Comments Thread For: GGG's Coach: Liar Ward Needs To Become Relevant Again

[jqSide]

GGG is the one with no resume but its the accomplished fighters who have to chase him?

Seriously, whats wrong with you people???

Get real bro. No one will take a wishy washy person like Ward seriously.

Again - link to website offering 12-1 or 15-1 odds please. Best I can see is 7-1, which is much less enticing.

If you fancy Lemieux call a round or series of rounds. At Paddy Power you can get ...

Lemieux round 1 is 55-1
Lemieux round 2 is 40-1
Lem. round 3 at 50-1
Lem round 4 at 50-1
Round 5 - 55-1
6 = 66-1
Round 7 thru round 11 - 75-1
Round 12 = 90-1

The bookies basically have Lemieux with best chance of a knockout in round 2 and the longer the fight goes on the less chance he has. Not sure I agree with that. He could be behind on the cards and still score a knockout in the later rounds.

I'm not a betting man, but wouldn't mind parting with a tenner or so with those odds.

GGG fights at 160

Ward fights at 172

Kovalev fights at 175.

My questions is, why aren't Ward fanboys pushing for Ward to fight the killer in his own weight class?

Didn't he just sign a 3 fight deal with HBO at lhw ? Duva is already on record saying negotiations are going well why is most that people forget this ?

[imperial1]

BTW, when is Ward fighting a heavyweight? He did say that years ago, didnt he? Or was he kidding?

His career ain't done yet and I'm holding him to that quote just like I'm holding him to a higher standard ,his move to lhw should lead to,thenKrusher anything else is all smoke and mirrors !

All I'm saying is, I dont see any Ward fans calling for him to face Kovalev who is in the same weight division.

This thing is Floyd-Manny all over again, just on a smaller scale. GGG has picked up most Manny's blind followers, who are hardcore fight fans. And they co-sign anything this guy does, regardless of fact and/or logic.

I'm scared of needles. I need 24 days of no drug testing because giving blood makes me weak. We need to erect a temporary stadium. I got a cut over my eye that needs a year to heal. I'll fight him for free, but I won't take a career high guarantee. I'll fight anybody from 154-168. Froch at 168? Yes. Chavez Jr at 168? Yes. Ward at 168? Hell no. Fight has to be at 164. Will you leave the middleweight division to fight a 40yr old welterweight? Absolutely. Will you leave the middleweight division to fight a primed super middleweight? Na, unifying middleweight belts against C level titlist and natural jr middleweights is my goal. All kinda goes together.

True but at the same time smart money is to collect all belts and all the money on table before leaving 160. Both are older being GGG AND WARD. But they still have time to fight if Ward goes back to 168. GGG will never be 175lber.
Ward does need a boost with his inactivity. No money.
Yes boxing is about who's the best but this is also their jobs. And most never make a 50k payday much less the millions made by a select few.

I've seen the exact opposite. seems like most Ward fans can't wait for the kovalev fight. They're just willing to allow the fight to be built up while both sides show positive signs and talks before it can be made official. Looks like ME and Roc Nation have a clear understanding. It's just extreme GGG fans wanna use kovalev as a shield whenever Ward is mentioned with GGG.

Spare me your personal BS. I have nothing against GGG, its just that his resume aint worth ****. Why dont you want him to be great? Personally I want to see how great he can be.

Ive yet to see a single Ward fan who isnt on board for this fight.

I think you might be in the wrong forum.
