"We're ready for all comers"= we only want cotto.... This excludes ward

[bigjavi973]

"we are open to all comers" what they forgot to put was "unless you are andre ward. Too much. Too soon."

[bigjavi973]

ward isn't fighting, is in a different division, hasn't made any offer to GGG and refuses to move up in weight himself... and his trainer says he'd need a few fights first anyway

No one exactly is stepping up to the plate to fight ward. Not even froch. Froch wants him over there lmao who won that 1st fight? oh yea froch should bring his ass this way. As for the "different division" excuse, yes thats an excuse, GGG is willing to fight chavez jr for no belt but wont fight ward for the linel title. Guess what? Chavez jr is in a "different division" as well

Jenna J released this interview back in November, why is Bscene posting it now like it's a headline?

Ward's contract with Goosen was ruled valid thru Nov. 8, 2016. Goosen's suing Ward for $10mill in defamation and that's not even in court yet. That last court ruling and defamation suit came after the Rodriguez fight. No fighter/promoter/network is touching this guy until this stuff is resolved.


Fans & haters will have to settle for Golovkin/Hopkins in May. Waste words on a fight that can happen.

[just the facts]

Ward still has a better resume than GGG even though he's inactive for 1 year and 2 months.

Former Hype Jobs and Boogeymans Arthur Abraham, (Edison Miranda (2x), Jermain Taylor), and Lucian Bute (Edison Miranda, Sakio Bika, Glen Johnson), also both have a better resume than him.

I love to see your face once 33 yrs.old Golovkin is expose this year.

I like where you're going with this, however it's not likely GGG gets exposed this year with the bums and retreads he's lining up for opponents

[bigjavi973]

Yes.

And if Ward really wants it, he should come down to 160 or shut up and stop using Golovkin's name to promote himself.

After all, he had Dawson move down to 168 to fight him.

Dawson: "Ill go down and whoop ward." He wanted to move down himself to fight ward. You just salty ward whooped that ass.

GGG: "Ill fight anyone 154-168 lbs"
Ward: "Fight me at 168 for the lineal title"
GGG: "That fight don't make financial sense"

Are ya that f^cking dumb???

[bigjavi973]

Ward said is willing to fight anyone at 168 or 175, but then ducked Stevenson and Kovalev. Here's a link to it:

That article has NOTHING to do with stevenson or kovalev LMAO. Steveson and kovalev were both making a name for themselves in that time frame that you provided. Fighting fighters such as boone for example

Ward was quoted after S6 that he'd move up to 175 to fight Hopkins, then Dawson beat Hopkins & challenged Ward. Ward then says he's staying at 168, Dawson says fine, I'll fight you at 168. Then later during negotiations Dawson was having trouble cutting the weight and asked for a 170lb catch-weight, Ward said no. Only props for that fight goto Dawson for making it happen

Ward has a long history of pulling crap like this. Andre is a snide, hypocritical, risk-adverse individual who tries to portray himself as a righteous, humble, warrior. It's hard to support this clown.

Question for GGG fans....putting aside Ward's inactivity, legal issues and any other excuses....i mean "reasons".....you wanna roll out. Do you guys seriously think that Golovkin's people would put him in the ring with Andre Ward right now?

Be honest with yourselves.

Only if HBO was willing to go overboard. They've made their plans clear, and they don't include Andre Ward anytime soon.

I guess it might be possible if the Cotto/Alvarez winner won't fight Golovkin and Froch beats Chavez and retires. That pretty much takes care of the big fights Golovkin would seek out instead of Ward.
