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

[youbeight]

OK fine, I'd love to see the fight as well. But Gggs fortunes have turned and he's finally doing great business at his weight and has opportunities to unify and finally become The Champ at MW. So lets see Ward Kovalev asap, screw the tuneups. They're closer in weight, neither guy has anything going, and most importantly, its perceived as the much more competitive fight, which boxing fans like

i have no issue with that, I've always been happy with fans looking out for the best fights, its when ppl start talking about why fights SHOULDN'T happen that gives me a headache, especially in this scenario, its a good fight, they're both in their prime, and they'd be each others hardest test if they both fought. downplaying it bc of the popularity narrative is why ppl took a rightful s*it on floyd, so expect it as well from fans using the same narrative in ggg favor. i want ggg to unify and beat everyone at 160, i want ward to move up to 175 and see if he can beat kovalev and some other top 175 fighters and then maybe GGG and ward can fight then or maybe sooner than that if its possible.

Ward had the luxury of being in a tournament. That's the only reason he has those names on his resume.
Without the S6 it would be Miranda, Bika, Dawson(at 168 lol) E-Rod.
Maybe a rematch with Shelby Pudwill lol

Go ahead and say Miranda n Bika are better than anyone on GGG's resume, "MUH RESEME DOE!" blah blah blah.

Look at Bute's fights with Miranda and Bika then watch Andre Ward's fights vs Miranda and Bika.
It's clear why Ward wanted no part of Bute, despite saying that he would fight Bute and clean out the division.
Lucian ****ing Bute lol
"MUH 2 or 3 YEARS AGO!" lol

If, if, if, if, if, if, if, if. I don't care how thw names got there, they got there. Andre Ward is younger than GGG. They've been pro basically the same amount of time. Amd we're still waiting on GGG to fight somebody with a pulse. So anwser the question. When's ya boy gonna fight some good opponents?

Lol, Golovkin fans.... simply offering to fight a retired Froch is as good as beating a prime Cobra? Delusional. The article is correct, Golovkin has ONLY fought journeyman whereas Andre has put a clinic on numerous noteworthy fighters in their prime. THAT'S how he became so great. Golovkin hasn't even beat a Bika-level opponent.

They approached Froch when Chavez backed out last summer, when Froch wasn't retired. In fact he was easily the #1 active SMW, and p4p ranked everywhere, unlike when he fought Ward.

Going up in weight to face a p4per like that on his home turf in the UK is way better than anything Ward has done. Hell Ward just fought a tune-up at 172, and yet Yunieski Gonzalez is a step too far lol.

Bika is no better than many Ggg opponents.

Sounds good to me. But you know full well Ward is hard to negotiate with, and that 50/50 offer for next year is far out, and not a good start

i think if team ggg just stopped with all the bs pr campaigns and just admitted the reason they dont want to fight ward is because hes to big/to good the second reason being the most important. the money would of been right we all know that everything else is just bs its plan and simple

[Cinci Champ]

the funny thing is ggg homers cant even say go fight kovalev anymore cause ward is doing just that he aint scared like little g

[damian War]

litte g AKA 36 minutes

the biggest coward is the history of boxing. there has never been a coward on this level.

clown paul smith all you want.. but all i see on little g resume is paul smith on top of paul smith.

all we want is for the chump to prove his hype by fighting the best.. rubios leftover doesn't prove a damn thing and asking him to climb ONE division isn't too much to ask for, if hes that good anyway

ward will collide with kovalev next year, win or lose that proves ward is out to prove himself while little g continues to put tomato cans on his belt.

[Cinci Champ]

Why is team Ward still looking to bully a guy who is 2 divisions below him, when he should be facing the number one guy in his division?

they aint they are tired of hearing all the bs lies they are moving on to kovalev because they have balls unlike ggg

[youbeight]

Sounds good to me. But you know full well Ward is hard to negotiate with, and that 50/50 offer for next year is far out, and not a good start

i think thats why he went in roc nations path, hell top rank and GBP couldn't get cotto vs canelo done but roc nation was able to. and cotto looks like to be getting the more of the pie unlike the situation before roc nation. question is can roc nation make ward look attractive in term of $$, bc a win of kovalev in late 2016 would definitely do it especially considering it would be a great fight in the stub hub with canadian ppv and international broadcast to box nation.

[Cinci Champ]

LOL who to believe PPV Megastar Gennady Golovkin or 3tuneupdoe Undercard Ward who nobody knows or cares about? Ugly ass coward low life piece of ****.

well its pretty clear roc nation was serious about making the fight i mean why wouldnt they be and how is he a coward if hes now moving on and going to fight kovalev? i mean i know ggg is ur dude ur favorite fighter but come on be real
