      Misleading headline, but he was telling the truth.

      Team GGG was saying anywhere up to 175, they wanted the big fights. Andre Ward stood up, and GGGs people sat their asses back down. Simple as that.

      No one wants to fight Ward; they know they're going to get dominated. The rest of the guys at 168 fighting each other for their trinkets and pretending Ward isn't the one and only top dog in the division is hilarious.

      I love GGG, but it is what it is. Better to focus on 160 anyway.

        What's his argument here? Is he complaining that Golovkin's team and representatives are hyping him up? Because last time I checked that's their job...

        If Ward is upset that Golovkin's team is hyping him up, maybe he needs to re-evaluate his own situation and maybe look elsewhere...

          His argument is that people are talking about Golovkin like he's this heavily avoided beast and no ones in any nearby weight classes wants to fight him.

          Andre was saying that when asked, he said he would gladly fight GGG, and after that he didn't hear a sound out of GGGs camp about 168 or a Ward fight.

          Sergio Mora coming off a good win against Proksa also called GGG out and was ignored.

            Completely agree. It's sad really, never thought andre ward would stoop to this. It's clearly frustration on his behalf that he can't find any decent opposition. He wanted Groves a couple of months ago.

            The issue is andre is as good as Floyd but doesn't have the pot of gold to lure people into a fight with him.

            Perhaps he should call Adonis out.

              This is slightly off topic, but I'd like to see Ward fight Dirrell. I don't know why this fight hasn't happened yet.

                It was suppose to happen in the super 6 but Dirrell punked out of the fight.

                  Gennadi Golovkin "i'm ready to fight anyone between 154-175".

                  Ward answers it "i'm ready boy let's dance".

                  Golovkin... silence.

                    Andre Dirrell? You mean the Andre Dirrell who faked an injury, and then pulled out of the Super Six and went into semi-retirement because he didn't want to fight Ward unless he was getting a massive purse?

                    He's missing in action.

                    As for Anthony, his bother; he couldn't even handle Sakio Bika.
