and GGG fans should have NO problem with that especially when GGG is willing to fight Chavez Jr & Froch at the full 168.Comment

I would want to unify all the titles at MW against JMW's too if I was GGG. Are you saying he would somehow be unable to do this by fighting ward? That's your reasoning?Ward is at the top of the sport? One fight in two years against an out of shape, overweight, untrained blob puts him at the top of the sport? PLEASE!
Golovkin wants to unify all the titles at MW. Ward is not a middleweight. Ward is inconsequential to GGG's primary goal. Beating him does nothing for GGG's reputation at all and could cause him difficulties in achieving his primary goal. Ward should be kept for AFTER GGG has unified all the titles at MW.Comment

So why the hell do Team GGG keep bringing up Ward's name? What about "being willing" to fight anyone for 154-168?Because Golovkin has stated very clearly, and only idiots cannot get it into their heads, that his primary interest is in unifying all the titles at the middleweight division, the division he has fought at his entire professional career and the division for which he is naturally suited for. He also has stated that he has no interest in winning titles at any other weight class. Why is it that some ignorant people cannot respect what the best middleweight fighter to come along in years has set as his personal goal?Comment

Who cares about a dumb title, catchweights are catchweights. GGG and team said to line up anyone from 154-168 and we'll fight them and when someone called there bluff they scrambled. GGG will go down to 154/55 for Floyd but not up for Ward, ok.Cotto was defending a MIDDLEWEIGHT LINEAL TITLE AGAINST A MIDDLEWEIGHT CONTENDER. Golovkin would be moving up to an entirely new weight class to fight a man who many consider the best boxer in the game. Are you such a ****ing idiot that you are unable to see the difference in those two situations or are you just an ignorant prick? I think you are probably both.Comment

No way!!!
He would get all the credit i can give.
Career defining win, as long as he doesnt go back to Monroes.
As of right now im a fan of GGG but he keeps looking back instead of forwardComment

It's called MONEY. A PPV fight. Something a Ward fight would not bring to the table at this time. If a boxer is going to move from his division and put his career at risk he should be rewarded accordingly for it. No one is claiming any different. It is only Ward fans who think he brings a lot of money to the table. So much money that his last fight was a time buy on BET in front of a crowd where about half of the people got their tickets for free.because he was willing to drop those goals in a second for a fight with floyd, froch or chavez jr. why don't gullible groupies like you just admit this.
when will you accept the fact GGG is no different than a lot of top draws-he will do anything to get a big money fight and will avoid those high risk/low reward fight until he gets the big fights so hi earnings (and those of his team/promoter/network) are maximized.
FFS stop the pretending that he is some throwback pro with 150 fights fighting top contenders every 2 weeks.
Ward brings nothing to the table at this point in time and he is the one who needs GGG and Kovalev, they do not need him.Comment

at the rate thats going he be 50 before any of the other champs fight himBecause Golovkin has stated very clearly, and only idiots cannot get it into their heads, that his primary interest is in unifying all the titles at the middleweight division, the division he has fought at his entire professional career and the division for which he is naturally suited for.
