Comments Thread For: Andre Ward-Gennady Golovkin Roadblocked Over Weight

[Hype job]

a few weeks ago you dudes was saying Ward couldn't make 168 because of the 172 cw fight he had against Smith....NOW he can make 164?!?....just say that you don't wanna see Mister 164 get beaten up and handed his first "L".....simple, it saves a lot of you from sounding crazy

He said he'd do 160 for Floyd why not 164 for GGG?

You guys say there's only a few pounds between them come fight night so why would making 164 be such a big deal?

c'mon man....Floyd threw verbal shots at Ward and Ward sarcastically responded with dropping down to 160 to fight him...did you see his facial expression when he said that?!?....he wasn't serious about that at all

Of course he could easily make 164. All he has to do is cut water weight. What's Ward's fight night weight, like 176? Or is it... more? Cutting 12 pounds is nothing for a boxer, unless they weigh a lot more.

Canelo typically cuts 15+ pounds
Ronda Rhousey is a smaller person and she cut 17 pounds in 1 day
JCC Jr cuts 100+ pounds every time he fails to make weight
etc.

Not a big deal, right? Going up in weight is a lot harder. It's 100x harder to gain muscle mass.

Ward should just take this. He's not the A-side, and he's not even a big name draw, yet Golovkin is offering him 50/50 to make an easily manageable weight...

okay man!!...whatever you say LMAO

Essentially, Team GGG is implying that Ward isn't worth the risk.

[Fetta]

Wow this is still going!!!

GGG dont want it right now and may never want it.

AS long as both start fighting top comp im ok.

[Brickyardigan]

GGG doesn't want to fight.. it's obvious and it's just what it is. Everyone resume life with this understanding .

[SUBZER0ED]

That sums it up perfectly. I'd Green K you but it won't let me.

Thanks, bro. I think they cap how much green k one can get for one post.

Everyone who campaigns in the "super or junior" divisions is looking for a weight advantage. The idea of these "inbetween" weights was for up and coming "growing" fighters to campaign at fairly!!!

With Ward & GGG weights it doesn't get any easier than...164....!


Lets go TEN rounds too since Ward can't make 160 and doesn't own any title!

Can we just consolidate all GGG/Ward threads? They are by far the most traffic producing topics. Sick of seeing so many.
