Can't blame GGG for wanting a career payday with Mayweather. He's probably going to have to fight Cotto or Canelo first though. Preferably at 154, so we can see what he looks like at that weight.
Sure seems to be a lot of people wanting Floyd to fight Cotto before someone like GGG takes away his linear MW championship, but petrified at the thought of a GGG/Floyd match up.
Floyd is already a great fighter. I'm not sure cherry picking a MW belt from someone he already beat decisively (Cotto) will ultimately make him that much greater. On the other hand GGG is far too much risk, too little reward at this stage. By the time the reward is high enough, Mayweather will be too old to beat him. Shame really, that would be an exciting fight.
