    and floyd was willing to fight hoya but not spinks even though spinks was ranked higher yet no one brings that up because selective amnesia is going around. even though this isn't the same thing at all since ggg already tried to fight ward and he said no and then ward tried to fight ggg for 50-50 and if spinks had tried to do that with floyd you would have laughed but here you are claiming duck because your brain has been switched to extremely biased mode where you have incredibly fluctuating standards on what ducking is depending on who you like.

      Now GGG wants to collect the middleweight titles and have big $$$ fights (specifically Canelo). Hence why they rejected Ward's bs 50/50 offer of 168. Cause they were the mandatory of Canelo/Cotto.
      So basically GGG can duck and pretend he didnt. LOL.

        It's the exact same case scenario as most people going down in weight to fight Mayweather.. he brings money.. something you know best Larry


        Froch has quite a large fan base.. Ward, not so much.

          GGG vs Ward needs to happen. Period. For the fans. Leave money and belts at the door, like Canelo says, in Mexico, we fight for the glory.

            Yes it is the reason. Why fight a very good, small money fighter two weight classes up from you.

            It's high risk, low reward. It makes no sense.

              Abel said Ward vs GGG is the biggest fight to make if Ward beats Kovalev

                After Golovkin's camp said no to the offer, Ward moved on, began the bulk in earnest, and is now walking into the ring for his fights in the mid 180s (fighting at 175, with Kovalev lined up).

                With Ward and his camp being sharp, he's not going to wreck his body to come down any weight for any fight.

                    Nobody wanted Canelo to move up. We wanted him to man up and fight the No1 in his own division.

                      No one is talking about Mayweather man..fact is Ward being at 175 is not the reason the fight isnt happening..but we are beyond that now
