ggg will always have the ward question just like mayweather has always had a pac question theres no way around it

Marco Antonio Rubio is not even a gauge for measurement, beating him means nothing in boxing.

Golovkin's year would be when he unify all the titles and be the undisputed middleweight champion of the world but unfortunatlely he can't cos all the fighters or champions wouldn't want to fight him.

Especially the duck Quillen who give up his belt. Quackllen quack quack...

Floyd and Manny both fight at the same weight, but yeah, Ward seems to be the guy with by far the best chance of derailing the GGG juggernaut if (or more likely, when, given the relative dearth of big fights @160) Golovkin moves up to 168.

Ward - GGG will happen but don't expect it this year.

I know that, he might be fighting Lee for the belt he gave up. Im sure if has to fight ggg he will give up his belt as well if he is a champ.

Except the two situations are completely different. Even talking about a "Ward question" regarding GGG is utterly unfair in many ways.

1) The Pac fight was there for the taking a couple of times over the years. Ward, on the other hand, kept calling GGG out when he was involved in a promotional dispute and wasn't even available to fight. He was simply trying to keep himself relevant by making it look like GGG was ducking him.

2) Pac would have been (and still would be) a career high payday for Floyd. Given Ward's ridiculously inflated sense of his own financial worth, GGG wouldn't make much vs Ward. Ward would want PPV level money for the fight despite the fact that neither he nor GGG is a PPV level draw.

3) Oh, and the minor detail that Ward is much bigger than GGG, whereas Pac is actually a little smaller than Floyd.

ward will always have the kovalev question theres no way around it. why is he trying to fight a tune up and ducking kovalev?

[Redd Foxx]

You should care less about Golovkin's "live opponents" and care more about your boy Wilder "live opponents" -- Wilder is the big champ, not that siberian bloke...

WTF are you on about? I've not made any claims about being a Wilder fan. Freaky insecure Gilovkin parasites need to come up for air. What does wilder have todo with any of this?

I don't think this is true. Ward is not a huge super middleweight. He is 4 cm taller than GGG, which is the same height difference that exists between Floyd and Manny. I bet Ward is same size as Martin Murray on fight night.
