Ward resume > GGG lack there of resume

How did you manage to figure this out?
Tell me your secret...

[bigjavi973]

... and wasn't you the one who made the Ward-Smith thread?

Yes I made the poll thread. Your point? Where did I speak about GGG in the OP of that thread? Quit reaching.

Keep hiding, Cotto fan.

"Muh Canelo fight doe"

"Catchweights or no fight doe"

Hiding? you can keep reaching too.

Froch in Nottingham is the easiest rout to be back to spotlight. Easy win, good money and big name.

[Larry the boss]

Because unlike a Ward fight, both of those fights would be PPV. And Golovkin has made it VERY CLEAR that the only reason he moves up is for a PPV fight.

Why would Froch be ppv? he is not big in the states

If HBO execs thought this was the case, this fight would've been made ages ago. Instead, we get Lampley downplaying the fight on shows and on the fight game.

Look man, no matter how you feel about GGG, Ward proved himself against great comp, GGG has not. I can respect any GGG fan thinking he would win.

He's got to prove himself to real fans, not just those that crave "excitement". He is the equivalent of Vince Carter-exciting but not around when it counts.

the fight gets made as soon as it is capable of making a profit. what's so hard to understand about that?

but just remember that the only time k2 tried to initiate negotiations, andre ward said no

[Death_Adder]

so the "killer" who has a "difficult" time getting fights... is using the high risk/low reward scenario???

Sure, isn't that why Cotto doesn't want to fight GGG?

Wasn't that the excuse FloStans had been using for years?

Now that the tables are turned, you want to say it's a bad excuse? GTFO

What does Froch get out of it?

Wards stock is at an all time low, not to mention he's a pain in the ass to work with.

it would be a pay-per-view headliner on sky sports in the uk, and hbo would surely pay decent money to put it on regular hbo as well. so that fight is funded from two sources. ward, on the other hand, doesn't even have a network. if he really wants the fight then he should ask jay-z to pay for it

[The Big Dunn]

Yes it does matter, why risk a fight with Ward when there's a big PPV showdown with Canelo/Cotto looming?

And for what peanuts? Anyone with a brain knows putting Ward on PPV won't sell. Who would they sell that fight to? the 345K people that watch BET? LOL most of those people won't even shell out money for a PPV fight.

GGG is the A-side and he's choosing to wait for Cotto/Canelo, simple.

Ward, who got beat out by women's soccer and F1 qualifying (not the actual race, but the qualifying ) needs to get in back of the line and build himself back up.

Go to HBO, fight Fonfara, Pascal, and Kovalev.

When is the cotto or canelo fight looming? You said cotto will never fight him. Canelo surely isn't going to fight him if the Cotto fight falls through.

No GGG/ward isn't a ppv. Niether ward nor GGG are PPV stars. The fight can and should be done on regular HBO. Yes he is the a side. So make a fight with ward.
