Why did GGG not fight Ward the lineal champ at 168 but choose Chavez?

[Derranged]

Lets not forget Adonis Stevenson either, he used to be a feared monster and now he's ducking because he decided to go to showtime for higher money.

So lets add to the list.

Mayweather
Broner
Ward
Stevenson

All have no right to fight high reward, low risk fights.

You realize that he could have fought Kovalev already and then went to Showtime after don't you?

I'm not ******, I realize that there are posters who are obviously biased against/towards fighters of a certain color, but the GGG/Ward and Stevenson/Kovalev situations are apples and oranges.

Then Mayweather should move up and fight GGG since he is the p4p #1, its the same jump that GGG would have to make to fight ward.

Another poster here on the forum disagrees with you, read page 1.

So Glovokin should fight the Smaller ranked number 1 guy at 147 and 154, but he should not fight the larger ranked number 1 guy at 168?

Jack Napier
Ward himself is gunning for Chavez
supposedly, that's why he's trying to get away from Goosen
guess Ward can't fight anybody until that dispute is resolved
GGG hasn't even beaten a top flight guy at MW yet
don't really blame him for choosing a lesser guy for his 1st SMW fight

lets have a account bet, if ggg beats chavez and ward doesnt have promotional issues......if ggg fights ward, you never post again and vice versa...

edit:seeing as you ten times more posts so it might hurt a little more, you dont post for 6 months and me lifetime.

In both situations HBO identified fights fans wanted to see then instead of giving them to us immediately decided to "build" to them through a series of other non competititve fights like Ward/Rodriguez, GGG/Lee, Stevenson/fonfora and KKK/Agnew.

Why are you getting so butthurt? I think Golovkin has made the right decision. He chose the best fight financially for him. Why can't his fans just admit that? It's nothing to be ashamed of.

Oh unless you've been crying about how Sergio Martinez is "scared" for weeks and weeks

Andre Ward is still a boxer? I thought he was now a full time commentator...

I thought you indicated before. My apologies.

I thought Arum offered this fight to GGG. Ward hasn't been very active and is in a dispute with Goossen

No they didn't. This is nothing like the Stevenson/Kovalev situation.
