I think winner of cotto/canelo vacates. It's gonna be GGG vs. Lee next

So this guy wants Championship unification and this forum is hating on that? Shouldn't every current champion be saying the samething? You only see GGG, Kovalev and Wladimir bring up UNIFICATION.

He has conveniently decided to take that position, today.

168 used to be fair game for GGG until boogieman Ward crawled out of his hole.

He used to look at 168, but Ward scared him off.

Firstly , Dawson said he'd come down in weight , so he did it to himself . Why must people keep repeating the same false statements when they've been corrected over 100 times ? Secondly , Ward wants GGG @ 168 nothing north of that . But if u wanna claim Ward is 2 weight divisions above GGG then that works advantageously to GGG's favor , not Wards, as weight draining yourself 2 divisions for a fight is career suicide .

Dawson asked for a catchweight and tried to negotiate a catchweight which was rejected by Ward. Of course the blame goes on Dawson for taking the fight at 168 but he DID try to work out a deal on a weight that would be more fair to each side.

Unification is f.uck'n pointless when you have beltholders the caliber of Lemieux, Andy Lee, and a couple jr middleweights. He's fighting bums, avoiding the biggest threat to him, and his idiot fanbase is massaging his nutz for it.

Exactly !

The warzone used to include 168.

Now 168 is a demilitarized zone.

He's been saying he wants unification for the longest time, man. They flirted with the idea of a fight at 168 for big money when they couldn't get a decent opponent at 160. Now they just had a unification yesterday and have immediate mandatory for the WBC/lineal next. Of course they aren't going to leave 160 now being that they are potentially one fight away from a super fight.

Who would he fight at 168 right now anyway? Ward isn't interested in fighting him until mid 2016.

GGG doesn't need to rush a fight with Ward. What's the urgency for, it is not a huge event yet, Ward must build his reputation again. Super Six was 2011, nobody remembers that. GGG is trying to be our era's Bernard Hopkins, and there's nothing wrong with that, he wants to make history books. Some say he's waiting to fight "smaller" middleweights, well what were the most notable wins for B-Hop? two "small" middleweights in Tito and Oscar.

GGG is the full package, he can shut out the opponent without putting you to sleep. He is blessed with tremendous power and knows how to pace himself. Mayweather is very skilled and it's not his fault he can't punch hard but GGG give's you money's worth. I actually think Floyd-GGG at 154 is a very close fight, can Floyd be elusive for 12 rounds against that power? can GGG stay focused even when he's punching air and getting tagged with pot shots? can he even carry his power with him down in weight? I would love to see it.

GGG-Mayweather is mega fight.
GGG-Ward is not mega fight.

Ward must get his body used to 175 and then take on Kovalev. If Ward beats him then just like that he becomes P4P number one because Kovalev is more dangerous than GGG's whole resume. Then after that he can meet GGG in a super fight.

Yep you're right, Ward/Golovkin would not be a super event for Golovkin.

They tried to make the Ward fight. Now they have belts lined up.

Be afraid, be very very afraid.

You know Ward isn't saving Cotto right.

Just so you know.

Link ?

I have Dawson on record saying that he refused to consider a catchweight because they wanted Wards belt.
