Will Ward prove his offer to GGG was legit by fighting him @168 next year?

Andre Ward - Ducked the GGG fight in 2013 @168 when both were active and available. (http://www.boxingscene.com/golovkin-shreds-andre-ward-why-you-talking-sht--92369) - HBO offered the fight to Ward after GGG destroyed Macklin, Ward was commentating and said "No thanks", fought Edwin Rodriguez instead. (http://allboxing.ru/news/20150615-2239/gennadiy-golovkin-uord-hvatit-boltat-za-soboy-smotri)

Russian Interview before was all correct, not the latest UK Interview https://t.co/U74aYpmMwY

- Ward could not ever make 168 since fighting Rodriguez in 2013, fought Paul Smith at 172 to prepare to go to full LHW. (http://www.boxingscene.com/ward-smith-172-ward-move-175--90223) - Ward went inactive, irrelevant for 2 years, had one fight on BET (at LHW) and pretends he can call the shots against GGG. - Makes "offer" an hour after GGG reveals opponent + future plans/WBC mandatory - Ward's offer would be for 1 year in advance which is about now, @168 (http://www.latimes.com/sports/sportsnow/la-sp-sn-andre-ward-boxing-gennady-golovkin-hbo-tom-loeffler-20150915-story.html) - Couple weeks ago Ward reveals he has problems making 175, cant possibly make 168. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JvenLfKZKIw) Sanchez just called out Ward, said GGG would fight Ward @168 if Ward gets off his Diva attitude. People seem to forget, that Ward offered the fight for GGG for the summer of this year, which would basically happen NOW or a couple weeks ago. Will Andre Ward prove his offer to GGG was legit and make the fight at 168? Will the usual GGG haters and Ward nuthuggers (mostly pathetic, uneducated african americans racists) in this forum finally admit that Ward is a liar and pretender? Special Exta! Want an opinion about Ward vs GGG from an unbiased african american boxing fan??

If's and but's. Would've, could've, should've. In the end we can only judge these guys by what they are actually producing in the ring. Ward's got Kovalev next. GGG has Kell Brook. It is what it is. Does Canelo count since he invited GGG "in the ring", says hed fight at 160, only to surrender the belt days later?

You deliberately leave out the part where GGG tried hard to get fights with Saunders and Eubank before accepting an offer to fight Brook before time ran out on his HBO date. You leave the part out about GGG's desire to fight Saunders right after Brook. If's and but's. Would've, could've, should've. In the end we can only judge these guys by what they are actually producing in the ring. Ward's got Kovalev next. GGG has Kell Brook. It is what it is.

Ward was so scared that he went up and fought Kovalev who is the best in his division. GGG was so scared that he's fight a guy thats not even the proven best at welterweight. Ward is clearly shook.

Andre Ward is fighting Kovalev next. Golovkin is fighting a blown up 147 pounder. That says it all, really. Any unbiased and objective fan can see the truth.But you aren't unbiased and objective are you now? You are a Ward fan who doesn't like GGG. You deliberately leave out the part where GGG tried hard to get fights with Saunders and Eubank before accepting an offer to fight Brook before time ran out on his HBO date. You leave the part out about GGG's desire to fight Saunders right after Brook. You also leave out that Ward's last fight was against an unheard of guy in the weight class below his. So please quit acting so unbiased and objective because that ain't you.

Ward said quite clearly he can no longer make 168 and will never return to that weight again. At the time that Ward verbally called out GGG, GGG was under contract and in training to fight Lemieux and had to go through with that fight. A short time later Ward was injured and unable to fight anyone. Before Ward issued his now famous media challenge to GGG to fight him he fought Smith a 168 pounder at a catchweight of 172. I think that makes it clear Ward's 168 pound days were over before he ever challenged GGG. If a Ward vs GGG fight had been seriously negotiated Ward would have insisted the fight be fought a 175 pounds. With Ward it's my way or hit the highway.

Not according to that guy. It was pretty clear what you meant.

Do you even read what you are commenting on this website? You said it makes GGG irrelevant, not Ward vs GGG. You kept hating on GGG claiming GGG would be irrelevant now, even though 10 times as many people want to see GGG vs Canelo than Kovalev vs Ward. Who is the irrelevant here? GGG is irrelevant concerning Ward, who's fighting Kova. Not GGG being irrelevant as a fighter himself. I'm pretty sure this is the 2nd time I've cleared that up for you. And I didn't keep hating on anything. I said once, GGG is irrelevant. (But not as a fighter. Concerning Ward he is because Ward is fighting Kova). This is now the 3rd time. And again, GGG/Canelo has nothing to do with Ward, or Kova. And if we're being honest, which you don't seem to be doing, Ward/Kova as a real fan would know, should be a vastly superior fight to GGG/Canelo. In which GGG should be favored dramatically. Where as Ward and Kova should be rightfully so, 2 of the top fighters in the sport.

