Does Floyd have the balls to fight Golovkin @ 154?

If he was to bring GGG down to 150 or 152 how much backlash would he catch?

I don't see how Floyd benefits by going up to 154 again, 147 seems to be his more natural fighting weight - GGG coming down will come with a litany of excuses. Ideally, Alexander fights Brook for the IBF title and if Alexander wins he's matched up with Floyd in September as his "most dangerous opponent". Then Floyd negotiates a deal for his last fight, the 50th one - perhaps on network television. Get that advertising money. Then buy the rights to all of his fights a release a box set with all 50 fights

If I was Floyds best friend/advisor /w.e I would honestly tell him to drag GGG down to 154(which he said he would come don to, in order to face Floyd) and tell FLoyd to outbox and counter punch him all night.The fight would be rough but he would come out the victor without a doubt in my mind and it would shut alot of people up and cement his legacy...he might not go down as sam langford or henry armstrong but he would shut alot of people up.
Floyd should drag him to 147,or no fight
