GGG team 154-168 offered to fight froch and Chavez jr at 168 so why change tune for wardOriginally posted by Hype job View PostLook at all these crybabies, why doesn't Ward move down for GGG? Why must GGG move up?
Face it you all just want to see him lose because of his skin tone.
164 is completely fair i've been saying this as long as this fiasco has been going on.
Why must GGG move up for Ward and not vice versa?

Golovkin is the bigger star? Stop.Originally posted by Eastcoast View PostHow is a 50 split fair? Golovkin's the bigger name, he's the one giving up the size. Ward just lost his promoter $2mill on his last fight.
This is an opening negotiation tacit, if Ward doesn't budge on the money the fight doesn't happen at 168.

Frame-wise, Hopkins was a big MW. He started his career at LHW. But he was also dedicated and lived a clean life and always kept his weight low between fights. He talked in depth with Maxboxing with Doug Fischer before the Trinidad fight about how he had to work to keep his weight low.Originally posted by jas View PostHopkins wasn't a big mw
He moved up 2 weights to fight tarver

You really want to debate that?Originally posted by Kagami Taiga View PostGolovkin is the bigger star? Stop.
Maybe if Ward hadn't taken the last 2 years off he's still have some momentum from the S6. Golovkin just sold over 12k seats in LA vs an unknown fighter. Ward couldn't sell 8k in his own hometown vs the LHW champ of the world. And Golovkin still edged Ward in tv numbers for those respective fights.

Ward was at 173 nearly three weeks before the fight with Paul Smith; getting down that ten pounds would've been a pain in the ass and likely do some damage, but it's not like it'd be impossible.Originally posted by .:: JSFD26 ::. View PostWard can't drop to no ****ing 164 dude. What are you smoking? Ward is contemplating 175 and now they wanna talk about a cw?
Ward's smart enough to not fall into that bull**** though.