Ward is about to fight a bigger and better fighter. Who cares about him fighting gg anymore. That ship has sailed Must be trying to divert the attention that ward is fighting a dangerous guy while gg is fighting the king of mandatories brook That's all you got? Alright. Guess i have done my work.

The offer was legit, it doesn't mean Golovkin had to accept it.... I never once implied that Golovkin ducked the fight. Oh you like those guys?? that's news to me man seeing as you almost never have anything to say about those fighters. Anytime you make a thread on a black fighter I know what to expect, just like if Larry makes a thread about Golovkin I know what to expect. Look in the mirror, you are everything you despise on this forum. If you think you're objective then I also feel sorry for you. If this forum had less racism like for example another forum i like to talk on, yes i would gladly concentrate on the positive sides of the sport. I enjoy the sport and hate the haters. But I just can't deal with injustice and if nobody fights it, i'll do it. I know Golovkin from his first steps in Germany trying to get that Sturm fight but was getting held back by his German Promoter who denied him the chances to fight for a title. Corruption and lies, he had to fight through it for several years until he got out of the contract in Germany and moved to the USA and signed with K2 and found his new trainer in Abel Sanchez. Anyway, you are one of the good guys, but you also expect way too much from others on this forum or you are just good at ignoring the haters. I am not, i'll fight for justice. Sometimes with all means.

First of all, please read and understand what I wrote before insulting me. I said it's good to expose all the racists and haters. I never said all Ward fans are racists and haters. Sadly a ton of these people comment on this forum and pretend to be Ward fans, when in fact they just want to fuel racism. Damn i like Shawn Porter, Anthony Joshua, Kell Brook and Roman Gonzales among many other black fighters. You still claim (or pretend?) the offer from Ward was legit. I get you. Ok I am really sorry for you. The offer was legit, it doesn't mean Golovkin had to accept it.... I never once implied that Golovkin ducked the fight. Oh you like those guys?? that's news to me man seeing as you almost never have anything to say about those fighters. Where are your threads defending Joshua from PED accusations, where are your threads crediting Porter for taking on all comers?? Anytime you make a thread on a black fighter I know what to expect, just like if Larry makes a thread about Golovkin I know what to expect. Look in the mirror, you are everything you despise on this forum. If you think you're objective then I also feel sorry for you.

"Middleweight champion Gennady “GGG” Golovkin has flatly denied quotes attributed to him by a U.K. based website, which were picked up by numerous other media outlets. “These are not my words in this interview,” said Golovkin. The fabricated quotes had claimed Golovkin as saying Andre Ward turned down an HBO fight with him and also that Ward changed weights in the Olympics to avoid him." http://www.*********.com/Boxing/golovkin-denies-he-said-ward-ducked-him-296803 I already made that clear, stop pretending you dont know exactly whats up. I never quoted the fabricated UK interview, I only refer to the LEGIT Russian Interview which was translated by Badlefthook and Boxingscene, Loeffler himself stated it was legit: http://allboxing.ru/news/20150615-2239/gennadiy-golovkin-uord-hvatit-boltat-za-soboy-smotri http://www.boxingscene.com/golovkin-shreds-andre-ward-why-you-talking-sht--92369 http://www.badlefthook.com/2015/6/16/8788845/gennady-golovkin-blasts-andre-ward Russian Interview before was all correct, not the latest UK Interview https://t.co/U74aYpmMwY— Tom Loeffler (@TomLoeffler1) July 8, 2015

Stop with the race bullsh1t, not everyone that has a critique of Golovkin is a racist. You've done nothing but make negative threads about Andre Ward and other black fighters, you must also be racist then? The Kovalev fight is finally a done deal but you have to keep making threads "exposing" Ward, what don't you get? Ward offered to face Golovkin at 168 when he still had titles at 168. Do you still expect him to face him at 168 after getting accustomed to fighting at 175?? What is wrong with you man? You're just a fanboy at the end of the day that's why you frequently get drawn into back and forths with the other fanboy losers on this site. Your blood boils if anything negative is said about GGG whether true or not. You'd have no purpose without posters like Canelomaidana, Larry and others. First of all, please read and understand what I wrote before insulting me. I said it's good to expose all the racists and haters. I never said all Ward fans are racists and haters.

A usual suspect got exposed huh? By what? Ward/Kova makes GGG/Ward irrelevant. Hope that clears it up for you. Furthermore what would GGG/Canelo have to do with this?? It was pretty clear what you meant.
