Unfortunately you're talking about Ward who's one of the biggest pains to get a fight with... It's ironic that you pick a guy who can't even get fights going. You want GGG to accomodate Ward. Like everyone else has had to do? 164 is fair. Ward isnt chavez jr or Froch... He doesn't have room to ask for these things and thats the bottom line. This isnt Dawson he has to bring down in weight or do some kind of catchweight like his previous fight... GGG has pull now and 164 was in the middle. Your argument is totally off as Canelo is a champ in that same weight class and GGG only wants the full limit allowed. Personally I dont care for the catchweight for two fighters in the same division but Canelo is in a position to make the decisions. Ok, he gets stripped..and? He still has his name which is the prize for GGG, not the belt. That's Canelo's thinking. Kind of like Floyd-Canelo. Floyd has fought at 154, he didn't need the 2 pounds. But he took them because he could. The same way you want to be delusional about Ward having his way, Canelo wants his but he can actually dictate that. Ward has no bargaining power...is outside of the class and if you want to get technical, Ward has fought at 160 before as well as 175 not being new to him..why would GGG give Ward an advantage for absolutely no reason? Just because Ward refuses? GGG can walk away from Ward no problem... Ward as a talent I love, but his decision making outside of the ring leaves a lot to be desired as a boxing fan. GGG's camp has been hipocritical there is no denying it but Ward isnt the one you want to be the face of your argument lol.
Point is, GGG isn't doing to Ward what Canelo is doing to GGG but the principle is similar. GGG's camp is wrong in the sense that the star card is a two way street. While he can dictate to Ward if Ward truly wants it, they can't do that to Canelo. Any soul wants to fight Canelo. If he gets stripped he can fight any of the other champs...theyd be glad to. Or he can just make his money fighting whoever he wants, move to 54 or whatever. GGG's team needs to bottom line give in to the fact they're the b itch of this situation and the only way to get out of the position is to fight and win against Canelo. All the cash cows have bowed to demands from the a side before them. GGG is no different. Floyd had to beat Oscar for it, Manny ****** it up vs Flpyd, Canelo ****** it up for Floyd and now Ggg needs to suck it up for Canelo. GGG CANT not fight Canelo. He'll become big if he keeps knocking guys out but he wont get to where he wants without a Canelo type name on his resume.
Ward needs to just fight and stop the b ullsht. Stop wasting everybody's time..i love to see his skill on display but come on man... An injury prone B side with promotional issues and a diva personality is totally going to get a fight with GGG at an advantage. Get real. A p4p fighter shouldnt have to have 2-3 fights before fighting the top in their division... When do you hear of that? That'd be like Mayweather saying he needed 3 fights for Canelo at 154... When someone says that if you listen to it backwards on a tape recording it really says "Im hoping he loses along the way or something else happens to him"
