Andre Ward vs Gennady Golovkin is BETTER than Mayweather Pacquiao. Yeah I said it. May/Pac was casual fan, media BS hype. If you study the style clash, you would realize that Floyd was all wrong for Pac from day one. Pac doesn't even commit to his jab. Rule #1 in solving the May Vinci code is to posses a strong, accurate jab.
Ward vs GGG on the other hand? Is the best matchup between p4p fighters since Chavez vs Whitaker. It doesn't get better than this. It's the best fight that can be made in boxing right now.
Since that is the case, why are people so against this? Do you not want to see the best fighters in the world battle for the #1 spot?

I don't think it is.
1. Mayweather and Pacquiao are All Time Greats, and future HoF'ers. Their achievments range from top 3-5 All Time. Pac achievement of 8 weight champ obviously a record. Floyd 5 weight champ, 4 weight Ring/Lineal champ, back to back Ring champ in two different weight classes in the same year, broke PPV records 3 times (broke his own).
2. Golovkin has yet to beat an elite fighter. It is an insult to Mayweather and Pacquiao to say a fight between Golovkin and anyone else is better. Dude hasn't done sh*t to warrant such a title of better fight than May-Pac, two legends.
3. Ward may end up in the HoF with several more wins and feats, but as of right now he is just one of the best fighters of the sport, probably the best. But still needs more accomplishments to achieve HoF status (Beat DeGale, Jack, Win Ring title at 175 from Kovalev, get some more wins at 175, maybe take Braehmer's title).
Good fight, but Ward vs Kovalev is 10x better than Ward-GGG. GGG should fight someone like George Groves at 168 to see what he has up there against a guy with a couple of losses already.
I think 20x20 might be a ring size I don't know either, but I'm not sure Ward would do well clinching with Kovalev.
Kovalev would be a much stronger guy and him with JDJ seem like a very good fit.
Gennady fights well out of clinches to but I would say thay fight is 60-40 in favor of Ward.
Kovalev beats Ward clearly IMO.
I also think Kova wins it, its champ vs champ both are in prime, i see the fight 50-50
I give a **** about little G vs Ward, GGG fanboys were the ones calling for the fight at 164 or whatever weight n now saying Ward aint the A-side, little g doesnt have nothing for Ward either way its an easy win for Ward, i was just responding to the thread title about making the fight
I rather see Kova vs Ward two of my favorites in that 20x20 to see who wins, idk if thats the size of a boxing ring lol

Uh what's there to discuss? Make the damn fight. Do we really need to see Ward vs bum and Kov vs bum first? Make the same offer to Kov that he made to bigger name Ggg, I'm sure Kov will jump on it
Should Wlad forget about Fury, Wilder etc, fight Eric Molina cause Ward said he could beat him back then?
Why do you have so little faith in Golovkin that you continually have to use Kovalev as a protective shield?
Ward might eventually have to say fuk it and move up because Little G might never put on his big boy pants.
Well he brought it on himself, and so did his fans here. Remember when he came off his self imposed layoff, he accused Ggg of ducking him with 8-9 excuses. Only then it comes out that when HBO approached both guys, Ggg said yes, Ward said no, not the right time for him. Well its not the right time for Ggg now, with all these unifications, so Ward should make himself relevant now with something other than idle callouts of an unproven MW. The Kovalev fight is there for him, what's the holdup?
What is the hold up lol idk, i hope it gets made
Ward and Kovalev camps have already had positive discussions. Confirmed by Kathy Duva. They aren't saying that Ward is ducking them so why are you?
Ward wants to beat Golovkin first since it was his camp who originally said they'd knock Ward out in 10 rounds a couple of years ago but have never tried to follow through on that claim.

Lol wasnt it little G calling out anybody from 154-168, it doesnt matter Ward needs to be more active
Feels like u got some hate for Ward, go ahead n vent your frustration man, what is it, he did win the super six clearly

Lol dude, Super Six was years ago.
I want to see GGG vs Ward too but Kovalev Ward is much more realistic.
Ward did just fight at LHW after all, I'm a fan of Gennady but Ward could beat him.
LHW Ward vs Pascal would be cool with me too.

and on that same token, i dont see too many Ward fans clamoring for a fight vs Kovalev
u are mistaken its just they know if that fight happens the ggg fight is a pipe dream that will never happen were greedy we want both fights

Same with Ggg, going up to beat Ward probably kills the massive Canelo unification. That's the guy who might have Ward on his undercard, remember?
Either way, Kov vs Ward is a great fight, and it shouldn't be contingent on a hypejob MW moving up first. Unless you're not a boxing fan at all

I want to see the two best fighters of our sport fight each other, that is Ward and Kovalev, #1 and #2 P4P respectively. Golovkin and his handlers are happy with him fighting C fighers at 160.
Wards gotta stop ducking and chasing bums and unproven MWs first.

But you don't want both. You know fine well that when Ward moves up to 175, that's where he'll likely stay and win or lose versus Kovalev, your man crush is safe in the wasteland that is 160.
I want Ward-Golovkin at 168 and then Ward-Kovalev at 175.

I felt that fight was 50/50,esp cause we don't know how 3G would deal with the weight ya know..
I agree, going up a division to face a bada$$ like Froch in the UK is a big risk, bigger than Ward ever took. However Froch didn't think much of his chances, and neither did this dirk troll
Why are you hoping for a noncompetitive fight? Well at least you might get Ward vs Periban, that should satisfy you
Lol make Ward vs Kovalev, i got Kovalev winning
LOL...people, Floyd is retired, if GGG is the next PPV star, so be it. Demanding that a MW champ fight a SMW champ who weighs in at more than the SMW limit is pathetic. Time to grow up....if you scared, just say so.
