    Sounds like his promoter needs tampon

      As good as Govolkin is, Andre Ward would son him and make him look silly.

        He would smother Golovkin's work and outpoint him. Andre Ward isn't willing to take that fight next though, so he's not in the guts category.

A lot of people have written Junior off after his positive test and bad performance against Sergio, but he has a big chin and a lot of power and he's a very big middleweight himself. It'd be an entertaining and fan-friendly fight to say the least.
            It would definitely be interesting to see if Chavez's size would help him absorb GGG's devastating power. Chavez did look like he got stung by some of Martinez's shots and backed off a few times. He even said he felt Andy Lee's power didn't he?

              Maidana gets dropped by Khan and Lopez bodyshots and he's not '54.



              Froch won't fight him. Even if he wanted to (which I doubt), he won't be allowed to.



              Chavez Jr. and Froch are fighting different opponents next. Ward has got a comeback fight and wants no part of him.


              Do you seriously think Ward is scared or would even lose to GGG

                  Do you see Ward signing the contract? Golovkin is ready, Ward is available. So you tell me.

                    I've seen nothing that indicates that GGG is interested in going up to SMW. Matter of fact, I saw a headline here the other day that stated GGG is contemplating going down to 154. I don't think Ward would have a problem with fighting him, I think it's a relatively easy fight for Dre.

                      His trainer says they'll accept anyone HBO approved from 154-168. Ward was asked numerous times about fighting him, he's always been less than enthusiastic with his response (which has basically been "not right now").
