As far as the fight goes, how about a catch weight of 157?
At this point in Floyd's career, it would be ridiculous. He's been on a steady decline for the last few years and just doesn't have the legs to carry him to a win. Jumping up to fight a killer two weight classes above you in a move for a young man, not a guy on the way out.

I don't think a catch weight on 157 would do much to favour Floyd. His only chance would be if GGG has a really hard cut to 154 and comes in flat (like a Ward/Dawson scenario).

Floyd's going to look for a couple of respectable but "safer" fights and try to get out undefeated at this point. Maybe a big rematch with Cotto for the MW title.
