I really believe that Ward/Golovkin happens next year, but that's the first time I've heard about a catch weight for the fight. I haven't seen comments or interviews with Sanchez or Golovkin saying they want a catch weight to fight Andre, I have seen an interview with Sanchez where he said they would move up to the full 168 for the fight.
Other than that, Loeffler's response to the fight is consistent with Virgil Hunter & David Itskowitch - the fight happens when it's ppv and makes the fighter's alot of money.
