GGG has NO right to negotiate terms . . .

[Publius]

. . . that's basically what you haters are saying, right? Your logic is premised on the idea that GGG is "ducking" by virtuing of DARING to negotiate terms instead of blindly submitting to whatever his opponent wants.

Apparently it is "ducking" if GGG doesn't allow Ward to get exactly what he wants. He has to fight at Ward's weight, in Ward's venue, giving Ward more money than he deserve, and most importantly on Ward's timetable (remember who "ducked" who first).

GGG is expected to give up the opportunity for two PPV fights, a lineal championship, and unification of his division all because Ward suddenly - after all these years - decides to fight again . . .

. . . and it makes GGG a coward in your eyes because he doesn't give into these petty games. Pathetic. And when the fight finally does come (which we know it will), GGG will add another good boy to his list. And what excuse will you have that time? I wonder.

He wanted to fight Froch and Chavez Jr at 168.

Yet, he wants Ward at 164.

That's not called negotiating terms, that's called ducking.

If you ladies got your way, and Ward drained for Golovkin, you'd be the first ones to cry and scream if Ward pulled that same shyt on Kovalev.

[ИATAS]

It boils down to some people wanting Golovkin to lose so that he wont beat up other fighters and/or they don't like the attention he's getting so they figure they best chance of that happening is moving up a weight class and fighting Mr. Olympic Gold Medal Andre Ward. Of course these same people haven't been going on a rampage over the years demanding Ward moves up in weight, but that's a different story.

The problem for them is that Golovkin is a middleweight and he's got a couple good fights coming up (unification with Lemieux and of course Team GGG are anticipating a fight for the WBA/IBF/WBC/Lineal against Canelo following that) so they'll just have to wait. In the meantime, perhaps these people should demand Ward take on Kovalev since Gennady isn't available? Or would that be asking too much for the guy who's been at 168 his entire career and beat everyone there is to beat at 168?

If you ladies got your way, and Ward drained for Golovkin, you'd be the first ones to cry and scream if Ward pulled that same shyt on Kovalev.

Now all of a sudden they want Ward to go up to 175 for Kovalev, then drain himself back down to 168 to fight Golovkin.

Fuc* terms. Best fight the best.

It's alright groupies. We see the fear in his team, himself and his fans. Kov, unlike ggg, is a man. Y'all should hop on his bandwagon

No. Fans want Golovkin to fight a worthy challenger to justify the hype.

Same thing happened to Garcia for Matthyse, Broner with Maidana, Brook with Porter, the list goes on.

Now all of a sudden they want Ward to go up to 175 for Kovalev, then drain himself back down to 168 to fight Golovkin.

And yet that's what people want Golovkin to do. Fight Ward at 168, fight Cotto/Canelo winner at 160 (or more likely below...).

By ducking, you mean he provided an offer. Ward said nothing, and then a few days after GGG signs up for a fight Ward begins running his mouth?

The scary thing is you are actually this deluded. Your hatred has blinded you to reality.

If you ladies got your way, and Ward drained for Golovkin, you'd be the first ones to cry and scream if Ward pulled that same shyt on Kovalev.

If titles were on the line. Why do catchweights exists?

For non-title fights between fighters in different natural weight classes.

I swear you dipwads must have just started following boxing.
