Comments Thread For: Golovkin Would Like To Face Andre Ward, But Not Now

[MrTambourineMan]

Talk about a deliberate title!

Guaranteed to make certain fight fans come out. DUCK!

Red K me if you want Ward fans, but Andre has shown more duck in his Career than Golovkin ever would in 10 Careers.

Golovkin has nothing for him at MW... he should move up!

What does Ward have for him? He should move up.

What's the justification there? Waiting for Chavez Jr? Golovkin waiting for Martinez

lol you're probably safe. I think it's more GGG-haters in the thread than Ward fans (notable exception of a couple).

The biggest draws in boxing history are the guys who can box without tripping all over the ring! ........and can Punch!!! GGG can punch, he boxes well enough and in time we'll see how he absorbs a punch!
Theres no one from 154 to 168 that comes close to his boxer/punch skill level.
We saw Canelo, Trout and Kirkland. The current 160 guys want NOTHING to do with him but a guy who weighs in at 168 and fights at 175-178lbs is willing to call out a 160lb guy!!!! How brave, instead of GGG giving Ward the 12 pound hike why not Ward jump up the 7 pounds and throw his hat in with Stevenson and the rest of the 175 crew???
I get a kick out of the so-called champions these days who call out the guys in the "lower weight classes" wtf! How classLESS is that............Mayweathers used that ploy to many times and GGG is stuck with the junior middles because the 160 guys won't fight him. Its not like he's demanding big money and its not like they won't get paid!!!

Theres going to be more and more of this coming...........Golden Oscar swore he'd get the matches made but he's just Arum Junior!!! All the promo companies protect their own everyone knows that but once in a while even the old WBA and WBC would put their belts up because the fans demanded it!!!
Their belts have a way of returning when their manditory is denied they bring the belt home, no big deal!

Boxing===Greed its the formular in todays ring! Ray.

I don't mind. I want GGG to be at his very peak unlike canelo who was caught very green; when he faces andre ward. But then again, ward has great chance on beating any version of triple g; he's that skilled.

[DoktorSleepless]

If it should happen at all. I don't think Golovkin is a SMW and the last type of opponent he should face at a higher weight class is a Bika/Ward type mauler. He would probably lose and could compromise himself as one of the potentially great MWs.

Imo it would be a silly move on HBO's part too. They constantly push Ward but owing to his style I don't think he's ever going to be the crowd puller they want whereas foreigner Golovkin is doing bigger numbers than Ward against the likes of Curtis Stevens and is on a steep upward trajectory.

I frankly don't care if I ever see a Ward fight again so I wouldn't care if Golovkin is ducking Ward. It would be a one sided fight anyway.

But if Golovkin is desperate to get a name on his resume and is willing to fight anyone from 154 to 168 like he claims, the time to call for it would be now, not later. It's not going to happen later.

Golovkin the new cash cow of MW division. Lou hates that and keeps throwing names and stipulations at Golovkin.
Blah Blah Blah Cotto, yea... go ahead and talk about how Golovkin fights JMW's.
Ishida, the Japanese giant who fought at MW three times in a row, and Rosado, the guy who beat that cheating ass Love and made Chocolate look so average.

Who're they fighting again? A bloated up JMW

[zuz]

Golovkin is an overhyped and overrated one of the fakest champions right now as all these lowskilled bums "champions" before like Cleverly, Dzinziruk, Abraham, Zavek, Chavez jr., Rios, Alvarado, DeMarco etc. till the first serious test with either class A or B opponent.

Let that can crusher fight some decent guy to get exposed.

Madufaka clearly ducking Ward, Froch, Stevenson but calling out a welterweight Mayweather.

Jeez, what a pusy attitude.

[MDPopescu]

When did Ward ever state this? Do you have a source?

Ward started early with this...

Andre Ward says he and Gennady Golovkin "could be a big fight down the road"
