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

[SugarRaRobinson]

Youre definitely no expert lol. So why write a novel about how clueless you are? Wards next fight is on BET, and while GGG is becoming a draw, hes not Ppv yet, until he defeats a PPV guy. Canelo is Ppv, Chavez is, Froch is in the UK.

Right now Ward vs GGG is not financially viable for either side. Not even for Wards new promoter, who got money to burn

Any real boxing fan with at least two brain cells to rub together knows that the most exciting fights for GGG are Ward and Canelo . When boxing FANS start talking about GREAT fights not making financial sense it really grinds my gears . Stay in your f..king lane boxing fans . Stop giving the networks pro bono support not to make GREAT fights happen . R u a network owner ? Do u get a cut from HBO profits ? Do u get a cut from PPV profits ? Then why the f..k do u care how financially viable a fight is for a network ? All u should be concerned about is seeing the great fights , so if your concern instead is the financial viability of a fight , then your clearly suffering from delusions of grandure and probably r in need of many, many years of therapy .

double G about that "big money show"


stay hype

People really want to see GGG move up, but besides Ward who is up at 168?
The fact that Kessler (who retired a month ago, if I'm not mistaken, and hasn't fought in over two years) is still considered an opponent for anyone tells you how many great opponents there is up there.
Andre Dirrell, James Degale, George Groves and Badou Jack still have a lot to prove. If GGG moves up and beats any of those fighters, he wouldn't get credit. They would say, "What have Dirrell, Degale or Groves done to be considered a great win". None of those guys has done anything in their careers to be considered a great win.
That's why instead of hating, how about let GGG clean up Middleweight and let the guys at 168 fight each so they can make a name for themselves and rack up a good resume. By the time GGG cleans up 160, one of those guys will come out as the top dog at 168 and GGG can move up to face them.

Froch is semi-retired, he doesn't even know what he'll do.

At 160 GGG has Canelo, Cotto, Lemieux/N'dam, Quillin, Jacobs (although it would be difficult to fight Haymon fighters), Andy Lee, and I'm sure once the money is good to fight GGG fighters from 154 would move up and fight him. GGG is not done at 160 yet, Golovkin haters are the funniest haters I've seen , I always get a good laugh hearing them complain lmao.

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

Weil said - it's funny how every smaller fighter Golovkin calls out is a coward for not immediately raising their hand but when he gets called out by the guy in the very next division you suddenly get Golovkin's supporters becoming financial advisors and the like in his defense. No double standard here. You want a preview of what Ward will do? Take a look at Golovkin's busted up face after his bout against the limited 154 lbr. Gabe Rosado. Now imagine that with the vastly superior (in every way) Ward in front of him. That's what Golovkin's handlers envision as well - bursting of hype balloon and end of HBO broadcasting team's schoolgirl crush.

GGG will fight anyone doe

lol at GGG lovers justifying Cotto, Floyd and Canelo vs GGG and saying that there is no $$ in a Ward fight.

GGG ducking Ward is so obvious that its not funny. He wants the smaller fighter to come to him but he will not move up ONE div to fight a top 5 P4P?? and set his resume, Ward would top anything in GGG resume, heck, GGG does not have anything that would approach 1/2 the caliber in Ward, not ONE.

His fan boys all over GGG nuts when not one win in his resume is good enough to wear Ward jockstrap around their necks! What a joke! No money? lol!!!

If Cotto said that there is no money in fighting GGG you delusional fanboys will be calling him a duck. *** out here with that double standard bs!!!

[Da Boxer]

^^^This here.

GGG is ducking Ward plain and simple.

GGG last fight: I want Cotto, and ALvarez, NOW not in the future !!
Max Kellerman : What about Ward ?!
GGG : Well... hmmmm... you.. know ward great fighter... after Alvarez and Cotto in the future

8min15. GGG : Ward is too much for me right now.




And the money excuse is total crap. If GGG was to move up and destroy Ward, he would immediately become a star and crack the top 5 pound for pound, all his following fights would be on ppv and he would eventually get Cotto and Alvarez.

Like this poster said, money is only and issue when youre not guaranteed the W.

Wake me up when GGG fight an actual threat, not some other tomato cans

This right here, the best post of the entire thread. Green K!

[Hougigo]

Let's see how many people read the article instead of just the title... because right now looking like almost nobody did.

[aboutfkntime]

GGG can do what he pleases because he earned it. Genady walked through the Super 6 (including a one-handed schooling of call Froch), broke Chad Dawson, ... oh wait... Golovkin is the guy that's still taking on club fighters. Nevermind...

hahah
