    i remember abraham owning ward with his strong jab, problem is abraham doesn't throw much of anything except loaded bombs and ran out of stamina fighting out of character in that fight

    golovkin can give ward a run for his money, no doubt about it

    people overrate the hell out of boring fighters

    if you're boring = super technician
    if your exciting = no defense having, plodding ******

      Abraham never owned Ward with anything. He had 2 decent rounds and got embarrassed for 10.

        Should be a highly competitive one! Nobodys gonna dominate no one so I dont think its gonna be a KO, especially not at 168
        Ward will nullify GGGs offence too much too get wobbled, but wont have enough power to KO GGG. Hard pick may it ever happen... but GGG never have seen anything like Ward in the ring.
        Ward by close UD

          ****ing wobbled him about twice with a jab

          froch-abraham was embarrasment, ward-abraham was pitty-pat point scoring and play keep away after abraham blew his load

            I think you have that backwards.

            Super technicians are usually labelled boring and all out attackers, even if plodders are exciting. I believe that's an over simplification of a complex sport with varying styles and physicalities.

            Anyway, on topic. Golovkin is an exciting boxer-puncher who might give Ward a good fight, it's hard to say for sure because he's not nearly fought at the same level. And that's not about assignjng blame, it's just a simple fact. Golovkin has looked a million dollars agajnst mostly second tier competition, Ward came out of the super six supreme. I'd like to see Golovkin step it up fast to see what he's about against the best.

            The irony is, the TS talks about "hype" then goes on to do exactly what Golovkin is not about, hype him by guaranteeing a KO victory over Ward when hasn't faced anything like that level of fighter. Let's see GGG do his thing first. It's exciting though.

              I believe he has no weaknesses and would destroy any opponent from 154lbs to 168lbs without even breaking a sweat.

              I've watched 22 of his fights and analysed his style very closely. I am 100% confident he would perform even better when he steps up the competition.

              The guy has power unheard of in MW history. Without a doubt he will hand Andre Ward his first loss & would KO him. Ward honesty doesn't want this fight. Imagine going into a fight knowing that there is a 90% chance that you are going to get Knocked the F**k out. Ward can't afford to have that happen to him.

              Why should he move up to 168lbs now? If he does you will never give him credit and will say he fought bums. Deadset, everyone is scared to fight him. Even that ***** cat Sergio Martinez.
              I also think he beats Ward

                I truly doubt GGG would KO Ward... In fact, I believe Ward style would frustrate GGG and would fall late like Dawson. Golovkin needs more experience against defensive fighters who know their stuff or at least fight some elite fighters in his division. Let's see a fight with Sergio first and then we can determine a little more

                  There are some great fighters coming from Russia these days. Some of them like GGG are the best in the world by far. Some American fans have seen black American fighters usually be the best for the last 50 and more and they don't like the change. That may sound racial but I believe it's part of the reason GGG gets trashed so much. I like good fighters regardless of their country or race and I think GGG is the best pfp fighter in the world and he would gladly prove it against the best middleweights if they would fight him.

                      BIG dreams for a little man.

                      He should worry about Kid Chocolate and Maravilla first.
