Comments Thread For: Andre Ward is Ready, Says Gennady Golovkin is Not

[yoz]

I don't think so...

This is a typical thread that illustrates the benefits of animated dialogue among deaf people...

Green K, bro.

That is not where it originated from. It's much older than that. He's willingness to fight anyone from 154 to 168 has been referenced since before he even made his HBO debut. He even mentions in the post fight interview for proksa.

Well, thanks for the link...

The bloke didn't clearly understand what Max was actually saying (it was a Russian translator behind him whispering into his ear)...

Max: "You said that, you told me yesterday that you're fighting anyone from 154 to 168 pounds... Who do you have in mind?" ...
Golovkin: "Doesn't matter who... I'm ready, I'm stay here, I'm in America..." Max: "Would you fight anyone from 54 to 68?"
Golovkin: Of course, everybody... I'm happy now, I'm ready now..."
Max: "Andre Ward beat Chad Dawson, would fight him?"
Golovkin: "Yeah... What not? Yeah, Andre Ward is a good man, I beat Andre Dirrell, I'm ready now..."

The guy was totally lost in English...

I'm very interested to see what happens after Golovkin's next fight.

I doubt he fights Ward this year.
Ward saying he'll be back in the Spring, but he's suing Goosen again, so he might be sidelined a little longer.

Ward just needs to stop suing Goosen and finish his contract.... inactivity isn't doing him any good....other than commentating.

This is pretty clear

He says hell fight anybody at 168 and that he's specifically ready right at the very moment. He said it beyond that ESPN interview. It has been repeated multiple times.

It's crystal clear now...
He said he was ready, but he's not ready yet.
Agreed...

Here you go again...
Golovkin never said that... Provide us with a link quoting GGG as saying that...

His representation said it. He never refuted it. That's enough for me. I don't give a f.uck if he fights Ward or not. But I'm not gonna sit around and act as if this guy hasn't been promoed as "most feared" and willing to fight anybody from 54-68. If it were simply a case of his management shootin' their mouths off. GGG could have easily come out anf said so. He was perfectly fine with 54-68 when it meant Floyd or Canelo. So he should be equally as fine with 54-68 when its Ward.

I don't care if they fight or not....Triple G would get beat by SOG imo....I just like to see what certain dudes be saying....they be saying SOG is picking on a MW but get all goo goo eyed at Triple G beating up JMWs....Ward vs Triple G?!?....no way.....Kirkland vs Triple G?!?....hell yea!!....that's what they're saying....154 pounds of Nelo shouldn't fight Lara but 147 pounds of Floyd should!!....this place can seem really off at times!!

SO TRUE....These are the best days on the board, when the new "flavor" gets put in his place and the minions scramble about looking for excuses, and get made to look like the hypocrites they are.

[BoxingSmarts24]

the golovkin fans are now pissed because their own "fearless" fighter wont fight ward. HAHAHAHA your champion GGG has only fought 1 world champ and you GGG fans ride him so hard, i dont know why.

Exactly lol... When GGG has no size are power advantage they don't want the fight. But they are fine with him wanting smaller fighters like Floyd, but Ward is too big? lol when Ward and GGG are closer to weight on fight night by a long shot that GGG and Floyd are.

[NearHypnos]

I'm convinced about 80% of the GGG fans here exist solely to s hit on Sergio and Floyd :/

[BoxingSmarts24]

Ward is always 'willing'. Willing to fight this guy and that guy, to travel to their country, but somehow none of these fights ever happen. The man is an out and out liar.

Who was he "Unwilling" to fight? Please let me know. Sounds like he has ZERO problems facing GGG to me
