Comments Thread For: Andre Ward: Golovkin Has Had 8 or 9 Different Excuses

[SeekDaGreat]

How much money did Kirkland bring in for Canelo?
How about Geale for Cotto?
Time for them to stop dragging their feet and step up.

Yeah because Kirkland was Canelo's first choice.

I can't defend Cotto, that's for his Stan's to do. No business fighting Geale.

His lawyer "legally" speaks for him. Yes I already said in other posts that hes fighting 2 tunes ups. After that? Will GGG's team excuse still be that it makes no financial sense?

After the fact, Ward said that he didn't have any knowledge of his lawyer sending that email lol. Just more horse**** from him.
2 tune ups will be mid 2016, IF Ward stays healthy.
GGG has been doing all the leg work while Ward chose inactivity and now needs tune ups.
How much money do you think Ward is going to want to fight Golovkin?

LOL @ light heavyweight fighting at 172 lbs calling out a Middleweight..when Kovalev is in the same division lol...

Damn Ward is weight-draining another opponent..he did the same by making Dawson kill himself to make 68'

You know what else isn't happening?
Ward or Lara fighting GGG in September.
If you weren't a moron, you would understand that.

I must be a moron, yet for the record can you explain why can Lara not face GGG, because Monroe made him look poor and Lara has the same style ? Lara has stated on record he would take the fight, I'm not sure what defeating another JMW who was dropped twice by Angulo would achieve but the fight is there, you can not hide from the fact, or is their another reason Lara can not face GGG ?

Ward could be available for GGG as early as late fall if K2 or HBO put the money up, yet they continue to build this hype train up and whole heartedly refuse to initiative any contact with other promoters such as ROC or Matchroom. Alright I understand they want the bigger name fights with the larger support bases ie Cotto and Canelo, yet both are JMW's and have stated wont be fighting at 160 any time soon, in Cotto's case likely never.

It's time to stop kidding the fans.

Don't you think GGG would've been a better opponent for Canelo than Kirkland?

I've been explaining it, mother****er. Pay attention.
Give us your version of how Lara can fight on HBO.
Ward is fighting 2 or 3 tune ups. David Itskowich said that the time isn't right for GGG vs Ward.

Yes, I do. And TBH, Canelo should fight in this order Cotto, Golovkin. That's my personal opinion.

And Cotto should he fighting in this order Canelo, Golovkin.

So will see what happens. In the meantime, Ward and Lara are available for GGG but I'm sure some "ranked" foreigner will get the fight. Then we can all say "he's fighting everyone who's willing to fight him."

Also, not like Golovkin will come down from 160 to fight Canelo or Cotto right now. He's content with going into the fight with every single advantage. Size, reach, strength?, etc. Yet, he expects smaller guts to jump right on in the ring with him.

Ward and Lara ARE NOT available to fight GGG in September.
Ward is fighting tune ups. His fight next week is vs another SMW but at 172lbs. RocNation exec says that the time isn't right
Lara hasn't fought on HBO since 2012. Why do you think that is?
Tell us what Lara has to do for this fight to happen. Please.

I enjoy watching GGG, have done for a longer period than most of his new fans who began to take note of him upon his break out year, with him being on undercards of K2 shows etc, you know im an avid Klitschko supporter and have been for a substantial time, as I have explained to you before.

What you can not accept is boxing fans view and stand point they are fed up of seeing him in one sided fights used to build his profile on HBO, the time has come for him to step up to a level recognised by hardcore and casuals alike, in fights versus guys who hurt when they return punches, guys like Rubio and Geale are not those guys, and trying to set up fights in lower weight classes don't float either. It is pathetic we are being teased with fights with JMW's when they should be testing the water at 168 against guys like Smith and DeGale in preparation for Ward and Froch.

Yeh ok I understand he wants the big money fights, but if you read and listen to what guys like Canelo and Cotto are saying, you would understand those fights aren't happening, who cares about him unifying the division, we want competitive fights facing guys like Lee and Lemieux ain't gonna suffice either, Rubio stopped Lemieux and Lee lasted all of how many rounds versus Jr. Those fights don't have any appeal. What is it you want ? GGG to have all these titles but not face a challenge ? You're going on about him fighting for the WBC belt regardless of whether Cotto retains it or not and fighting Heiland or some other nobody for the vacant title, why I ask, what is in that excites you ? Who is their in the division who poses a challenge, aside from the money side of things who is worth sticking around for who brings kudos for defeating ? GGG already beat the guy who beat Lemieux, the guy who beat Lee ran to the supers to avoid him forcing him to line up Geale already, Murray arguably beat Marvailla and GGG duly pulled his A hole over his nose. Move up already and give the fight fans what they want.

Why shoulg GGG, a natural middleweight who has never had the slightest difficulty making weight, move up a division because other top fighters at MW have yet to fight him or are busy with their own fights? If GGG only fought once or twice per year, this problem would not exist. But because he is an active fighter he sometimes takes keep busy fights, which at the same time give him experience against different styles of fighter.

Why not complain about Cotto who refuses to accept his mandatory? Or Canelo who sits at 155, avoiding both the best at JrMW and MW? Why not complain about Ward who years ago claimed he would move not only to LHW, but all the way to HW to defeat Klitschko? But you can defend him choosing to wait for a MW to come up and fight him?

Can you be more of a hypocrite? Is it Golovkin's fault that Froch would rather retire than face him? I guess in your world it is. Next thing you know, GGG will be blamed for Ward sitting on the bench for two years.

Golovkin has a goal to unify all the MW titles. Have the decency to let him control his own career.

Triple G's excuses for not fighting Andre Ward: Ward is having contractual issues with his promoter... Ward needs tune ups first...

Oh wait..those are Ward's excuses....

And the best excuse of all:

"After I beat Kovalev, what else is there?" LOL, Hey Andre, aren't you fighting at 172 lb? How about you go back to 168 just like you claim you're going to do after another tune up bout
