Floyd Mayweather vs. Triple G 'Dream Fight' [WATCH]: Gennady Golovkin Challanges Boxer Weight Gain, Taunts Oscar De La Hoya 'Comeback'
Forget Manny Pacquiao - undeafeated boxing champ Floyd Mayweather should gain a few pounds and meet ultimate rival Gennady "Triple G" Golovkin in the ring!
The 33-year-old Kazakh boxer is currently the reigning WBA and IBO middleweight champion. He's won a total of 33 fights with a whopping 30 knockouts (20 of those being consecutive). Should Mayweather feel intimidated?
Golovkin thinks he'd be able to "crush" the Team Money hypeman if ever given the chance. In a recent interview with TMZ Hollywood Sports, Golovkin reveals that challenging Mayweather would be a "dream." How much would MstarsNews readers bet on that epic match-up?
Mayweather has competed in four different weight classes, but none the same as Triple G - Super Featherweight (130 lb), Lightweight (135 lb), Light Welterweight (140 lb), Welterweight (147 lb), and Light Middleweight (154 lb).
Golovkin's a beast - he'd even accept Oscar De La Hoya's taunt!
The 42-year-old "Golden Boy" is currently retired, but he's not intimated by Golovkin's crazy record (via TMZ):
"If I ever come back, and I think about it every day, I'll fight Triple G!"
And what does the 165-pound former Olympian think about that? Hey, it's not totally out of the question!
"Stranger things have happened," Golovkin's rep tells TMZ in an updated report. But did Hoya just spark a new Hollywood beef? Nah. Triple G actually finds the taunt "a show of respect."
Well, now Twitter's abuzz:
@Halleemhabbas_: "Triple G vs Mayweather would be the best fight ever... Mayweather would have to come up in weight though, but Triple G would kill him."
@_thisisX: "Hope Mayweather picks Triple G to fight."
@Yusvf_M: "...Sh*t is about to get real bruh."
@Midnight12Rockr: "Mayweather would never fight triple G... A true knockout artist."
@6number6: "#Mayweather would not last 2 rounds against Gennady 'Triple G' #Golovkin."
