Hell No!

First off no way does Pacman have more power than GGG.

GGG is a natural Middle weight and could fight all the way up to light heavy weight.

Floyd and Pacman are a natural lightweights who moved up to welterweight. Floyd is better pound for pound but the size, power, and strength would be too much.

You always mention the Olympics in your arguments but curling is in the Olympics and football isn't.

You can't duck people in the UFC since it is a real sport you have to fight who they tell you to fight.


Im just a casual fan of both. I didn't watch the Mayweather fight because I refuse to give that man a dime because he's a piece of shite.

With that said, I watched GGG last night to see what the fuss was about. That guy is ridiculous aggresive. if every fight was like that, even the UFC, I'd watch it every week. Let's not pretend that there aren't boring fights in the UFC. I've seen quite a few where the fans did nothing but boo.

Im.going to keep up with Golovkin from here on out. Dude is an animal and boxes like it should be. I was thoroughly entertained last night.

A heavy hitter doesn't have to always hit someone flush. That guy was out on his feet, you could see it in his eyes

That's what I love about Trip G. Pure aggression, and he welcomes it coming from his opponent. He relishes getting hit. Pretty sure he's proven that he's got a jaw of pure steel and is able to absorb even the hardest hits.

Him vs. Mayweather would come down to GGG cutting down the ring, cornering Money and unleashing blows, half of which would be blocked.

One thing I know for sure is this...GGG would absorb every counter, jab, and overhand right from money, while countering with a power shot of his own. It'd be a great fight.

Then again, u could watch Canelo's last fight and wonder how the hell his aggressiveness was nullified by Floyd's defensive prowess.

There's not a bigger Pac fan alive but there's no way in hell his power comes close to GGG. What made Manny so formidable was his combination of speed and power.

Oh, and the PBF lovers out there; GGG already threw it out there that he'd love to fight Floyd at 154. Crickets from the Money camp.

Oh, and kudos to Chocolatito. That was an entertaining fight to watch and will definitely be keeping up with him.

GGG vs Cotto should be a really good fight. Power vs Power.

Hell of a chin on Golovkin. Monroe hit him with some solid shots to the head for the last couple of rounds and he just shrugged them off

though to be fair Monroe isn't going to knock anyone out

He probably cuts from 180 or weighs 180 prior to training for a fight. He weighed 170 last night after weigh ins.

That's weight class.

Mayweather probably weighs 160 in between fight and probably weighs 155 the night of the fight

GGG is a better boxer and has more power than Pac. Pac doesn't even have more power than Maidana.

Let me guess. You must think Cain Velasquez is more popular than Saul Alvarez in Mexico?
