For several months, WBA/IBO/WBA-interim middleweight champion Gennady "GGG" Golovkin (32-0, 29KOs) has discussed the idea of moving down in weight to 154-pounds for a fight with Floyd Mayweather Jr. (47-0, 26KOs), who holds the WBC/WBA junior middleweight titles at the weight.
The boxer's manager, Max Hermann, says a fight with Mayweather is not realistic. It's just a fantasy dream for his boxer that will never come true. Golovkin is focused in unifying the division and wants the winner of the April fight between IBF middleweight champion Andy Lee and challenger Peter Quillin.
"He would love to fight the Lee-Quillin winner because he wants to unify the world titles. He's mandatory challenger for Miguel Cotto but I don't think that fight will happen soon. Floyd Mayweather is not a realistic option for Gennady - it's just a fantasy. It's beyond our scope of opponents because of a number of issues," Hermann told writer Nick Parkinson.
