    oh wait smith came in at 176 some shit like that
    Therefore it is easy for Ward to fight Kovalev, then.

      I understand this. But it's still a catchweight that was used to his advantage. Will you give him another pass when he fights another BUM? I have never heard of a champion needing more than one tune up fight...

        uh... yea... What does that have to do with GGG wanting a catchweight for the Ward fight but not for Froch & Chavez Jr?

        Ya Bumlovkin groupies seriously gotta stop deflecting.

        "he was just joking doe"

          That's how they will be referred to from now on. This new era of fan tards was birthed on May 3, 2015.

            How was letting a career 168 lbr fight nearly ten lbs above used as an advantage for Ward? I gotta hear this.....

            As for his tune up(s)... we'll see what happens when it gets there. I don't like jumping to conclusions.

              Okay, I'm honestly not trying to troll here. Ward asked the guy to come up 4 pounds from his normal weight (168). Why would Ward do this when he has been a career 168lber? He most likely thought he would have trouble making weight, and wanted to come in as the naturally bigger guy (advantage).

              Ward had no idea the guy would come in way over weight, he said as much. And the guy came in fat and flabby. Maybe he didn't train as hard knowing he didn't have to cut as much weight, I don't know. But it was clearly a cherry pick and he gets a pass cause it was a "tune up".

              I just think Gennady gets unnecessary hate from fans. He wants to fight the best and fight 4 times a year. I am enjoying the run he is on and wish more fighters were like him.

                Well for sure there is no reply from Ward the Turd. There is no counter offer, no demands nothing. Just pure silence... Very self explanatory....

                  Why are GGGs trying to deflect the attention of Loffler's bitc-hassness by bringing up Floyd vs Canelo and Ward vs Dawson?

                    What worse, that Andre Ward will face LHW's like Agnew or Oosthuizen at 168 or MW's like Caleb Truax at 168?

                    “It would be a struggle to move down to 168, but I would do it to face Ward. I think he should move up to 175 to take me on because everyone would see it as a tune-up for Kovalev as he switches weight classes, but I doubt he will. He knows I’m not worth the risk,” said Agnew.

                    “That was not a bout I saw myself in at the time. My promoter sent me the text about it and my heart just about stopped. I definitely am honored to be in that conversation, but at the same time that’s a bad boy. I’m not ready to move up a weight class and take on the #2 pound-for-pound guy in the world. That’s something I need to work my way up to. So right now we’re just sticking at middleweight and hopefully win a title in the next two or three fights,” Truax respectfully states.

                      I don't know what he's waiting on. It's already been a few hours since this offer was made.
