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

[mabulkhair]

Wards fights on HBO drew 1.2 and 1.3 million you clown.

He did draw 1.3 with chad you are right but that was in 2012. His fight against Smith generated and peaked. At 323000 viewers that's bismal bro.

In modern boxing you definitely become the A side because your popular. It's all about numbers and viwership and sadly not about resumes. If you want to compare resumes...yes no doubt Ward puts GGG resume to shame but Ward has been inactive and GGG is getting anywhere from 1.1 to 1.24 mil viewers almost quadruple Wards numbers.

I don't know about Wards viewership with the Paul Smith fight. But he drew 1.3 million with his fight with Dawson. On HBO.

Now I'm not going to say that GGG's popularity hasn't eclipsed Wards, but I don't think there is a big enough gap between the two for anybody to be calling themselves the "A" side in this fight.

Why doesnt ward just go up and beat kovalev. He is that great why choose to fight a smaller guy. Let ggg fight cotto, canelo, lemuix, maybe quillen, jacobs. Then ward

Why do you want GGG To fight Floyd then?

His last fight wasn't on HBO, you can't compare numbers from different channels.

Not a good look at all. Getting a bit frustrating at this point.

Using Golovkins logic a Mayweather fight should be. 90/10 money, 90/10 weight. Mayweather-Golovkin at 148.3 CW.

More like 98/2. When the winner of canelo cotto. demand a catchweight with ggg he better accept

You and the other GGG groupies that bring up the ratings during the time GGG was super active and Ward was semi retired are morons. Grade A morons. It doesnt matter what ratings they draw against nobodies or what have you. A fight between the two of them will do great ratings, and thats all that matters. GGG isnt a A side, and Ward wouldnt be a A side, thats why Ward said both both teams should come in with clear heads and make a deal. You and the other people making excuses for GGG are nothing but cheerleaders and fangirls and should be ashamed. Have dignity you freaking chump.

Once again we have a run away fan who's way out of his lane . May I ask what percentage your receiving from Ward or GGG's views ? THEN WHY DO U GIVE A F..k ? Your only concern should be to see this fight like the rest of us . If your on here talking about views , ratings , A-side/B-side , who deserves what percentage of the purse , then u must be a GGG fan looking to excuse his Duck Sauce !
