Comments Thread For: Andre Ward's Trainer Reacts To Sanchez's Comments

[twosweethooks]

True, but bull!! GGG hasn't fought anybody good, and he still on HBO! Now it probably has something to do with money! Ward makes more than GGG, which is why GGG has to fight bums 4 times a year! But in IMO Ward destroys GGG! and when I say destroy, I mean BY TKO!! Everybody on GGG nuts, but lets see him get in the ring with real competition! Everybody hate on Floyd for his opposition, but when when I think about it now, who has a better resume other than Cotto? NOBODY!!!

Cotto has a great RESUME !!!!!

Was never afraid to face a threat !!!!!!

Slaughtered by two elites back in the day that put him on the WORN OUT LIST

GGG will prove himself , and I don't mind getting on that TRAIN !

He is OPEN to the WORLD, I read it , I saw the video, 154 -168

that means

he is ready to fight anyone at 154 to 168,,,,,,he is NOT ducking anybody

GGG is a very dangerous opponent and if K-2 and HBO are going to offer these guys sunflower seeds than why should they fight him,or waiting until a guy has a visa issue to offer him a fight, secondly What does any of this have to do with Abel?GGG fell into his lap as a finished product,so Virgil is right he should humble himself.

"Why should they fight a champion for his belt, wahh wahh wahh, I want my money, wahhh"

That's all I'm hearing, no the best fights the best, no intrinsic motivation, no strive to succeed, simply money, fame and fortune, as opposed to greatness.

A lot of boring champions we got today. Don't you think it's sad when a fighter worries more about the money he earns in boxing than the legacy he leaves behind? Legacy lasts when you're dead, money doesn't.

You know I find this funny, and I'm not saying its you in particular, but people complained about Haymon fighters easy match ups on HBO then turn around and say Golovkin's are okay because he KO's them. If its okay for GGG to go in on Ishida's then there should've been no complaints about Broner beating on Rees

You heard the response of Sergio Martinez's promoter,,,???after the Mack fight??? He said something like Sergio is not getting immediately in there with this monster (GGG).

HBO will pressure the fight to happen between Sergio and GGG or GGG will get somebody exciting

ANDRE is boring but he is perfect for GGG, put those two together and it won't be boring.

in the meanwhile both need to fight great opposition, the best they can get and stay undefeated

then meet in the center of the ring

Well it is prize fighting.....I pretty sure that not even your beloved Golovkin would get punched in the face for free,look at Rigondeaux he holds multiple belts in his division and still can't find an opponent willing to tangle. Btw until Sergio is defeated he still holds the real middleweight title.

[The Big Dunn]

If HBO thought GGG could beat Ward right now they would make the fight. Notice how Lampley downplayed the fight big time. Its because he and the suits know Ward would derail the GGG hype train.

Let Ward get a touched up by Adonis or struggle to make 168 and then HBO will figure the time is right to put GGG in there with Ward.

Virgil is absolutely right.

In the last 3 years Ward fought Chad Dawson ,Carl Froch , Arthur Abraham Sakio Bika and Allan Green , all legit fights.

In the same period Golovkin fought a contender in Matthew Macklin, then ...

Nobuhiro Ishida,38 years old, a carrer 154 pounder.

Gabriel Rosado, another fighter who doesn't belong at 160. Last year he fought Soto Karass. He's solid, but what did he do to get a shot at a belt at 160?.

Grzegorz Proksa, a guy who went on to lose against Sergio Mora.

Makoto Fuchigami, who never fought outside of Japan before or after Golovkin

Lajuan Simon , who came off a loss to Dionisio Miranda

And the list goes on. Golovkin always looks good, but has fought guys that were there to make him look good.
I am fairly positive that Ward would have knocked out opponents of a similar level.

[Rip Chudd]

So 350-5 with 6 burger flippers. I was just getting to the point that a lot of people use his amateur record as justification for his name being put in the mix for these super fights.

Oh man this had me falling over laughing

[brick wall]

you can't compare ward with golovkin because golovkin doesn't even get half of ward's purse demand.

if golovkin is asking for a million, hbo would've also refused some of his previous opponents.
