Comments Thread For: Golovkin's Coach: Andre Ward Must Go to 164 or No Fight

[Vasyl’s dad]

"We will take all comers from 154 to 168" I heard GGG's coach say some time ago.

Ward, "I'll come to 160 for Floyd".

OK, GGG is waiting.

GGG was willing to fight Froch at 168 but he will only fight award at 164????? Sounds fishy. He knows that award will expose his robotic simple style and beat him. I hope it isn't for Ward's title.

Mandalay Bay, Las Vegas - Abel Sanchez, trainer of WBA/IBO middleweight champion Gennady 'GGG' Golovkin, has made it absolutely clear that he's not going to budge from his position that a potential fight with Andre Ward will only happen if Ward - the recognized champion at super middleweight - is wiling to meet them halfway at a catch-weight of 164-pounds.

Golovkin and his team received more than their fair share of heat in recent days, after placing a catch-weight demand on a potential fight with Ward. The reason for the heat, is because Golovkin was willing to fight both Carl Froch and Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. at the full super middleweight limit.

GGG stuck between a rock (Lemeuix) and a very hard place (Ward) . He has no other options for his next fight so Lemeuix should either purse-drain his ass ( (70/30) or let him walk into the lions den (Ward)

It does not matter if Lemeuix "purse drain" GGG. He brings the belt.

30 Stoppages of no names who haven't even made as much as a trickle since they lost to golovkin much less a wave. And he actually struggled with a few of those fighters some that were legitimate 154 pounders. Bottom line the guy hasn't fought anyone. Monroe was exposing him until he just decided to quit. Ward has beaten the best and toughest in his division. Dangerous fighters who were tested and proven themselves. Who has golovkin faced? The limited bleeder rosado? The one dimensional left hooker stevens? A faded kassim ouma? Who all I might add had their moments in their fights with golovkin. Fights that were more competitive than even golovkin anticipated. But these were c and b level fighters.

And after this bolded part you think a single soul will take you seriously?

GGG fans be like: GGG beat Willie Monroe doe! Monroe > Mayweather doe

Nobody ever said that, you muppet.

GGG is using the risk vs reward business model because he isnt sure he can beat Ward at his best.

Its really not any more complicated then that.

The only question is why dont his fans just admit it?

Lol all this talk from GGG and his team about how Ward was nothing and GGG had no respect for Ward as man. I guess that makes GGG a straight up b1tch

Yes he has no respect for ward, he even said Ward is not a man. And what can Ward do?nothing.
I bet if GGG would talk **** about Ward's family Ward's response would still be like" come to 168 and i ll beat you"lol

... I didn't mind GGG and his team spinning Ward off a little -- the guy thinks he can do everything he wants to... as he wants to, when he wants to...

... But I just found out that Sanchez blocked a Lara fight, as Haymon seems to have agreed upon... And this one I don't like it at all...

What do you want me to admit? That GGG is not sure whether he can beat Ward? How do I know what he is sure of?

Why you haters just can't wait until GGG cleans out 160 and then goes further to other weight division? Well I know why. Because you want him to lose so badly, that's why you want him to fight number two p4p the undisputed champ at 168 RIGhT NOw!!!
