Ward shouldn't even be no. 2. He hasn't fought a live body in nearly 3 years do.

****** post.

that was virtually the end of hatton's career. he got bashed in both fights. that's an argument for moving down in weight being a good thing?

Then why did Andre Ward insist that Dawson move down to 168 to fight him? Because Dawson blurted out some bravado during a post-fight interview?

Why does he expect Golovkin to fight him at 168?

"Do onto others as you would have them do onto you" - Jesus Christ, the REAL Son of God. That wasn't something blurted out during a post-fight interview, it's THE fundamental tenet of Christianity.

If Ward calls himself the "Son of God" shouldn't he be LESS SELFISH and greedy and more considerate of others?

Golovkin vs Chavez was going to be at 168 and not 160 right?

yes but ggg team already saying they will move back down right away to avoid ward

[-Kev-]

Doesn't want to move up for one fight, criticizes others for the same thing

There is not only one fight for Golovkin at 168. Ward, Chavez, Froch, Kessler, Groves, I count at least 5. At 175 there's Kovalev for Ward.

1. Obviously.

2. Because Golovkin would move up to 168 to fight Chavez Jr, and said he'd fight any one from 154 to 175.

It's okay if you guys now see GGG for what he is, not the monster that you were all okay with going up to 168. You now see him as an average powerful pressure fighter who would bite off more than he could chew vs Ward at 168.

Sorry Winky, Ward is the dean now

Andre Ward in 2011 what changed?

“I don’t have to go to Lucian Bute right now,” Ward said after the win over Froch. “I’m open for a Kessler clash. I would love to get that rematch and settle the score since he feels like it wasn’t a legitimate victory. He’s an option. Going up to light heavyweight for the right fight — not campaign up there, but for the right fight — is an option. So we just got to sit back and see what makes sense. I think I earned the right to pick the right fight, to be honest with you, for the right price.”

Lulz wants to fight at heavyweight but too small for Kovalev doe

Kovalev
6 foot
180lbs vs Sillakh
183lbs vs Agnew

Andre Ward
6foot
176lbs vs Dawson (who was 185lbs)

Ward and Kovalev are the same damn size

That's pretty much how I feel.

GGG would like to fight Ward, but Loeffler said when they talked about it, Ward was difficult to negotiate with and demanded everything his way (money, home ref and judges, etc).

Ward said he wants to move up and become heavyweight champion.

And despite being a selfish prima donna and a dirty fighter who uses crooked home referees, he says he's the Son of God.

Should we hold him to those words?
