Why do you assume that GGG/Ward would have been PPV?Your right GGG is the #1 MW. But when the fight was talked about Ward was still at 168 or willing to fight at it and K2 seems to more then willing to go to 168 for a big name just not Ward.
Ward /GGG would have been a PPV and a fight hardcore boxing fans would have loved with the winner being able to make claim as the #1 P4P. the only fight bigger $ on the horizon for GGG is Canelo who doesn't seem to be in a hurry to fight him, everyone else at MW isn't a attractive fight or is over on the PBC side.
Since most of the big names on 168 are on the PBC side Ward has decided to chase greatness and go up and probably face Kov in the fall.
Not saying Gennadys scared because the guys a warrior but K2 didn't/don't want to chase greatness they seem content with being the #1 guy in a weak division and with fighting the Wades,Lemiuex and Minroes of the world. I'm a GGG fan but it's been a couple years and he isn't getting any younger it's time for him to fight a legit name.
No Andre Ward fight has ever been PPV before and GGG made his PPV debut AFTER he got that "fight me sometime next year" offer from Ward.Comment

It's possible. We haven't seen him in the ring with a live body since Rodriguez, and haven't seen him fight a true test since Froch.Comment

The purses they would command to fight each other pretty much guarantees Ward/Golovkin would have been PPV. There's no way HBO could have afforded it otherwise. Plus both sides pretty much only talked about it as a PPV.Comment

Abel trying to take Freddie Roach's job of being the trainer saying the nuttiest ****. Granted its possible he could be right, but I don't think we've seen anything to suggest that its a fact yet.Comment
