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

[-MEGA-]

They're both picking and choosing. Neither have the pull to call the shots when facing a top bill. Both failed to get their Chavez Jr matchup, because neither are "A side".

Ward is and will be the "A" side to BBB side

Why not? Please explain your babble.

A side doesn't give away advantages so easily. Don't be naive.

[Najuk]

Wards in prime position to pick and choose and that's just what he's doing. Meanwhile GGG doesn't even have a say in his own division

thats why Ward is begging for GGG fight

Keep dreaming. They're about equal in terms of promoter pull.

Andre Ward: “I Can Beat a Klitschko”

Andre Ward "I'll fight anyone at 168 and 175"

you do know once ward move up to 175 he not coming back down
so now 164 is between 168 and 175 right

Begging??? More like calling BBB sides bluff...



Yall just can't handle it.

GGG said that when he first came to the US and before he had even had one fight. It was a statement to get some publicity and interest going in a fighter new to the US boxing scene. Later on, that statement was amended to state that he would move to another division only for a PPV fight.

Why 166? 164 is directly between 160 and 168 and as there would be no titles on the line, it would make perfect sense.

I have never heard him say he'd fight anyone between 154 to 168 unless it was closely followed or preceded by "big PPV fight"

And 164 isn't happening, it's unrealistic.

They can move up for Froch and Chavez but not Ward

They can drain Ward to 164 but will not go down to 154 for anyone but Floyd

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.

chavez froch and mayweather brought substantial purses which made the moves up or down worth the risk

not hard to understand really

That's your answer? Ok, moving on now.
