    He could go pick off the best guy at 175 and come back down, like he expected of GGG. But who are you kidding, he needs at least 3 tuneups to be ready for the top LHW, with a 3lb weight handicap

      Lil' Gina was already willing to move up and back down against other fighters, just not Ward. Lil' Gina fans keep trying to forget about this, because it shows the weight wasn't a problem.

        Well it's better being willing to move up (for a one off, without putting on weight!) vs #1 active SMW, p4p Froch than struggling to make 168 yet needing 1.5 years to feel ready for #1 LHW, requiring 3 tuneups etc

          Lil' Gina wanted 2 years before even considering to fight Ward "Maybe 2017"

            Ward Kovalev probably doesn't happen till then so not much different. Except Ward would be doing his thing on BET, and GGG packing arenas, stripping superstar Canelo, and being #1 topic on Nsb

              Vacant titles, $20 tickets and a ******ed fanbase. That's Lil' Gina's legacy.

                Lol, so he could fight a bunch of nobodies while waiting for a guy that will NEVER fight him. Or, he could step up in weight and go after the biggest challenge in boxing right now. And, you guys want to criticize him for that?
                Because the hate is real, guys freak about him actually warming up to the new weight class with just 2 fights after a LONG layoff.

                No matter how you guys try to spin this, Ward has the biggest balls in boxing right now. No other dominant, undefeated champ is going after another dominant, undefeated champ in the next weight class up. Staying at 168 and fighting those chumps would have been the easy way.

                  I think fully unifying MW, breaking Hopkins' defense record, most title KOs etc will count for more. And what the heck, those sold arenas don't hurt

                    Not easy, apparently he really struggles to make 168 these days.

                      Paper thin argument because he went to the network Koalev is on and named his target. He could have fought random 175lbers if he was forced to that weight class. Could have gone after Stevenson. Could have done catch-weights forever, stalled out, or have done so many other things but he chose the greatest challenge possible, with a reasonable 2 fights to get back in the game and acclimated to the new weight class.

                      You guys are trying to argue that 2+2=3 and everyone is just laughing at you. Just accept the truth and find something else to argue about that doesn't make you look foolish.
