    1. Never leaving his hometown.
    2. Being a religious fanatic by calling himself "son of god".
    3. Gross amounts of inactivity.
    4. Headbutting.

    That about covers it.

      Jackson says Ward will be 180-185 on fight night with a height and reach advantage over GGG and is the MUCH bigger man. Even he thinks the Ward-GGG fight is a joke.

          He can think what he wants. The facts show that Ward and GGG are actually much closer in fight night weights than Ward and Kovalev.

            So what? Doesn't mean anything. Loeffler/Iksowitch had positive discussion just prior to RN/ME having positive discussions. K2/RN agreed on early 2016 and RN/ME agreed on late 2016. Ward's going to stay at 168 fighting Paul Smith's for $2mill per fight at his promoter's expense and then retire when they get sick of him.

            What fact(s)?
            • Ward only has one fight night weight on record, vs Dawson 3 years ago - September 2012 @ 176lbs.
            • One week earlier Golovkin weighed 168lbs vs Proksa.
            • On June 2013, Golovkin weighed 170lbs vs Macklin.
            • On November 2013, Kovalev weighed 181lbs vs Silakh.


            Here's your factual math:
            176 - 168 = 8lbs
            176 - 170 = 6lbs
            181 - 176 = 5lbs

            Uh oh, there's 3 facts that disprove your statement......

              Honestly, i rather see this then GGG vs Ward, to me this is more competitive. GGG i like but i think he would be at a disadvantage with Ward in size and length. Kov and Ward would be same size and Kov imo has alot more foot speed that he uses.

                Ward makes mistakes, everyone does. People act like Ward is the perfect fighter and get offended when it's said. Sergey makes his share of mistakes as well, but he'd take Ward out. Ward can't handle that kind of fighter.

                    Scared Tactic to keep him from coming up and coming after Kovalev IMO

                    Trying to put some doubt in his head I'm sure...Make no Mistake Jackson knows and Kovalev himself admits that Ward would be a Tough Fight!

                    I really don't see many flaws in that ring and vs THE BEST...WARD BRINGS HIS BEST! Look forward to that match up sometime next year!

                      Ward has made it clear he will move up to the full LHW limit to fight Kovalev. Whereas Golovkin's people have ruled themselves out of a Ward fight by demanding a puussy catchweight.

                      Kovalev weighed 189 for his last fight if I recall correctly which is 13lbs more than what Ward weighed on the night against Dawson.

                      Golovkin and Ward are closer in terms of size.
