im not even talking about the GGG fight, that was a publicity stunt, ive said the same from day 1 it would never happen due to size difference the same way he was mouthing off about klitschko
im saying in general Ward has no bargaining power nowadays
kovalev should give him table scraps and make him go to russiaComment

Double Standard
They were not gonna wait around for him.
Ward had done that too himself. You can't expect them to wait around.
So how is Ward's offer any better. GGG has two big fights planned in the time Ward offer was for.
Ward wants them to sign for 50/50 for a fight that 16 months away.
Stop it.
If those roles were reversed, you know exactly were you would be.Comment

Bam! See, you have that double Standard
However, GGG was coming down to were Floyd held belts.
Ward wouldn't supposedly meet half way.
GGG made weight at 157 his last fight, 3 pounds above 154.
However, I don't see the Floyd/GGG fight being useful for GGG.
For Floyd, it could be epic.
But he doesn't need it.
Besides, GGG didn't call out Floyd. He answered a question.
They are not actively sending Floyd contracts to fight in 14 months.Last edited by Progrssive_Jedi; 10-09-2015, 05:44 PM.Comment

however if you want me to play devils advocate, gennady barely cuts to make 160 and could probably make 154 with ease which would mean the bigger fighter was coming down and floyd's catchweight-via-154 titles would put them in the same weight division, right?
but no, his 154 title was a joke and the idea of a ggg-floyd fight was a jokeComment

Now they keep switching excuses, then Team Golovkin tried to scare Ward off with that catchweight demand.
There is nothing to indicate they want that fight.
Listen to how Duva talks when referring to Kovalev/Ward, and compare that to Laughler/Sanchez when they discuss Ward.
Duva refers to him positively as a certain future opponent, and yet Golovkins crowd refer to Ward like he has ebola
I dont hear Team Kovalev stuttering excuses like Team Golovkin.Comment

Ok, Hunter said Ward would be HW champ by now
i never thought that fight would happen either, it didn't even warrant serious discussion, just publicity stunt

Before that, all they talked about was " anyone from 154-168 ", and they were mentioning Froch and Chavez.
Now they keep switching excuses, then Team Golovkin tried to scare Ward off with that catchweight demand.

Ok, so Hunter (Ward's trainer) said Ward would be HW champ by now.
Are you saying Ward now has to fight Wladimir Klitschko if he calls on him. And do it now.
Oh, because it was Abel who made the 154-168 comment.
Besides, that comments doesn't mean you have to fight the one who wants it, when he wants it.
GGG has bigger fights ahead of him.
He was never gonna fight the loser Lara, or wait for Ward to figure out he lost in court.Comment

What grave? He's unifying on HBO ppv, selling out Msg, is mando to Canelo/Cotto. Has an Apple ad ffs. Damn you're dumb. You should be concerned for the guy that gets 300k viewers on basic cable, and is taking months to decide on an HBO deal cause they don't wanna pay for tuneups vs scrubsComment

No one says Ward is unproven.
You think that silly tactic works.
Roy Jones JR is proven, but he too doesn't deserve a fight against GGG.
Years away has decimated any fan base Ward once had.
And GGG wanted to fight him when they needed big fights, Ward said NO!
Now GGG has big things, Ward wants to fight him next fall.
Sorry truckers, that ship sailed.
Ward doesn't get to call the shots, because GGG doesn't need him.
Hence why Ward was begging for the fight.
Your dumb if you think GGG is scared of Ward.
He is just about getting his due, all the belts.
Ward offers little in the way of this goal.
Naw, that would take them using critical thinking.
They didn't take that class.
One good name would be nice.Comment
