That's fair. Re: DeGale & the Dirrells, they'd better be better than GGG on the outside because GGG usually like to control the center of the ring & pressure guys into corners. Ward's style is still the only one that makes sense to me as the possible strategy to beat GGG.Well if we haven't seen it we can't say he has it. We do see him hit enough that he should develop ways to get out of the way, and looking at Sanchez's camp no one else is able to do it so I don't expect ggg to be able to either.
As far as the strategy I proposed, many fighters can put pressure on a guy and stay in face, you don't need to be a volume puncher to do that. Ward throws about 50 a rd and will more than likely hit golovkin with half or more, and he can make it up close and rough on the guy. DeGale and the Dirrells are better on the outside than ggg so that would be a winning strategy for them. More than one way to skin a cat you know.Comment

Don't tell me my business. I only gave the betting trends as extra information to true boxing fans. If you don't want to believe that big money is always on the favorite in boxing, & that casuals only come out to bet for big boxing events with named fighters, that's on you. There's no point in persuading you otherwise.Comment

I still stand by that position. You tried to turn it into a skill level argument and that wasn't my point. My point was GGG, just like Khan, will avoid certain challenging fights but wh0re himself out for the big money fights.Comment

Why call it that? Did Floyd or Pac wh0re themselves to Oscar? Unlike Khan Ggg was not taking a sure Ko loss to Froch, Chavez for a huge purse. And unlike welter Khan he'll face all comers at his weight so not sure where you're going with that Khan thingComment

Agreed...
Good post. Both of you guys are speaking TRUTH! GGG is the real deal BUT he has not been battle tested. FACT. Canelo has though. Canelo has two legacy wins already. Lara and Cotto. He has fought better fighters, hands down. He will be the most skilled fighter GGG has ever faced when they fight. And they WILL fight! Canelo wants the fight so it will happen. People need to lay off of the kid and be patient. He has legal stuff going on right now also. I like GGG but he can be beat by the right fighter. Ward would definitely beat him. A fight with Canelo is 50/50. Canelo has all of the tools to beat GGG, he just has to do it on the night. GGG's fans are as bad as Floyd's fans. Smh. And Sanchez is a ******!!!!!!! He needs to S.T.F.U.!Comment

claims he can beat "anyone from 154-168" for FOUR YEARS.....
But, when push-comes-to-shove.....
164 or No Fight.....
Mandalay Bay, Las Vegas - Abel Sanchez, trainer of WBA/IBO middleweight champion Gennady 'GGG' Golovkin, has made it absolutely clear that he's not going to budge from his position that a potential fight with Andre Ward will only happen if Ward - the recognized champion at super middleweight - is wiling to meet them halfway at a catch-weight of 164-pounds. Golovkin and his team received more than their fair share of heat in recent days, after placing a catch-weight demand on a potential fight with Ward. The reason for the heat, is because Golovkin was willing to fight both Carl Froch and Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. at the full super middleweight limit.
160 or no fight.....

Ward was right, lil'G hoodwinked the fans.....
Super middleweight champion Andre Ward (28-0, 15KOs) says the fans were hoodwinked by Gennady 'GGG' Golovkin (33-0, 30KOs) and his team, promoter Tom Loeffler and trainer Abel Sanchez. A few weeks ago, Loeffler denied that there were ever negotiations for a possible fight between the two sides. Ward claims a formal 50-50 offer was made, and he has proof by way of email, and says the offer was rejected in five minutes and he was told that 'maybe in 2017' the fight can happen.Comment
