Comments Thread For: Golovkin on Andre Ward: I Want Him, 50-50 on Weight

GGG doesn't want the fight.....

GGG doesn't want to fight Ward because he knows in his heart the outcome. When you watch the Super 6 tournament everyone saw what Ward was really about and nobody wants that action right now except for probable Kovalev because he's a pretty big LHW. It's strange how he'll fight Froch and Chavez who are big SMW but not Ward. However he's will to fight Mayweather whose a small WW. Makes no sense and I like GGG but he should fight Lara and that would silence a lot of people also.

Can Lara fight on HBO? Has there been any movement on that front? Have Lara's people contacted HBO or K2 in the attempt to set up a fight? Has Haymon given his blessing to one of his stars to fight on HBO? Are you simply just another troll who I should put on my ignore list because you are demonstrating your ignorance by ignoring the hundreds of posts answering you comment about Lara in the past?

So many questions, none of which you seem able to answer.

Dirk Diggler UK has posted plenty of times videos of Loeffler stating that a Lara fight is possible. Stop using excuses.

Froch & Chavez Jr at 168 but Ward at 164 A side doe

actually you are ignorant right now because you dont want to face the truth. He is right, most of GGG haters are Mayweather's and Ward's fans(and since Cotto has mw belt his fans became GGG haters too)

And the pac lovers hate Mayweather and Ward. And you guys know youre being hypocrites about all the crap you talked about floyd and now youre paying for it

Lemieux attracts fans, Ward - draw backwards, actually repulses fans. So yes, a fight against Lemieux would be a bigger fight, more people live, more viewers at home, more money, than a Ward fight.

So why don't they make GGG vs Lemieux a PPV fight???

Is there any reliable information about the probability of setting up the Lemieux fight? I mean other than those GBP interested rumours...

Tune your reading comprehension a bit. I did not claim that you fit that mold, I stated that MOST GGG HATERS fit that mold. And I will stand by that. You are still being ignorant by bringing up points that have been explained and refuted dozens if not hundreds of times in the past. You are asking the same questions and expecting different answers. That is a sign of insanity if nothing else. The answers will not change. A Froch or Chavez Jr. fight would have been PPV at the time, Ward was not, is not, and for the foreseeable future will not be, a PPV event. There is less money in a Ward fight than there is in any MW unification fight for Golovkin.

Expecting any different answers to that is being foolish in not outright ****** or simply trolling for a reaction which I have now provided you and which you did not like. So stop being so ****ing ignorant and you will not be treated as such.

Again, when has GGG EVER been in a PPV to demand only "PPV" fighters?

[Barcham]

lol Barcham, you seem a bit perturbed today...If he says he will fight two other guys at 168 but not this one, its because of the level of competition. He's fighting cans and when its time to face an elite fighter, he's backing out and making excuses. If 168 is good enough against Froch and Chavez jr, whats the reason for side-steppin? In your opinion, why doesnt he extend the same challenge to Ward if it isnt about the level of competition. You've read all the booolshiat people say on here and I'm calling certain posters to task on all of the bs they've posted. Why doesnt it apply to this particular fighter?

This has been replied to dozens of times already but you continue to get it into your head. I recently removed you from my ignore list but this may put you back on it.

It's called financial reward. There was money in a Chavez Jr. fight at the time as it would have been PPV and there was money in a Froch fight as it would have been PPV in the UK and held in the UK. THERE IS NO MONEY IN A WARD FIGHT! THERE IS NO FAN INTEREST IN A WARD FIGHT. THEY HAD TO GIVE AWAY TICKETS TO HIS LAST FIGHT AND STILL COULD NOT FILL THE VENUE!!! THE GUY HAD TO FIGHT ON A TIME BUY ON BET BECAUSE THERE WAS SO LITTLE INTEREST IN HIS FIGHT.

There is more money in a unification fight with Lemieux than in a Ward fight AT THIS POINT IN TIME. If Ward is able to win a couple of fights against top contenders in the next 6 months, then there MAY be enough interest in Ward to make a fight with him a profitable venture. At the present time, however, there is not enough financial reward to balance the effort and risks involved.

Clear enough? Easy enough to understand?

[bigjavi973]

ok but explain me please why schould GGG fight Ward at 168 .Yes ,Ward , Froch and Chavez are boxers of 168 division, but they are all different boxers...
Or do you want to say that Ward , Chavez and Froch are of a same boxing level?

So you are saying that Ward has to be drained because he's the better boxer out of the bunch???

So GGG, the guy who's being "ducked" and can't get fights, is using high risk/low reward scenarios?

you guys claim Lara badly wants the GGG fight, but how come Lara's team didnt make any offer yet?

[RED REP]

To be honest it has been "STOP ducking Ward!" "Fight Ward!!" for ages and now GGG is saying lets fight he's still a coward haha. He wants to fight. Catchweight or not he wants to fight and you Ward lovers are still emotional?

Ward should take it as a compliment that GGG feels he needs a catchweight, which is basically what he's saying, he's saying lets fight, and there needs to be a catchweight because you're the division above me AND should be fighting at 175. Froch, Chavez? 168 thats fine he obviously believes he beats them relatively easily, but with Ward he asked for a fair catchweight because he knows Ward is a great, great fighter.

Why are you all mad? It's the fairest catchweight ever, GGG can make 154 and Ward won gold at 175. THINK ABOUT IT.
