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

[aboutfkntime]

We come back to this again. You're an embarrassing, clueless poser, nobody cares what you think. Every decent ranking will have the winner #1 at MW

Even though Golovkin would almost certainly beat him, and would almost certainly be a huge favorite with the bookies ?

You are an absolute tool kid !

Your projections are a joke, remember? Hey you know Floyd should have taken 50/50 to fight Winky Wright instead of his humiliating cut vs Oscar, its better business.

Make a thread for me bud, what's more lucrative for GGG, Canelo or Ward. Go ahead and open up with your powerful calculations lol

False comparison; Oscar De La Hoya was the sport's unquestioned top draw when that fight went down. Ronald "Winky" Wright hadn't even become a name fighter until 2004. Style aside, Wright was a non-draw (Floyd Mayweather coming to the table as the sport's p4p top fighter also gave him a bit of leverage at the Oscar negotiating table, which ended up with him getting a 30/70 "humiliating cut").

Canelo Alvarez takes 85/15 on the split, or more, for nearly every fight that he's in (a similar thing can be expected for Cotto); the fact that you think HBO's hype behind the man, and the fanboy attention that that generated for Golovkin, will somehow prevent Team Canelo or Team Cotto from offering Golovkin the equivalent of 10/90 as a flat purse, is laughable.

night all ^^

No, 2 tuneups to shake off the rust and get sharp following an 18-month layoff.

Likely another if the plan is to move up to LHW.

Learn the sport.

He last fought at 172. Needs a tune-up for each lb up to fight a less talented guy? I guess if your expectations are 8x lower for mr p4p lol

Canelo Alvarez is all of 25 years old; of course he's "draining himself" (in actuality, being that young, his body is still able to take off weight pretty comfortably).

Hilarious, though, that Golovkin's been basically fighting at 160 since he was 20 years old (last two years as an amateur were at same-day weight of 165lbs), yet you have no issue with his own boiling down; no physical develop over the last 13 years? gtfoh.

will laugh my face off when Golovkin gets stuck.

We have seen how cutting weight to 152 for a Mayweather fight affected Alvarez. He was NOT "able to take off weight pretty comfortably". And he was only 23 years old.

It is only 3 pounds difference doe, and he is 2 years older. I do not see him making 155 comfortably, it is his ABSOLUTE limit. And we have seen how it affects his boxing ability. *if in doubt, just check Mayweather fight

It's just a fact, ******. Yeah I know, your feelings, nobody cares about that ****

Glad to see this has all been cleared up, this is a duck plain and simple. Little g doesn't want anything to do with Ward, never has, just kept name dropping Ward to try to gain some fame.

Ward is a non draw, Canelo biggest star around, and you're again pulling bogus numbers out of your a$$. So wrong on everything again

[Mate_Parlov]

They will weigh 155 or less you tool, Cotto will likely weigh 153-154

I wouldn't give a shht if they were fighting for the pink crocs, that fight will determine the best JMW on the planet.

Facts says otherwise. It is the best MIDDLEWEIGHT in the world. You tool...

Except when HBO came calling, he said yes, Ward said no. But this joke offer, even you're probably not ****** enough to fall for that and that's saying something
