    Continuing the pattern.

    I used to like GGG and I want to but this is getting sad.

    Glad to see the second post in this thread a shrew one. This careful matchmaking for GGG is reminiscient of the Bob Arum's Pacquiao project. Picking on big men in their weakest moments to build a dominant perception among the boxing ignorant.

    Can we all say now that Ward is being ducked? Of course not, instead what we going to do is blow GGG's balls and claim he is suppose to be higher on the P4P list.

      Good call. That's the best and smartest route for Golovkin. I agree

        He's on that path, but not yet. If GGG gets a few more catchweights despite fighting for belts and fight these guys coming off of losses, then he'll be on his way to being Manny 2.0. Ward is definitely being ducked here.

          3 months ago: "SMH Golovkin is ducking all the 168 killers like Froch and Ward and Kessler and Groves to beat up on crap middleweights."

          All it took was a possible interest in fighting one of those 168 "killers" to make people change their mind. Didn't even have to make the fight yet.

              Kessler isn't a killer these days.. He's a big punching bag and mentally he's not looking for glory anymore just a paycheck.

                Mikkel Kessler hadn***8217;t even started his pressconference announcing his comeback in Copenhagen the other day, before an interested party had made a call.

                According to danish tabloid ekstrabladet, the call to Kessler promotor Sauerland, was from Tom Loefler who promotes Kazakh sensation Gennady Golovkin. Loefler asked if Kessler was ready for a fight in Las Vegas against Golovkin in July.

                The thought of Kessler fighting in July was immidiately shot down as the dane needs 4 to 6 months to get into fighting shape.

                Kalle Sauerland:

                ***8220;To make such a big fight as a minimum, you***8217;ve got to know whether television is interested. HBO is crazy about Golovkin and Viasat would of course show such a fight to the danish audience. This would be a treat to the danish fans and to fans around the world. This is definitely something we will work on.***8221;

                Ekstrabladet believes that Loefler will be asked to pay 4 million dollars for Kessler to face knock-out monster Golovkin in Las Vegas.

                ***8220;Of course I cannot comment on specific numbers when we are not even in a negotiating stage, but it will be expensive to lure Kessler to America. Much more expensive than having the Viking Warrior fight in Denmark***8221; Sauerland says.

                At the pressconference, Mikkel Kessler told lionheart-boxing.dk that he***8217;d be happy to face Golovkin and that even at a catchweight
                Golovkin is willing to fight anyone from 154 to 175......except Andre Ward and anyone at 175. What a f...k....g coward!

                    And what makes you assume that? His last fight where he went toe to toe with the best active SMW, who's on most people P4P lists?

                      What!? You must had been wearing your Stunna Stevie Wonder shades watching that fight because Froch beat the **** out of him. The punches he was connecting him were all haymakers and his defense was shit. Guy was totally embarrassed that night and many said he souls retired afterwards. Either you blind or ******* is your drug of choice.
