    It's so funny to then hear them call other fighters cowards for not facing GGG, yet their own fighter shies away from the closest challenge to him. You can't make this stuff up.

      Well, I hope so. But something tells me it won't happen.

      If they were keen, GGG's team wouldn't have suggested having the fight at 164.

              If war was at 168 or 160 then you would have a point but he is fighting at 172. Come on man

                No one with anything to lose moves out of their weightclass unless it's for a major fight. Not Floyd, not Pacquiao, unless perhaps for Margarito, but Margarito despite being massive in comparison is also massively miniature compared to Ward skillwise.

                If Pacquiao or Floyd moved out to fight someone who wasn't huge it was because they were moving up regardless.

                    He's not asking GGG to face him at 172. I shouldn't really have to state the obvious.
