    It's not going to happen sadly enough...it's just not. I rocked with cotto his entire career until he started the shady business shhh. I'm for the preservation of boxing, champions fight champions and guys grind for their shot. Nothing should ever be handed on a silver platter to any warrior. This isn't tennis, it's a sport where each second is a life or death risk. To shortchange someone over politics and business is something I find disgusting in the sport. Rubio should get his shot, GGG should get his shot, even bum @ss quillin should get his shot they kept that division afloat by putting in work for that shot. I'll leave our discussion on a peaceful note. I've gone back and edited the insults out of my recent post. We can finally agree on something and that's rubio deserves his chance.

The only reason Cotto got that shot was because of the money involved which had nothing at all to do with actually deserving it. The least he can do is defend his belt against another one of the champions of the division after it. Also if you are incapable of reading my dude gtfoh...that reply stating who hadn't stated their reasoning wasn't quoting YOU....Unless you are also Hitking.
      this is what we was talking about dumbo

        The only video that's up is the one you've likely seen..GGG was in Kovalev's camp two days later if that's any indication..you don't send home sparring partners unless they are garbage or destroying your fighter.

What's next? Back to he's scared of Ward? I get it son you don't like GGG and you like Ward. Is that it? Have i hit on the nail? Ok now let's move the fk on from this ****** shhh
            ggg's team said that hell fight anyone 154-168, wards team responded with that hell fight ggg at 168. Then they start saying that "the fight doesnt make financial sense" cuz they think that ggg is the bigger draw and the bigger star power. So GGG had NO PROBLEM fighting chavez jr at 168 for no belt but wont fight ward at 168 for the lineal 168 lbs title? come on man I think you should be smarter than that.

              Ward was offered the fight by HBO, which he turned down because he felt GGG was going to be paid too much money and he himself not enough...this is the problem with boxing sites only quoting "buzz worthy" things from an interview. K2 wanted to make the fight...this is why i say go find the full interview and stop living off hit getting bylines on these sites.

                GGG feels Ward is not in the majors yet.

                  Both men want to make a ton of money to fight each other and frankly unless it's ppv the average show budget on HBO isn't going to cover the kind of money they want and we know ppv is not going to be a success either.

                    i did but im at work so it takes me a while. I feel you on that though but i think its start with mayweather. You heard about that bs that he might defend both his wba welterweight and jr middleweight belts against maidana? thats some complete bs maidana has never even had ONE fight at that weight.

                    *Just to let you know I dont get mad its a sports topic and I get really into it. Im even worse (lol) when it comes to my chicago bears. DA BEARS!!!

                      If you was andre ward and was the lineal 168 lbs champ and the number 2 p4p fighter, would you take less money fighting someone like GGG who has a subpar resume of fighters?
