Mayweather would never have fought GGG at 154 under any circumstances. No fuking way. He dad clearly said Floyd would never fight GGG at 154 or any weight. Floyd refused to go above 152 for the smaller, green and much less feared Canelo years earlier. GGG would have murdered him.

Floyd vs GGG in 2012? Idk about that. GGG wasn't even full on GGG then iirc. Sh^t people were still making Floyd vs Manny threads all day long back then. I think Merchant is waaaaaaay overrated but I don't see him ruining a fight that was never really on the table or coulda gotten on the table realistically back then.
