      You're right. I'll stop ragging on the journeyman and cut right to the chase. Wade hasn't looked good against anybody. He's just not that good.

        Sauders is no star elite fighter neither is Jacobs the MW division is soft atm , 168 is where GGG will be tested and thats all guys wanna see and even thats not a strong division now Ward left it , and while you are on Ward dont forget he only went to 175 because GGG refused to fight him , the CW is ducking BS .
        B graders like Gennady has fought dont cut in my mind when people are saying he is better than Hagler what a load of BS , Ive seen it my whole life that fans are impressed with power and koes , they love Butterbean type fights and dont like pure skill , my guess is they dont understand skill .
        ward turned down the fight years ago or did you forget that? if ggg wasn't figthing wade he would be fighting ward right...oh wait that wasn't until nov/dec of 2016 anyway. yeah ggg needed to construct his entire career around waiting for ward otherwise it was a duck lmao you actually believe that? why didn't ward just offer ggg the fight last year??? or now? oh yeah the tune ups i forgot. ward wasn't ready but it was ggg who ducked. you actually believe this?

        also ward said he was struggling badly to make 168 so yeah that wasn't the only reason he went to 175.

          then again... Wade can shock the world and all this hype talk will be over.
          He's not dedicated enough to shock the world. He will be fighting with a house arrest ankle bracelet on come fight night and has like a ton of drunk driving arrests. He has no business fighting a top p4p fighter.

            GGG ducked Ward there is no doubt in my mind about that and I also know Ward would beat him and so does Team GGG know Ward would beat him , spin it any way you like .

              This right here. Wade is talented but just too ****** get his priorities in check. Rather hang with the boys and get in trouble than be in the gym. A lot of times that what seperates the great from the good.

                I dont know why anyone feels the need to try to hype Wade..the guy simply is not a world class fighter and the IBF is dead wrong for forcing this mismatch

                  ok but when you make a claim you need evidence to back it up. i don't see any evidence that he ducked. i see evidence that ggg didn't make ward his top priority and didn't do everything he possibly could to make the fight including accepting terrible offers but how is that a duck?

                  its like you are expecting ggg to stop what he is doing and only think about ward and only think about fighting ward. if he doesn't do that its a duck? they aren't even in the same division, ward wasn't reasonable with the money, ward wanted tune ups first, ward wanted to fight in 15 months, ggg had a much bigger canelo fight on the horizon.

                  the boxing world doesn't revolve around ward. i notice how you never hold ward to any high standards or any standards period. you never say how come ward didn't offer ggg the fight right away. he could have done that but he didn't. still ggg's fault somehow right? you never say how come ward didn't stay at 168 and wait for ggg to be available? ggg's fault ward couldn't make the weight anymore right?

                  you expect ggg to do everything even if its unfair just to get the ward fight. this is a strange bizarro mindset since in boxing the people who make more money call the shots yet its ward who generates far less calling the shots and you are defending him calling the shots. this is the direct opposite of how you think when disussing every other fighter so i question your credibility.

                  if you haven't noticed ward is a diva. he tries to call the shots on everything no matter what reality says. he wouldn't fight in the super six unless he had all his fights in his home country while other guys fought in 3-4 countries. he wouldn't fight bute because he hadn't earned it, wouldn't fight stevenson because he hadn't beat anyone, wouldn't fight froch because it was in froch's hometown(aren't all of ward's fights in his hometown?) yet he can't travel when he's clearly the b-side? wanted 50-50 from ggg and wanted ggg to wait 15 months to fight him even thogh ggg is a bigger star. get the picture? its hard to make fights with this guy. are you going to say all those guys ducked ward because they wouldn't bend over backwards for him? the only guy who was willing to put up with ward's diva behavior is kovalev because kovalev isn't a big star and he enjoys torturing people.

                    The only one that ducked was Ward, he never refuted turning the fight down in 2013.

                      Let's be real now, Taylor only won because Soliman destroyed his knee and could barely stand up.
