    Wow two fights in a calendar year Ward needs to be careful that he doesn't burn out.

      Yes. Golovkin's style attracts fans. 9,300 people didn't pay to see Golovkin fight Rubio or 12,500 pay to see him fight Monroe, or 8,500 to see him fight Geale, just because some internet reporters asked Golovkin about Ward and Golovkin said sure when I'm done with MW. Golovkin does better gate & tv against low-name fighters like those then Ward did vs Dawson and Froch.

      Ward has to pack fights with comp'd tickets in his own hometown and only 323k bothered to watch him on national tv, nobody gives a **** about Ward because his style is not exciting. Andre Ward's the one waiting on Golovkin because he needs to fight someone exciting in order for anyone to care about his fights.

        It can't be because of the cans because I just got hammered last night and knocked over 25 cans afterwards (and they were Budweiser) but no one said sh.t about it , no one cared !

          And this would be Andre Ward, a proven commodity, as the co-main for a huge PPV fight. It's nothing but a good thing for Ward and will bypass a lot of the work he will otherwise have to put in to reestablish himself.
          Only a ****** would believe something as ****** as this. Top Rank gave Rigo every chance he just has no fan base, is boring as hell and can't sell ****. Just like Ward because of their safety first style, they will never be able to bring the money they think they deserve. And because of this time will pass and they'll just keep making themselves irrelevant in boxing no matter how good they are.

              Ward should fight a bunch of cans too, just like GGG. If he knocks out one Paul Smith after another he'll look like a monster and all the idiot, no-nothing fans will jump on his bandwagon.

              Then again he doesn't have the right skin color for some of them so this might not work.

                      They aren't. I like fighters of all different races and nationalities. Check my thread history if you don't believe it.

                      The same can't be said about certain Ward haters. The venom he draws despite being a classy, well spoken gentleman says it all.
