[VIDEO] "Andre Ward is too much for me" - Gennady Golovkin

[Dirk Diggler UK]

GGG may very well destroy Lara, but the point is, Lara is better than the bums GGG fights and when Lara wanted the fight this dude went and fought another bum. Just fight the guy, win, lose, or draw, fight SOMEONE.

Dont you think this GGG mess has gone on too long? This hype about him, he should have BEEN fought someone. He was chasing Martinez old behind but he could have been fighting top fighters in that time period.

Lara is Showtime/Al Haymon. GGG is HBO.

But you knew that.

[MurkaMan]

Lara?

How can he duck Lara?

Yeah, he ducked Lara




Derp

He was complaining about no one wanting to fight him and Lara called him out. Dont you think that fight would have been better than the bums he fought?

They were shook AF when Lara called him out. GGG wont fight ANYONE lol This dude will NEVER fight someone like Ward you can forget that.

[.:: JSFD26 ::.]

He never was. Hype talk and hopefully now it stops.

We had the same **** with Paul Williams a few years ago.

Oh I know it was all hype talk and people fell for it, obviously.

Idk if Williams is a good example tho. The guy fought from 147 to 160. You gotta give him that.

He said "Andre Ward is too much for me". I understood it pretty well.

People seemingly have different interpretations of what he meant.

I don't have an agenda . My view is this..... I don't blame them for not wanting to fight Ward. Ward isn't worth it right now. I don't even know if he's allowed to fight. He's not a PPV fighter or a big draw. There are bigger fights out there for GGG.

However, I hope this can finally shut all the annoying GGG fanboys up about how the world is ducking him and he can't get a fight. He and his team make business decisions just like everyone else. His fans need to stop deriding other fighters for doing the same things he is doing.

He's evidently not some fearless beast who'll fight anyone, any time, any weight. His and his teams words prove that.

but they werent asking GGG what he thinks about andre ward as a figher or what he thinks about fighting andre next.. they asked him what do u think about andre saying u're ducking him. thats why he replied with thats too much for me. do u honestly think GGG will admit that andre is too much for him to consider fighting? LOL!!

Applying the same logic I can say "I hope this can finally shut all the annoying Ward fanboys up about how the world is ducking him and he can't get a fight" because he can fight Kovalev and Stevenson at 175.

YOU CANNOT DUCK SOMEONE WHO ISN'T IN YOUR WEIGHT CLASS. And for the record I don't think Ward is ducking Kovalev and Stevenson just like GGG isn't ducking Ward. They're in different weight classes.

[MurkaMan]

Another coward in a long line of cowards this sport creates. GGG is afraid of losing all the hype behind him like Bute and Lacy lost all their hype.

I just said something similar. GGG is like any other fighter. He's going to fight guys he thinks he can beat, he's not going to fight someone he knows for a fact he cant beat, especially when he has something to lose.

That Lara fight could have been made EASILY, and he just wouldnt step up.

[hectari]

His English is terrible, I can guarantee you that he doesn't know what that meant as far as we took it.

GGG and 99% of boxers aren't scared to fight anyone, and don't think anyone is better than them. If you don't have that attitude, then you shouldn't be fighting.

^this here, the guy doesn't even speak English well, some people here are reaching at anything to make it look like the smaller GGG is ducking Ward.

Yeah you could. I agree with that. Ward is being a bit of a knob at the moment.

[IMDAZED]

I cannot picture him ever saying he is wary of Ward. He has had too much success and probably feels invincible. Now his management, the ones who look at risk/reward, may try to steer away from the fight for now if they deem it too risky, and I would not blame them.

Not only would he be going into uncharted waters in weight class he would be very small for, he would be up against possibly the P4P best fighter on the planet. That is a lot to ask and I would not want my fighter, no matter how good, to have to take that risk without testing. I would make sure he has some fights at that weight to make sure he handles it well first, before taking on a top dog in that division.

This fight has to happen but I think before it happens, GGG needs a Canelo/Cotto type opponent. He might possibly be boxing's next biggest star if HBO plays their cards correctly. At that point, a Ward-GGG showdown in the fall of 2015 would be huge.

[Ganondorf]

Andre Ward is either calling out smaller fighters or asking for catchweights

Because he's already crushed any threats near his size. Who do you want him to fight? Froch again? Dawson again? Kessler maybe? Bika? Abraham? Enlighten me.
