Comments Thread For: Golovkin's Promoter: Ward Should Unify, Stop Obsessing!

[NEETzsche]

GGG fans can spin and scream about unifying belts all they want. Which right now means Lemieux, Cotto, Lee. But as it stands right now, beating Andre Ward at 168lb does 100x more for his legacy than all of those fights combined. And if Cotto and Lee their upcoming fights. Beating Canelo and Saunders still comes up way short of an Andre Ward win. Feel free to spin all you want. But my post is 100% fact. And any real fight fan knows it.

fighting alvarez or cotto provides more enjoyment for more people than fighting ward would

Social media, NSB, and any other boxing site, this is the biggest foght that can be made.

NSB is seriously underestimating how popular Ward is.

Ward is a nobody when will you just accept it?
JCC Jr and Carl Froch = Both PPV fights
Ward = Not a PPV fight

There is zero chance, especially now that Golovkin is taking the PPV leap, that Golovkin/Ward is on normal HBO. That's a guaranteed PPV.

He's about to fight David Lemieux on PPV. Clearly a Ward fight would be PPV, too.

The question you should be asking is : What is triple V known for ? Since he's not known for any of the cans he knocked over . Clearly he's really only known for his bold Ward declaration which now you and many others have happily issued passes for him to back out of , while u continue to claim u don't know why he needs a pass . my question to u is this , if u don't know why he needs a pass , THEN WHY THE F..K ARE U GIVING HIM ONE ?

Got any proof of this so called "Bold Ward Declaration", or are you just talking nonsense again?

Not so much underestimating as being willfully ignorant in hope that Ward vanishes for some reason.

I don't understand how this isn't crystal clear to everyone. GGG has only been relevant in America for a couple years. But, he's been a beltholder for 5+. When he made his move over here, it was under the marketing of "anybody from 154-168." I'm not gonna pretend that I sure boxing sites all day and bird dawg social media to see what fighters are up to. But in 5yrs+ as a beltholder, I never heard a peep about unification until Ward came calling.

because it usually goes without saying that boxers prefer to fight in their actual weight class

It would be PPV because GGG name-sake not because of Ward who would be clinging onto the hype and entertainment Golovkin has provided.

because some of his fans hate to admit that fighters change when they get to the top of the rung. they want GGG to be the anti Floyd when he is actually the kazak Floyd.

Difference is, Floyd spent nearly a decade earning his stripes to get in a position of become a shot caller. Same holds true with Manny and Cotto. GGG hasn't done a damn thing in the boxing ring to warrent acting like a diva. This guy is basically the pre-Maidana Adrien Broner. Difference being the pre-Maidana AB's resume was arguably better. And AB at least had a willingness to step outta his comfort zone to seek out better comp.

How is GGG acting like a diva in wanting to unify?
