    I hope Clottey just doesn't shell up ala Pac fight.

    He didn't in his last couple of outings but there is always that fear.

      It's funny how he says he doesn't want Canelo in the future, he wants him now. But when faced with the Ward question, he cops out just like Canelo did, "in the future".
      Why is there no pressure for Ward to fight Koalalev?

        Froch wants nothing to do with GGG and neither does Ward at this time. Here is the transcript for that part of the post fight interview...

        Exact transcript:

        Kellerman:

        What do you think of a fight eventually with Andre Ward ?

        Golovkin:

        Look guys, this is sport, Andre… respect him, he is great athlete, professional athlete, you know, he need… he need maybe right now start, I understand his situation, just first of all, I think ,Canelo and Cotto. Next of course, Ward.
        We are ready for anybody.
        Ward has asked not to be spoken of and GGG is trying his best to accommodate him.

          Canelo would be a great fight, but I have a feeling he's going to stick with this made up 155 lb bullshit weight rather than admit he's really a MW.

            Man, I'd say if Cotto drop that belt he'll become irrelevant. Cotto should stay away from this division because he isn't even comfortable holding the title belt as a hostage because he's fighting a middleweight at a catchweight.

                Lmaol cotto has a middleweight title and GGG wants to unify so whats wrong with that. Of course he wants canelo thats his golden ticket is the same way everyone wants mayweather because of the money.

                Now GGG wants to unify the division and you claim that he was quiet by facing ward? Wouldnt it be the same on why ward doesn't move up and fights Kovalev? Or maybe if ward has want the fight like how his biased fans claim why not ward goes down to 160 and fight GGG. I mean he did it with dawson why can't ward do the same???

                In the interview he said he u derstand ward situation about needing tune ups so what else can he say? He said first cotto winner is his mandatory right? Then canelo because he may finally move up to 160 officially at least then ward tell me how does that not make any sense fighting cotto canelo first for more money than ward would ever win.

                Now in the event golovkin decides to go to 168 you want him to face ward right away instead of getting a 168 less dangerous and feel out the new weightclass? Talk about giving all the advantages to ward.

                  I don't think it's happening. It makes more financial sense for Canelo and Cotto to fight each other and phase out GGG. Which is probably what will happen.

                  GGG is too good for his own good. Andre Ward would fight him, that's a fight I'd like to see.

                    Both GGG and his promoter has said they don't want Ward. So that's not true.

                    Ward has said he'd fight GGG.

                      Yeah but you have to understand where the money fights are? Are you telling me you'd move up right now to fight Ward in a fight that really won't bring that much money or would you as a boxer wait for Canelo who is guaranteed to bring the bigger money?

                      I would love for GGG to move up but it's simply a business decision. He can make more money fighting every three months and possibly getting a Canelo fight next year than he can at SMW. Period. Name me one fight up there that is as big as Canelo for GGG?
