Why do people want to see Golovkin face a fighter 2 weight classes above? (Ward)

I don't get where this GGG being size disadvantaged at 168 comes from.
He's clearly better than everyone else at 160 so needs to move up.
Mayweather, Pac, Rigo and Marquez are and were disadvantaged in their weight divisions, but that doesn't stop them competing in them.
GGG's an Olympic medalist, he should be chasing greatness.Comment

I want GGG to clean out the division, Hagler never moved up in weight, I rather see GGG do a Hopkins and Hagler and Monzon, clean out the division and make repeated unified title defenses.
Only problem is Haymon wont make a GGG unifier with the winner of Jacobs vs Quilin, Haymon is hard to work with unless you make him an adviser of your fighter, he wont work with you.
you dont have to move up in weight to be considered great. Only reason to move up is that you can't make the weight anymore and outgrown the division, like Ward the guy cant make 168 anymore he had a catchweight of 173 his last fight and is moving to 175, fighting GGG is not possible and is the same thing as when ward called Floyd out to fight him at 160 pounds.
People insisting that GGG move up to SMW are idiots. What is Golovkin supposed to do? Take HGH to make him start growing again? The guy is a NATURAL MIDDLEWEIGHT and he should be allowed to fight his entire career as a MW if that is what he wants to do.Comment

Because it's the only way pure, slick boxers like Hopkins and Ward can beat other p4p guys.
You will never see a great fighter like Ward give up size advantage, and if he does, it will be by weight draining his opponent.Comment

To say there is no money in a Ward fight is disingenuous. There was no money in a fight with Lemieux and they put that together no problem. A fight with Ward sh.its all over last nights numbers. However I still stand by my position that GGG doesn't need Ward.Comment

you're right. therefor he should not fight golovkin. the best MW on the planet, who has a good chin, reach, and punching power, is just too small to fight at SMW.
he's too small to give up an inch and ahalf of height to ward, a couple of inches of reach, and maybe 5 lbs in the ring.\
ward should fight klitschko instead.Comment
