Comments Thread For: Golovkin's Coach: Sergey Kovalev Beats Andre Ward

[aboutfkntime]

from this day foward team GGG should be unable to say the name ward without saying "master" like the fresh prince butler first...

karma will have that bill joe beat andy lee and never allows u guys to get a go at his title..instead al haymon will give him more to give it to peter quillen...

ducking served to a ducker...thats how karma would have it

They used to get good mileage by mentioning Wards name but I think they prefer to threaten him with Kovalev now.

Be careful for what you wish for...GGG vs Ward was and is still a pick em fight. Anything more is pretty biased, but right now they're on diverging roads...

I dont think anyone from Team Golovkin thinks that.

Blow smoke and fight cab drivers. Ward is not into high profile fights nowadays doe.

That is exactly what Golovkin is doing. Its shameful that they will likely beat Hopkins record by matching Golovkin up with such underwhelming opponents.

Hopkins run at 160 will always be better than Golovkins because the division was much better and because Hopkins beat elite fighters along the way.

NAW ward beats him easy...he backs right up when he's pressured by a double jab..and he doesnt look for shots to come after that...or he stands his ground and runs you into a clinch...but with ward in a clinch he'll catch a bit of beat down if he does not work..and he never works in the clinch...he has not shot at outjabbing ward...

i stopped givving ggg a shot after saturday..he would try to box with ward and lord knows he cant

I can see this fight going similar to Hopkins/Kovalev, where the European fighter shows his boxing prowess in giving the American a lesson in the noble art.
Golovkin would establish distance and start to work off a strong jab which will keep Ward at distance for most of the fight. On occasion he'll rush into close range getting caught with flush, punishing blows on the way in, but will have a modicum of success via use his head, elbows and whatever he can. Golovkin could get cut......but will gain a unanimous points victory.

It's called an opinion people...don't have to accept it, don't have to agree with it. He's entitled to it just like you are.

Sure.

And we know exactly why Sanchez chooses to have that opinion today

Then obviously you didn't learn anything on Saturday, did you? What you should have realized is that Gennady will use different styles depending on the opponent. Why the fúck would anyone try to outbox Ward? Who did better against Floyd, Canelo trying to box him or Maidana trying to smother him and throw wild shots?

The difference here is that Golov is 10x the fighter Maidana ever dreamed of being, and he'll likely use proper distance and timing to land big shots on Ward. He won't go too far inside just to have Ward throw short shots or tie him up, and he won't try to jab from the outside either. He'll use his jab effectively, but it won't be his main weapon.

Come on man, if you're going try to talk shít about my guy, you'd better come correct.

Try to box Ward... wtf are you thinking?

I think it would play out very similar to the Mayweather/Pacquiao fight.

Except Golovkin hasn't got the tools that Pacquiao has.

That fight would be a 12 round boxing match, because there is nothing that Golovkin could do to prevent it from happening..... and Team Golovkin are well-aware of that.

[aboutfkntime]

Kovalev is obviously a manufactured fighter, same as Golovkin..... the Stevenson situation confirmed that..... but at least he usually appears willing to step up and take on a challenge.

Props to Kovalev for having the balls to take on a difficult fight.

Golovkin will never fight a threat, they wont even risk it with Lara.

Team Golovkin clearly want nothing to do with movers/spoilers.

How the f@ck do you know how to pressure golovkin mongo....talking about fighters that have been pressured and dropped that would Andre ward....golovkin ain't worried about ward...golovkin is light years beyond a froch,dawson and a Abraham and if ever they do fight your see, ward ain't done **** the last 3 years except picking up two tomatoe can wins and yet he thinks he earns a shot at the most feared man in the mddleweights......ward will have his judgement day when he faces kovalev......ohhh I forgot ward don't like fighting guys his own size and weight...but he has to now...hail golovkin the new king

[Dirk Diggler UK]

Even the trainer is now using Kovalev as a human shield for Golovkin
