Comments Thread For: Golovkin's Coach Explains Why Froch is Worth 168, But Not Ward

[Outwest Exp 355]

GGG vs Ward is the biggest payday because of the PPV. GGG haters would be all in to see GGG lose. A fight vs Froch doesn't do anything for PPV buys in America. But Ward is a fight GGG could actually lose.

What's with Sanchez trying to fight all these retired guys?

[chepboxingking]

he wouldnt make 4-5 mil for Ward. and Cotto still wouldnt wsnt any part. after fighting at 168, hes not gonna get below 160, which he needs to for either Cotto or Canelo. so, actuslly its ur logic thats flawed

...what?? Are you even a boxing fan? DLH, floyd, Pacquiao to name a few, all went up in weight for big fights and dropped back down. Floyd went up to 154 fought DLH THAN came back down and started making 20+ mil a fight. I'm sure this would be same outcome as a networkS would give GGG same type of guaranteed $$

Thats what I think , the PPV is huge for Ward vs GGG , this is just Abel talking his sht to justify cherry picking , the bottom line is GGG will be beat by WArd and thats what they are scared off .

WTF he moved up 5 weight classes , beat more WC and HOFs than any fighter in history and Floyd fought elite fighters in every weight classes giving away weight in 98% of his fights , didnt take risks are you serious lol if you believe that better you take a big look what others have done by comparison !

Apples to oranges.

After 10 years in the game, Floyd fought guys who really had no chance to beat him. Oscar was really the only one, and only because he'd stacked the deck against PBF.

Yes, late 90's and very early 2k Floyd was facing true threats. But that didn't last when he reinjured his hand against Baldomir. Beyond that Floyd was always fighting guys he knew he could beat. Champions sure, but nowhere near his level.

I'm not dissing Floyd, I'm a Floyd fan, but let's be honest here.

Golovkin's now 10 years in and he still hasn't fought anybody who was a threat besides Rosado and even that was a beating. Champions sure, but nowhere near his level.

Thats all I'm saying. Risk aversion is the new game. Even Terrence Crawford is getting in on the good stuff.

[gmc_rfc_06]

So it's a business now?

Yet, they aren't willing to go even a pound below 160 for Canelo which is by far the biggest fight and pay day available? You'll earn millions in a megafight.

You can't say it's all about the belts while saying the opposite about Froch.

Did you forget about the Corrales fight? Floyd was an underdog in the fight, yet he dropped him 5 times and stopped him. Canelo, pacman, DLH, Hatton, to name a few, we're all good fights at the time, until floyd made them look silly now we look back and say they had no business being in the ring with him. Floyd did fight the best of his era, just no one really stand a chance

It's amazing how much **** we had to hear before all of these fights mentioned above (plus a few more), how the other guy was a problem and Mayweather was going to lose.

Then after its the same b.s. "He was past it." "He's a bum." "He had no chance." "It was a cherry pick."

Same old ****. It never fails

[bambam182]

lol all the GGG nut huggers are trying to justify.


Max keller: You told me yesterday you are willing to go from 154 all the way up to 168, are you willing to fighting anyone from 154-168??

GGG: yeah of course, ANYONE, of course!!!



wont fight ward at 168, so obviously GGG lied.

GGG wants ward at a catchweight of 164, but wont fight canelo at 155 catcweight.

triple G can give catchwieght demands but wont fight at a catchweight when called out to one.

****** GGG nut huggers say GGG can dictate ward because ward is inactive and isnt a huge draw. he cant dictate canelo though, canelo is active and a way bigger star. but GGG nuthuggers say its not true.

justify this GGG nut huggers.

i want to hear your outrageous claim.
