    Golovkin facing Ward ****s on Floyd's whole resume

    Who on Floyd's resume was a prime p4p quality champion? He has nobody on it as good as Ward. It's full of past-prime and green future titlists. I'd rather they fight at 160 or 168, but two champs fighting at a catch-weight is reasonable.

    It doesn't **** on Floyds Resume, but Ward is better than Any Fighter Mayweather has ever faced.

      facing him means nothing. he would have to actually beat him for it to count towards something. and not at 164 either.

        Beating Ward would be a much bigger win than any individual win of Mayweather's, but no GGG would still not be shixtting on Mays resume.

            This.

            Ward is a gold medalist, undefeated champ, and has faced fantastic opponents. If Golovkin fights Ward and wins... I think Golovkin deserves much respect from the doubters/haters

              Pacquiao >>> Ward. Doesn't matter which version of Pac it was. Pac is simply the much harder and greater fighter to prepare for, and beat.

                  Diego Corrales was in his prime, in the top 5 P4P and was a world champion.

                  So by defintion he was a "Prime P4P wa quality Champion".

                  Ricky Hatton also fits that defintion.

                    Floyd nuthugger detected. Beating Ward now would absolutely be a better win than post KTFO Pacquiao. Context definitely matters. Ward is still a monster and honestly I fully expect him to be the favorite.
