The debate, or lack thereof and disagreement seems to be rooted in the statements made by Team GGG. In one video, they're stating that they want to fight Floyd, in another they're stating that GGG beats anyone from 154lbs to 168lbs.
The issue with Floyd:
Floyd (as I stated) is contractually bound to Showtime and Haymon.
- So, why mention Floyd if it is almost an impossibility to get the fight?
The issue with Ward:
Ward responded to public statements by Team GGG and said that he would be willing to accept a fight with GGG if they can come to terms. Team GGG stated publicly, that Ward doesn't bring enough money (PPV) and they would rather face either Chavez of Froch.
- Then don't issue such a vague inclusive statement if Ward is excluded!!
Like I stated before, I honestly don't blame GGG, but I do blame his team for stirring up BS publicly, that has very little opportunity of being fulfilled.
Chavez and Froch fights could be financed easily, Ward can't as his promoter admits, even though they're the only guys with the money and apparent willingness to take significant losses.

Look who still dribbling on the floor offering nothing but constant fanboy BS. Your ignorance and ******ity has been exposed, but like most morons, you're just a glutton for punishment.

Ward is a hypocrite. He's waiting for GGG, the smaller fighter to move up, and also while fighting mediocre fighters in the meanwhile. Ward doesn't want to fight at his natural weight of 175. Mofo fought @ 178 in the Olympics.

Originally posted by livershot73 View PostMy guess would be whichever "bum" has the balls to face him....hey, wasn't Curtis Stevens supposed to test (some said expose) GGG?...to quote an article:
"Even though Golovkin had knocked out 14 of his opponents coming in against Stevens, there were still questions as to how he would fare against a legitimate middleweight contender.
While most of the top flight contenders had been reluctant to step forward to provide any answers, Stevens ran to the front of the line. Fighting out of Brownsville, Brooklyn, Stevens had been one of the most decorated amateurs in New York City. Like Golovkin, Stevens was noted for his heavy hands and knockout power."
Aaaaaand what happened there?.....after that fight, I guess Stevens went from being legit to just being another "bum"....go figure...

This is Arthur Abraham and Lucian Bute all over again.
