    Remember when Mayweather said triple G would be "easy work"

    He was asked about triple G and he just shrugged and said he'd be easy work. Was he telling the truth?

    I believe so, GGG wouldnt be able to land a clean shot on Mayweather for nothing.

      It's his opinion. If you ask any fighter, they will say no one can beat them (even after multiple losses like Khan )

      After watching how Nelo reduced GGG to a 1 armed jabbing machine, May would have done it better. And GGG fans wouldn't be able to cry about GGG being so old !

      It's their only defense

        Style wise it would be easy work for him with the defence but ggg's durability and power and size over him make him very dangerous in the later rounds if you start to slow down and don't have the offense to make him weary of counters ggg doesn't have a margarito type mental toughness to just eat every thing you throw at him and keep going forward he switches to spamming jabs at you

          Hell no. GGG would crush him like a little light punching bug. Look how much trouble he had beating welterweight Maidana who isn't a tenth as good or big or hard punching as GGG. Mayweather couldn't hurt GGG if he wore brass knuckles. GGG would slaughter him. GGG offered to go to 154 to fight Mayweather for those belts he never defended and Mayweather said no thanks. I guess he didn't think it was easy work.

            Mayweather was asked by GGG to fight him at 154 but Mayweather refused. If Mayweather had the balls to fight him GGG would chew the rather light punching old welterweight up and spit out the pieces. Mayweather beat the baby Canelo at a 152 pound catchweight, Today's Mayweather wouldn't last 4 rounds with Middleweights GGG or Canelo. Mayweather only takes fights he is sure he will win and that;s why he never fought GGG years ago when he challenged Mayweather to fight him for his 154 pound belts. LOL.

                  Depends what age Floyd would've fought him at. Everyone has a threshold and a Golovkin near prime would have landed hard enough to make Floyd fight like we've never seen.
