    Froch hadn't fought in a year and was on the verge of retirement for a long time. Of course you guys think everybody is ducking GG.

      HBO was prepared to make Golovkin/Chavez and Golovkin/Froch ppv's. At no point in Ward's career have his fights ever been considered for a ppv.

        Exactly HOW many PPVs has Bum-love-kin sold?

        Why would Ward take the short end of the stick against a guy who's in a lower pay grade? WTF kind of sense does that make?

        Exactly HOW many PPVs has Bum-love-kin sold? And, as far as viewers are concerned, Ward has done better numbers than has the Triple Duck...

        So why does Ward's promoter pay him more than what Bum-love-kin's promoter pays the Triple Duck? Why is the Triple Duck "underpaid"?

          Shame he had to go out like that, ducking the unproven hypejob. Remember those embarrassing quotes of his? They were from last year, after Chavez backed down and GGG's sights turned to Froch, fresh of his most glorious win.

            GGG is the problem , he or his management or both dont want the fight but they want to appear they do in the media for the fanboys , its the most dangerous fight GGG can have and will pop the invincible bubble , its a fight GGG and Team are systematically ducking .

              That's my point. He's done little in a few years but wants something he hasn't proven he still deserves.

              Well that's the last relevant comparison. Ward was off a year and did better ratings against Rodriguez than Golovkin did in his much hyped fight with Geale which completely bombed.
              Now what's he proven since then? Him being a draw in 2013 doesn't mean he's a draw in 2015. Golovkin peaked at almost 1.5 mil against Monroe, almost 1.6 mil against Stevens and 1.3 mil average, etc.

              If he was drawing 1.2 mil in 2015, then sure, even with the few hundred thousand difference, 50/50 could be fine. But last time he did that was 2 years ago...

                But Ward can certainly cash bigger paychecks than the Triple Duck...

                  Doesn't matter if the fights haven't happened yet, Dirk made a comment about GGG not being relevant when he's the world best middleweight , Ranked #4 pound for pound, one of the biggest stars in boxing, and lined up for mega fights.

                  The guy career is fine and just haters being haters. His resume is good not his fault that haters don't want to acknowledge it.

                    Last time he did that was 2 years ago, yes the last time he was on HBO. If fights from 2 years ago don't count why'd you bring up the Stevens fight?

                      The FACT remains, Genius.

                      WARD IS THE HIGHER PAID FIGHTER.

                      What is it about this simple FACT you GolovIdiots FAIL to comprehend?
