Floyd Mayweather Jr Next Fight & News: Uncle Explains Why Gennady Golvkin Won't Happen, 'Floyd Has No Business Fighting A Guy Like Golovkin'

"The thing is this, I do everything good, but my best attribute is I'm very very smart," says pound-for-pound boxer Floyd Mayweather, Jr. during an interview with Bad Left Hook when asked about rumored fight versus Kazakhstan's Gennady Golovkin.

Mayweather says he is way too smart for the Kazakh boxer after learning that he weighs more than 154 pounds, which is the catchweight limit making it impossible for a match, International Business Times reports.

"Floyd has no business fighting a guy like Golovkin. Not so much because he's great, but if he wants to fight Floyd, why doesn't he come down to 147 pounds? Not 154 pounds, come down to 147 pounds just like what Floyd actually fights at," Jeff, Mayweather's uncle, said in an interview with Jenna J on On The Ropes Boxing Radio.

After Floyd's win against Filipino Boxer Manny Pacquiao last May 2, boxing fans asked on who will beat Mayweather next, that was when the knockout, second best boxer in the world, as Business Insider puts it, came in. Golovkin is in the middleweight division, with speculations that unless he comes down to 147 pounds, he will not be able to fight Mayweather.

"Even with me being at my weight, I'm just too smart. You have guys out there who can punch with both hands, that go to the body good. The thing is this, I do everything good," Mayweather explains. Aside from their weight differences, Floyd also tells Boxingscene, "He is a solid puncher, but he is straight up and down, really no special effects. At least not to me." 

Mayweather holds the title of the most top-rate boxer in the Welterweight Division after beating Pacquiao after a 12-round fight that ended into a unanimous decision earlier this year. Mayweather owns 48 wins and 0 losses with 26 knockouts.

Golovkin, on the other hand, just recently gotten out of a word war with a potential next opponent, Andre Ward, who claimed that the Golovkin cannot last 12 rounds on a match with him on his weight division. "You can't come to my weight class and side-step me," Ward told Boxingscene in an interview. Golovkin's Coach Abel Sanchez responded via Business Insider, "Three years ago I said that nobody from 154 pounds to 168 pounds will go 12 rounds with Gennady, I say that now."

Golovkin holds 33 wins, zero losses, and 30 knockouts, adding up a recent victory against Willie Monroe, Jr. last May 16.

Yet, the Mayweather v. Golovkin match is yet to be hoped for.
