Andre Ward: " Golovkin and Chavez are ducking me right now "

Ward should just sign with Al Haymon. He can fight bums for the rest of his career and make big money doing it. He obviously doesn't want to move up and fight Kovalev or any of the other LW even after clearing his division out. GGG is not ducking him, he's not done cleaning out 160. I don't see why Ward won't go to England in front of 80,000 fans and whoop Froch for big $$. He'd rather sell 5,000 in Oakland I guess. The guy is wasting his prime years doing nothing, it's a shame.

Why would they fight Ward when them facing Cotto is closer to being made? GGG has all the leverage, but it's Ward asking for the fight and GGG can bypass all he wants because he has many more options. Ward should be building his name to compete with Cotto, Chavez and Froch as GGG could face all three while Ward is commentating missing all those paydays (minus Cotto of course) GGG-Cotto is close to being made? That's news to me. I don't see why Cotto would fight GGG when he can get bigger paydays against Canelo (regardless of tonight's outcome) or Floyd rematch. GGG doesn't have many options at 160 after Geale.

I don't care who has a bigger following right now, I'm talking about the fight getting bigger. If GGG takes care of business against Geale and maybe one or two more top ranked middleweights, the GGG/Ward fight would be bigger than if they fought today. That's what GGG's promoter is probably banking on. Why would they fight Ward when them facing Cotto is closer to being made?

...BWHAHAHAHA!!!!! Ward is a big name or something? GGG has a much bigger following than Ward, has been much more active and is far more exciting to watch. GGG is fighting 3-4 times a year while Ward seems to fight every 3-4 years, there is no doubt who the bigger name is already.

He accuses Chavez's team of protecting him and not letting him fight the best, but Chavez is far from the best fighter Ward can fight. As far as the Golovkin situation, they're doing exactly what ...BWHAHAHAHA!!!!! Ward is a big name or something?

As far as the Golovkin situation, they're doing exactly what Ward did when he turned down Bute, they're waiting for the fight to get bigger as GGG's name gets bigger.

I'm sorry but if a fighter say " I will fight anyone" then you have to hold him by those words. He has been called out multiple times by Ward and Lara, yet there are crickets coming out from his side. All he has done is fought scrubs thus far. Golovkin is the number #1 ranked MW, fighting the #2 ranked MW. Yet somehow people still think he is ducking Lara and Ward, two guys not even in his weight class? The ignorance is strong with boxingscene.

I forgot GGG isn't held to Floyd, Broner, Ward, or you where I'm going. Haymon fighters never get the benefit of the doubt. GGG is Teflon. Umm... what? Golovkin is fighting Geale who is ranked 2nd, behind Golovkin. Floyd is fighting the #6 ranked WW for his JMW title at the WW limit. Broner ducked Mattyse and will now be fighting TBA, and Ward... has had 1 fight in 2 or 3 years. I still have no clue what you were trying to say but I figured I'd just throw that out there.

or he just signed a sh1t promotional contract and cant get a legit fight

You guys are fighting more than ward Actually, this is exactly the kind of fighting Ward likes these days. It only involves talking and never ends up in a boxing ring. http://ist2-2.filesor.com/pimpandhost.com/2/2/4/3/22438/1/T/1/Q/1T1Q2/ku-medium%20%285%29.gif

You guys are fighting more than ward

Golovkin and Junior would combine to win less than 4 rounds vs Ward. Very easy fights for him. yes, but we can't give him much credit for that if they never fight, can we?

Meh I'm getting a bit fed up with Ward. Huge fan, but his inactivity makes it hard.

I'm sorry but if a fighter say " I will fight anyone" then you have to hold him by those words. He has been called out multiple times by Ward and Lara, yet there are crickets coming out from his side. All he has done is fought scrubs thus far. September 2012, GGG "I'll fight anyone from 154-168" January 2013, Ward "GGG fight could be a big fight down the road" July 2013, GGG "My focus is on 160, I want unification fights" July 2014, Ward "GGG is ducking me"

It's been 8 months and he has no fights scheduled... That was November of 2013, it's mid July 2014. That's like 8 months ago. i'm almost positive that you edited your post from a "year and a half" to "a year."

"The promoter than I have right now in Bob Arum" Did Ward misspeak (meant the promoter Chavez has right now) or is saying he signed with Top Rank? I think he said that his promoter and Bob won't work with each other.

the hatred sustains us. For the record I don't hate Ward he's one of my personal favorites.

ward fought about half that long ago. mid november. it's good to know that you guys are actually watching boxing. That was November of 2013, it's mid July 2014. That's like 8 months ago.
