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

[MDPopescu]

This is totally false, if you followed Ward like you say you do, than you know he only rehydrates in the lower/mid 170's fight night. He was 176 vs Dawson's 188, 175vs Froch's 176. When has Ward ever had problems making weight?? He fought undersized @ light heavy during the 2004 Athen's summer olympics. He started his career as a middle weight. Both trout and canelo during their fight vs each other both weighed 173 and 174 on fight night, and they fight 2 weight classes below ward. If Ward walks around 180. Than how much do you suppose the top light heavy's walk around? i'll tell you both adonis and sergey fight night weights their last fights where in the high 180's. When in reality ggg , quillin, rosado, murray, barker, and all the other middle weights hydrates to the 170's, same as Ward's fight night weight. Oh and here is an interview with ward saying he would eventually move to light heavy @175 and that is actually his walking around weight. listen between 30-40 seconds.

Chrystal clear -- everybody rehydrates (Canelo at 173), except for poor Andre... And presumably Martinez, who walked 154 pounds and ate steak and potatoes all week just to weigh in at 157½... when Ward tweeted (back in March 2012) that he is interested in facing Martinez...

Just to be clear.....you think that Golovkin calling out Floyd is a ******ity. Correct?

Correct -- undoubtedly...
The same as Ward calling Martinez... (Martinez, who walked 154 pounds and ate steak and potatoes all week just to weigh in at 157½... when Ward tweeted (back in March 2012) that he is interested in facing Martinez...

You MADD Umm who's talking about martinez?? Who said ward doesn't rehydrate Just listen to the man himself "Ward" give the interview I posted in my previous post. I'm not infatuated fighters. Like others on this site. I love the sport of boxing.

There's no need to call me names... (I never do this to anyone...)
I'm not "infatuated" to any fighter in particular. I also like this sport (obviously), but I don't like particular fighters who pretend to be what they are not.

How can I make understand that I'm not a Golovkin fan?
My "problem" is with Ward? What's so difficult to understand? This guy is giving away his prime because of his huge ego and his delusional idea that he's somehow the "next Floyd" -- who he is not...

[SlySlickSmooth]

The only way this fight works is if GGG moves up. Both these two guys are fighting at their proper weight. It's nonsense if its a CW. Andre Ward is held at #2 on P4P and many still believe GGG is untested.

This fight has time to build.

[Grimmer]

The guys ducking Ward because he wants to fight Martinez and become Middleweight champ of the world?

Some people in this thread need to head over to Wrestling forums 'cause they haven't a clue about boxing.

Sure, cool story bro. Huge ego would be Broner not Ward. I think it's ward's pride that makes other's upset. Don't know how he's giving away his prime? I know you said your not a fan of GGG, but he would be considered giving away his prime, he's older than ward with far less accomplishments, and since everyone thinks the other middle weights are ducking and not to fond of fighting him. Well his logical choice is to move up right?
