Comments Thread For: Roc Nation: GGG's Team Turned Down Ward in 36 Minutes

[HeroBando]

Don't worry Lil G just like your team is using every excuse for you not to fight Ward. I'll be laughing when Oscar n Golden Boy tell your team to f~uk off Canelo won't be fighting you for another 2 or so yrs, hahaha... If you refuse to fight the best then you will never be recognize as the best so stop running and fight Ward. The Great Ones are the ones that "Dare to be Great" so far Golovkin has shown he's happy fighting past their prime fighters like Geale n Macklin or ESPN fighters like Monroe n Stevens ��

How did Ward become great? By beating Froch in NJ? GGG offered to face Froch at 168 in the UK. Too bad Froch didn't want it, cause it would have been better than Wards career best win

The Kazakh sensation has admitted he is eyeing up a potential showdown with one of the iconic fighters and when asked whether he could make the requisite weight limit of 154 pounds, he provided an emphatic answer, per Luis Sandoval of fighthype.com:

“Absolutely.” said the undefeated star. “This is business. I understand; this is boxing business. It’s not a lot of weight to lose. My last fight, I’m 58. I’m not big guy.”

Ok so it's in black and white .....but it's not stopped and there is no more talk about it...golovkin what I see is not talking about the pacquaios or mayweathers now......unlike ward who keeps harping on about gennady golovkin....he won't shut up...ward has enough fighters in his own division to worry about....the kovalevs, the beterbievs, the stevensons, you never answered me what weight ward is fighting at...please divulge

"Right now Andre Ward is the best pound-for-pound fighter in the world" Really? With Ward's inactivity over the last two years he is the best pound-for-pound fighter in the world? For making that statement concerning Andre Ward, I say that Michael Yormark is either a fool or a liar - especially as Paul Smith has been Ward's only opponent in the last twenty-three months (23).

GGG , in actuality has been much more inactive than Ward in the last few years because despite Ward fighting sporadically , GGG has only been sparring .

the search engines were to talk about how serious ppl took the fight, you brought ratings, that defines popularity on who watches the fight....try harder

I don't get what this clown is saying. So the GGG vs Mayweather is more popular, but it didn't happen. And you expect something less popular to happen? What am I missing? Is Mayweather going to fight GGG eventually?

[youbeight]

What question? I was just laughing at you for bringing up search stats, then whining about popularity, w

well obviously you can't read so ill explain again, the search engine is based off news articles, interviews and video links, theres no real relation to popularity because if there was ggg ward is 28k ggg lemieux is 30k and ggg cotto is 23k in search engines, so that means the popularity like YOU described to be part of the search engines makes ggg lemieux just as popular and ggg vs ward and more popular than ggg vs cotto, and that does not work in YOUR argument. hence the reason I said search engines have to do with the seriousness of the matchup, and that ratings determine the popularity of the fight. only sad part is i don't consider boxing a popularity sport bc i rather the best vs the best. so maybe next time you'll let your head cool off before you post.

I'm not going to bother reading the horse **** article because facts are facts.
Golovkin is fighting next week on PPV.
No one knows when Ward is fighting again lol

it had zero to do with popularity, someone said no one took mayweather GGG seriously even though it generated more news headlines and interviews in the boxing world than GGG other matchups, if its not serious or even a consideration, media outlets wouldnt have spent time talking about the potential matchup, however popularity to me based off tv ratings and ppv bc that determines who's actually watching the fight and investing their money in tickets and etc. if the search engines determined popularity then ggg ward would be a more popular fight than ggg cotto despite ggg cotto would do better numbers due to the fighter popularity.

Mosley-Mayorga II was on PPV a couple weeks ago. They stars too I guess. I think that one was at like 166. Guess PPV Mosley on Superstar G's radar now too.

[kafkod]

So moving up 1 division is all the sudden ridiculous.....did you read what you just posted?.GGG was chasing Floyd and Manny for crying out loud...and Ward is now looking to face Sergy..but GGG's team and his fans are full of ****

Was he fuck chasing Floyd and Manny.

That's not exaggerating, that's lying.

He answered a couple of questions about Floyd, saying he would fight him at 154, IF HE WAS OFFERED IT.

How does that equate to chasing Floyd and Manny?

What's this garbage? Of course casuals would be excited about it, even some insiders. But hardly anyone took it serious here on NSB, cause everyone understood that Floyd is just a paper champ at SWW despite all world credentials
