it.Comment
