    Nah ... it's because Golovkin never ducked Ward or Lara.

      of course they didn't play out... froch was already on his way out chavez jr got some bs extension from arum. Only fight that was readily available was ward and ggg's team said 164 or no fight.

        Everything that could be said was done so on the first page. Thread should have ended.

          Leaving out the part about GGG just signing to fight Lemieux with the expectation of fighting for the WBC Cotto/Canelo winner after that. While we're at it, don't leave out the fact that Ward turned down a Golovkin fight at 168 pounds when Golovkin wasn't in his mandatory position and had more freedom to explore other options/weight classes. Wards/Roc Nations timing with their offer to Golovkin was always a curious one to me - they offered to fight knowing he had a fight with Lemieux and was mandatory to the WBC. They waited like one day then announced he (Ward) is going to campaign at 175.

              Yeah B-Hop moved and and DOWN to find challenges when he was dominated a weak Middleweight Division during his ERA so that is true

              GGG truly wants greatness he has to CHASE IT! Can't sit at 160 and wait for it to come to him I'm not disagreeing with that at all but then again when people like Canelo is Dropping Titles to avoiding fighting him how is that GGG fault?

                People fail to realize Bhop was at middleweight at least 13 yars and waited on smaller guys in Trinidad, Oscar,Winky, etc all to come up for his big fights before moving along and fighting Pavlick, Tarver etc. Bhop is the man and one of a kind old school fighter with balls but he spent a long time at middleweight defending his belts against mediocre opposition.

                  so you are admiting that canelo has actually ducked GGG?

                  and to answer your question, GGG didn't duck those guys, as they were fighting in different weight classes

                    Yeah that is true B-Hop chased Greatness but also better Paydays he did not settle for just dominating a weak Middleweight Division at the time

                      Ward = 168 champ

                      GGG = 160 champ

                      Candelita = 160 champ

                      Lara = 154 champ



                      Now you tell me which two guys should be fighting each other out of that bunch.
