    Ward is too inactive, for whatever reason.

    Khan will suffer the same fate.

      Then you must think that GGG should wait to move up untill he has beaten the best right?
      The best at 160 won't fight him. The best at 168 will. Why not face the best at 168?

        I'm giving Golovkin this year. If he doesn't have the Cotto fight signed by the end of the year, he needs to move up.

          We all know why these guys Want 3g out of mw. They want Cotto to remain champion sso Floyd can beat him at 160 and "make history".

          Being lineal champ only matters when it's Floyd in line.

            Here's a fun trivia to see how relevant Ward is.
            Last time Ward fought a top guy:

            - Adele had just smashed records with "rolling in the deep"

            - 'The Artist' won an Oscar for best picture

            - Prince William married a nice little honey called Kate Middleton

            - Barcelona had just demolished the red mancs in the champions league final

            - Adam Sandler surprised everyone with a new low in 'Jack and Jill'.

            - Whitney Houston was still alive. So was Michael Clark Duncan and another man who never went to the moon, Neil Armstrong.

            - Messi only had 1 Ballon d'Or

            - Captain America had just amazed us with the unbelievable force of steroids

            - Samuel L. Jackson starred in 54394 movies

                Hey jas, you want to make a points bet? I bet Ward's first tune-up will be a top-20 BoxRec rated fighter.

                Want to do 1 quad?

                  I'm surprised I didn't see "LacedUp saw a vagina" on the list

                  I guess that would be the last time Golovkin fought a top guy

                  Which is never.

                    The same double standard that warrants Mayweather, Canelo and other prominent welters and junior welters to move up and fight GGG. Yet GGG gets a pass for fighting limited opposition.

                      I don't think that's their angle. It's more like GGG is good and he has so many nuthuggers. He hasn't really faced anyone so let him face the best guy in the world and lose so people shut up about him for a minute.

                      Ward can stay at 68 as long as he likes...( even though he's proved just about anything he could there years ago). He needs to fight GGG to shut the huggers up then he can move up.

                      I doubt it has anything to do with protecting Cotto or FMJ.
