    Demanding a 164 catchweight = we don't want the fight

      Exactly.

      And while Froch and Chavez were lucrative fights for big paydays, Andre "Hold and Headbutt" Ward can't draw flies.

      So it's not worth it for GGG. High risk, LOW reward.

      High risk of being cut and blinded by one of The Son of Goat's deliberate, illegal head butts and a shady California referee like Jack Reiss calling it a "TKO".

          He can beat everybody from 154-168......but won't fight them


          Let's cut the BS. Team Golovkin has a sweet deal with HBO where they can fight Willie Monroe level opponents and cash in. When you have that kind of deal, what's the incentive to even challenge yourself? You can maintain the excuse that everybody is ducking and keep the money flowing in.
          Kind of like Mayweather's team...they claim they can beat anyone from 147-160 yet they fight Canelo at a catchweight and wants no part of GGG at 154 only at 147.

            This fight isn't happening for a year or two unless everything else GGG has in the fire falls through.

                Doesn't really fit in with their whole "everyone is scared of GGG" mantra though, does it?

                    Not to mention Chad himself said even before that interview that he could make 168 no problem and that was his natural weight class.

                      Golovkin is acting like a b*tch. And I would root so hard to see Ward clown him if this fight ended up being made at 164.
