WBA super middleweight champion Andre Ward, and IBO/WBA middleweight champ Gennady 'GGG' Golovkin, have been trading harsh words on BoxingScene.com in the last few days.

On Monday, Golovkin took off the gloves and let his words fly after he was angered by some of Ward's statements.

Ward claims, in this video interview provided to BoxingScene.com, that last month he personally confronted Golovkin's promoter, Tom Loeffler, and told the head of K2 Promotions to "stop lying to the fans" with respect Golovkin's willingness to fight him.

According to Ward, Loeffler blamed all of the trash talk on Golovkin's trainer, Abel Sanchez.

Ward returns on Saturday night against Paul Smith at the Oracle Arena in Oakland, California.
