    Ward/Golovkin is a great fight. I hope we get to see it some day.
    Canelo/Cotto both want GGG at 155 -- he will eventually agree if needed (I mean "for the right money")...
    Golovkin wanted Ward at 164... What was Ward's answer? ("I'll fight Murdock"?)

      bro....its 8 or less pounds....it does matter to a certain degree but lets be real...it doesn't make much difference in GGG vs Ward nor Ward vs Kov

      skills and adjustments will be the biggest factor not size

      the fighters are separated by less than 10 pounds.....its not like either match up they will be dwarfed like Pac vs 170 pound Margo or Joey Gamche being outweighed 20 lbs vs Gatti

        You do realize Cotto is the middleweight champion of the world right?

        Now once again why do you want ward to fight the smaller guy beneath his division?

          the division is 7-8 lbs. apart.

          doesn't mean the fighters will only be 7-8 lbs. bigger.

            size wont be a big factor in either fight IMO.....Just sounds like a ready made excuse if Ward lost to Kov or if GGG lost to Ward

              you don't know that until they fight.

                  exactly, it goes both ways...we can agree to disagree but what we can agree on we wont know if it will or wont be a factor til the fights happen.

                      ... wasn't you boy heading North in order to fight Kovalev "at some point"?... or he's only pretending and he gets the HBO money while actually still looking for the GGG fight?
