Why is Oscar hyping up Ward-GGG on twitter the last few days? He doesn't have a stake in either fighter. He even spoke about putting it on with a Canelo PPV (I wouldn't hold my breath on that one). Do you think Ward ends up with Golden Boy if he gets out of his Goossen contract?
Maybe he's a fan and knows this would be a big fight.
What's he saying anyways
^^^^ What I am thinking as well. Oscar is a fan of the sport. Not just the owner of GBP.
175 to 168, Please. He volunteered to do that. He was okay with it. Chad Dawson gained a whole bunch of it back.
I know he volunteered and a lot of people thought it was a terrible, career damaging move. Per his trainer, he left his chin at around 171. Oscar and Chris Byrd also volunteered to take their beatdowns below healthy weight
Career ending? Has Ward ended any careers, except for Dawson who set himself up for disaster by dropping all that weight? I guess Kessler's had eye issues after all the headbutts, like that?

Ward would be career ending for Golovkin at this stage.

Seriously. A month ago he was being all lovey-dovey with Arum and talking about how they're gonna make great fights.
What's happened since then? Not a single fight that's been co-promoted by both GB or TR.
If they were working together, Robert Guerrero vs Manny Pacquiao would have been made.
LMFAO at that dumb ass line up.
So GGG has to beat the biggest names in 3 different division befor earning a shot at Andre "I havent fought anyone worth a damn since I fought froch" ward?
GTFOH
Ward doesnt deserve a big fight, Ward has to get himself back in the converstation by winning some fights that even matter.
That's just ignorant. Golovkin needs those fights because he'll get clowned if he goes straight to Ward. That's the kind of thing that mentally ruins a fighter.
Go draft some more make believe sig pics. lol.
How much did ggg make in his last fight, previous ggg purses that have been revealed have him make around 500k, that's a bargain, ward would get around a million. On the last Floyd ppv, there were four guys making a million. Money wouldn't be an issue, I just don't see this fight happening nor do I want ward to get a big fight
No way man. Ggg just made 750k, and Ward 2m for a tuneup. Both would want a LOT more for the much riskier, much bigger fight. It'd be ridiculously expensive for an undercard
Wouldn't have enough money to put that on a undercard

he wants GGG up a weight class to protect his own star he know it will get forced and the gunger would get put to sleep if he fights cotto aand beats him
He is wanting GGG out of the Middleweight Division so Canelo can make a soft landing there against Cotto, without the pressure of fans wanting him to face GGG right after.
Spot on.
Canelo is his biggest moneymaker/draw putting him in a fight with Golovkin jeopardizes their plans at middleweight for Canelo.

It's definitely possible and I considered that but I've been following Oscar for a long time and he mentions fights he wants to see but he's a promoter first and it always includes his guys.
He been saying since the fight on Saturday that he wants to see GGG-Ward. His tweet that made me question it was him saying "Imagine Canelo vs Cotto and GGG vs Ward on the same card?! 5 de mayo! Would anybody pay to see that?"
That PPV is big on its own I don't see why he would want to add a fight that he would have to start splitting profits to other promoters.
It just strikes me as odd that he keeps mentioning a fight that his company has no part of. I'lll admit it's very possible I'm reading too much into it.
Oscar is doing it to divert attention from Golovkin vs Cotto. He wants Canelo vs Cotto.
Oscar is just trying to get people to pay attention to his company. His company is a joke now. Arums company is also a joke. Everyone will go over to Mayweather Promotions when their contracts are up. They will probably get Rigo.
