Comments Thread For: Golovkin-Ward: Promoter Doesn't See Financial Sense

[Weebler I]

Again, Sanchez the trainer said this in an interview on what you call " Floydhype" That's not the way it works Weebler. If Loeffler truly wanted Andre Ward to "send a contract" he would have contacted Ward and his team about it. He hasn't. Neither has Golovkin's promoter. Golovkin doesn't even mention Ward. Fights are not negotiated by trainers during random interviews.

It's funny how you call it "Floydhype" when you're using their site to hype Golovkin.

Golovkin says he's ready to fight Ward right now provided the deal is right.

If the deal is right? What does that mean specifically? That's funny because this week he said he wanted Cotto and Chavez jr before the end of 2015. Not once did he say " if the deal is right" for them lol. He also did not say he wanted to fight Ward. But he clearly said he wanted Cotto or Chavez jr.

Sanchez wouldn't say it if Loeffler wasn't down.

What was key about the interview is Sanchez said Ward is the A-side, citing his association with Roc Nation. Previously Sanchez had claimed Golovkin as the A-side.



They send an offer, from there they negotiate.

Do I believe Team Golovkin wants to fight Ward? absolutely provided the deal is right. Why? because that's what they've said all along.

Both parties don't want the fight at this very moment. GGG's side doesn't want it because there's still big money fights with Cotto and Canelo to be made before he moves up to 168. And Ward needs a tune up or two. This fight isn't happening until at least 2016. Both sides know it and at this point anything said is just to gather interest.

Chavez and Cotto are genuine A-siders. It's understood they bring the money, and probably on ppv. Ward is not ppv, and is only A-side if Roc is willing to make an offer they'd probably lose money on. But they seem to be willing, in general.

BS. That's just an excuse. Edwin Rodriguez was paid 1 million to fight Ward. Much more money than Golovkin has ever made in one fight. Since when has Cotto been a PPV star? He's not going to fight Golovkin anyway.

Chavez jr sucks and it's an easy fight that proves nothing. Just admit Golovkin doesn't want Ward right now and and stop making the sorry excuses for it.

Chavez jr sucks too.

So if he can throw that much money at Rodriguez, why hasn't he made an offer yet?

Cotto is as much of a PPV star as anyone in boxing excluding Floyd and Pac. With the right B-side opponent, he can do 300k+. He'd do at least that much vs GGG.

Ward would love to fight Chavez as well.

Did you have a point to make?

300,000 is not a huge PPV star no matter how you try to spin it.

Why would Ward throw money at a fighter who has no interest in fighting him? If Golovkin's manager, Golovkin himself, and his promoter truly wanted Ward they would contact his team. That's how it works. Not through his manager making baseless comments during a breif internet video interview.

You can't pretend that Golovkin wouldn't make a lot of money fighting Ward. It's a ridiculous excuse.


I made my point. Is it too difficult for you to comprehend?

Your problem is thinking Ward throws money at anyone.

Your problem is a lack of reading comprehension

I never said Ward throws money around. I was responding to a comment claiming that he should throw money at Golovkin.

Did I ever said Cotto was a huge ppv star? I didn't, since he doesn't have to be one to make it lucrative enough for GGG. $2m would probably do it, and $300k should cover that.

If GGG's not interested, Ward wouldn't lose anything by making the offer, get some good PR. Offer him $2m, like Top Rank did for Chavez did. But who are you kidding, Ward is looking for multiple tuneups, and even then can't get anyone to pay him for that.
