Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
Don't be fucking silly. How is it like saying he could beat Tyson?
In his prime, it is not inconceivable to suggest that Floyd probably would've beaten GGG. And Hagler and GGG are very different fighters.
You let your hatred of Floyd distort your opinion of him as a Boxer.
I think Floyd used to be a twat, but you have to respect his quality.
I'm not being a muppet. I'm a GGG fan and he's dominated the MW Division for some time now.
But there's no denying his opposition has been poor.
Floyd beat a lot of great fighters albeit at lower than MW, but GGG is not a giant MW in height or size.
I could just see GGG Walking Floyd down like he does and getting tagged every time. Yeah, he'd brush them off and they wouldn't hurt him, but he may get frustrated and not have a plan B. Not dissimilar to the Jacobs fight.
Like i said size wouldn't have come into it at all, easy win for Floyd due to Golovkins static head, Floyd would have beaten him with speed and boxing ability, whipping him on points.......... for the distance if necessary![]()
Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
If you base Floyd beating Golovkin on the Jacobs fight - a 6'1 quick middleweight with a reach advantage that fights nothing like Floyd - then equally you have to consider Floyd "losing" to Castilo.
So based on how easily a 5'7, "slow" lightweight was able to pressure Floyd then a 5'11 middleweight with a longer reach, fantastic jab, bone crunching power and a granite strong bonce would absolutely kill him.
Yeah.. I wonder why Floyd never attempted winning a middleweight title.![]()
3-Time SADDO PREDICTION COMP CHAMPION.
Jacobs ain't 6ft 1 and GGG is not 5ft 11. I don't care what the "Stats" say, we know they're bollocks.
Jacobs is about 6 foot and I know that's a lot taller than Floyd, but Floyd makes up for that with his defensive skills , reactions and counter punching.
GGG is about 5ft 9 I would say. No doubt Floyd wouldn't have felt the power anything like GGG possessed , but I do believe he could avoid that for 12 rounds.
Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
