Comments Thread For: Golovkin Promoter: Not Enough Money For Andre Ward

[FelipeB]

I believe ward should move up to 175 and fight fonfara,Stevenson,kovalev ,etc

[ИATAS]

I listened to the whole interview. Loeffler was explaining that Ward would demand a big purse for that fight and obviously Golovkin would too, so it would have to be a PPV fight as those purse demands wouldn't fit into the budget for HBO...and Ward doesn't have enough buzz right now to make it a lucrative ppv fight. I would love to this fight, but what hes actually saying (not just the headline) makes sense.

Don't expect people on NSB to read this lol. They just read the headlines.

he is because he knows GGG will avoid the fight

So Ward has to earn a shot at GGG?

All he has to do is lose impressively then he will get a shot at GGG.

Monroe makes money? Fight Lara or ward , ggg . You have to fight either one , Lara at 154 or ward at 168 . , stop fighting dumbs ..... Step up the game . Do not call Floyd , who is a 147 , go to 168 instead .

As I said I don't demand Golovkin to fight Ward but the "not enough money" talk is still a BS. Why can't he said just "Golovkin still wants to unify at middleweight" or "Ward is too high risk for too low reward right now". But this "not enough money" talk is a commonly used BS and also a known metaphor for "We don't want to fight him because he's too dangerous.".

Golovkin should practice English so he could do the talk part too and he wouldn't have to let his dummy, delusional coach and his promoter to harm his reputation.

Read what Loefler said:

"Neither of them have been on pay per view ... you can't force a fight to happen. Andre would want a lot of money and Gennady would want a lot of money, and the only way it can happen is on pay per view."

How is that delusional? All Loefler is doing is stating why the fight won't happen yet. Because BOTH fighters would want paying well for it.

And why shouldn't they?

If Floyd and Manny can share $200million for boring everybody to death, why should Andre and GGG fight each other for peanuts right now instead of waiting maybe another 12/18 months and getting what they would both deserve for a fight as important as this?

triple duck is the new Jeff Lacy... look at his trash ass resume, that sht is horrendous. .remember when Lacy was "mini Tyson" the hype was strong..this is now triple duck..

the guy is what 33 yrs old and his signature win is Murray..the guy just got done mauling a guy with 6 KOs..and now hes the most feared..hes the scary monster in the closet.. its all BS..

Mauling Monroe is equivalent to Porter trashing Malignaggi.. two pillow punchers getting ran over..but nobody put Porter on no pedestal after that

Grab Ward and triple Duck right now and swap their resumes.. Ward would be unknown and the Duck would be on PPV..

this my question to fans of mr. Duck Soup, what has your guy accomplished besides swatting bums from the sky.. would you respect Ward if he was 33 yrs old with a resume littered with garbage? Be honest

mr. Duck Soup doesn't make financial sense for Mayweather, but that doesn't stop him from calling him out

Ch-Ch-CHICKEN!!!

Hiya bird brain. Thanks for the red K you sent me the other day.

But the p@cturd insult you sent with it was wasted on me. I've never been a big fan of Manny's, and I'm definitely not an HBO executive. You've no idea how hard I laughed when I read that. You really made my day there.

Andre Turd pricing himself out of the fight. Hope he doesnt start beating his baby mamas now or driving SUV's around town with "Miss Jackson" graphics terrorizing security guards

I need to see the other Middleweights Grow a Pair and fight GGG.

People using Ward as a Gatekeeper for the guys they like at Light Middleweight and Middleweight who one day will have to step in with GGG. GGG fans also running their mouth about Ward needs to shut the *** up, Abel Sanchez as well. Ward did not go looking for GGG, GGG Fans and Abel Sanchez started mentioning Ward!

The man haven't even fought any of the Top Middleweight in the Division yet because they're all terrified to jump in with him so how does moving up right now make any sense.

Winner of Canelo vs Cotto must fight him but while he waits for them, I would like to see him vs Andy Lee or at least the winner of Hassan N'Dam N'Jikam vs David Lemieux
