    Trying to make a point with a video from a year and a half ago. Talk about grasping at straws.

        BTW - Ward opened that cut on Paul Smith with a headbutt in like the 4th round (just like the Kolle fight).
        ward should have half his purse taken away for holding butting elbowing etc. I wish smith had plaster in his gloves to counter mental ward

          July 2014. Almost a full year before Ward fought Smith.
          Its the same thing you were explained dozens of times but it never sinks in, go figure. Both guys would want a good chunk but its not ppv so not feasible. Hell just Wards purse would be beyond Hbos budget. Notice he said Ggg was offered a big chunk from Chavez' people, 2.5m guarantee or just under 30%.

            But what had Golovkin done to deserve a huge chunk of the purse?

              Lets see: stayed very active, destroyed 5 Ring top tenners in 2 years, excellent ratings and live gate, p4p rated himself, Ring readers Foty, got offered a "huge chunk" from biggest star above 154 for ppv. Shortly thereafter got #1 active Smw, p4p rated Froch to issue those infamous quotes, and sent him into retirement

                Why ask GGG to go up or down in weight class? If Cotto (who was a great fighter as a welterweight before the cement glove incident) doesn't want to fight GGG he should give up his middleweight title. Chavez Jr didn't want GGG even though his promoter did. I agree he's untested because no one wants to fight him.
