Ward "Little G Golovkin Has To Answer for not stepping up"

[Citizen Koba]

I offered Gennady Golovkin a fight at 172 but he didn’t fancy it because I’m too big and strong for him and I can’t make middleweight,” said Froch to the Dailymail. “If I did box again, it would be at 172, at a catchweight. (Sergey) Kovalev could happen but I would rather play my poker. You don’t get hit in the face. Boxing is a hurt game, it’s not like football where you lose 5-0 or tennis where you lose in three sets, in boxing you go home on a stretcher

Yeah, that's a recent one. Also this from November last year when the meeting actually took place.

"Loeffler, Gennady Golovkin’s manager, I asked him what weight we could fight at. [I] said would he [Golovkin] come up to 172, and he said no. He said he probably wouldn’t even come up to super middleweight,” Froch said to Talksport.com. “So if I was to come back, it would have to be for a really good one like Gennady Golovkin and having said that he’s talking about dropping down to fight Canelo Alvarez.”

In both a potential Canelo fight is cited as one of the reasons GGG was no longer interested.

This seems to be video of the meeting referenced FWIW.

Gennady Golovkin


34 years old

35 fights

only 3 versus former titleholders

0 wins over elite opponents

only won 1 title in the ring out of 3 he holds

does'nt have 16 title defenses because he was elevated and never won the wba FULL/Super title

thats the truth...now can you handle the truth

there is ONE point of agreement, and thats that WBA defenses made while Sturm was super champ (even though Sturm ducked him) should not count.

But other than that, you are simply a hater. Do you think he should kidnap other fighters and force them to face him? The list of GGG duckers has been posted many times, so no need to rehash all that. The man can only fight those who are willing to face him. And if your only response is some ******ed "but but but lara doe but but ward doe" nonsense, pointing to fights in other divisions that simply are not makeable (for a number of reasons), then like 99% of your other posts, this one fails spectacularly as well........

Floydhype thompson and his minions putting words into Ward's mouth. Poor Ward, they use his name to hate the Kazakh fighter without his consent. Funny part was Ward ducked the fight when it was offered by HBO. He said something about his shoulder and promoter. LOL. Man I'm not even a GG fan or a Ward hater. This is pure evil. Twisting facts to propagage evil.

Great post green k sent

they took from the George w bush hand book " when you get on that horse, you gotta ride it!!!"

the thing is, the horse has been dead and limp for 2 years

this isnt 2013-2014 anymore...dude is a known fighter now, fans are getting restless

I dont need hbo, ring magazine, or bwaaa to pump a fighter up for me.....you cant tell fans and force feed how great someone is...we have to see for ourselves and at this point with GGG, I aint seen ***** to suggest p4p, hall of famer or all time great...he has the talent though...k2 has to start taking risks

LOL. Hating on a guy that's being ducked instead of the ducks is pure evil.
