    You mean he's more skilled at fighting bums? Which is it?

      Loeffler had been negotiating with Oscar to get Lemieux for weeks, maybe months, and the deal was already done when Ward "came knocking", you morons.

        GGG fans were the same fans screaming for guys like Danny Garcia and Broner to move up multiple divisions to "challenge themselves." So now it's time to take your medicine.

          Name 10 great fighters who never moved up.
          Off the top of my head, Hagler, Pep, Monzon. There are more like Bob Foster who shouldn't have.


          Hopkins did get heat, but he also got a lot of credit fighting smaller guys like DLH and Trinidad.

            That's clearly a lie. Not one single fan demanded that Broner should move up. Same thing with DG. And in Garcia's case they even want him to stay for a Matthysse rematch, then Herrera. They moved up on their own volition.

              It'd been going on for months when Oscar said the fight wasn't going to happen til next year? So GGG had no interest in the Ward fight and he was never looking to make it, it was all smoke and mirrors like people have been saying? (Ward) I fail to see where GGG gets credit for taking a fight as a 14-1 favorite. That's on par with Mayweather/Berto matchmaking, Floyd is a 18-1 favorite there.

              But hey, he is GGG. His fans ignore these things like calling out 168, it was all dream now.

                That's an even bigger lie.

                  Broner was fighting small dudes and the fans just asked him to move up to fight men his size.

                  GGG is already fighting fighters his size( and bigger) so there's no reason him to move up.

                    I got no problems with guys sticking with one weight class... They just better take on all comers within that division..

                    Hopkins did that... Ggg is on his way

                      Nonsense. Nobody demanded that Broner should fight Thurman, not Alexander, Porter, not Peterson at 140, not Berto. Guerrero accepted his challenge and he cherrypicked Malignaggi, instead. Same story with Garcia. There was no huge demand to see him at the higher weights. You don't expect Garcia to fight Thurman next, do you? Or Brook. I got 1 trillion points to yours. Tell me if you want it.
