Comments Thread For: Golovkin's Coach: We Never Asked Andre Ward For 164 Weight

[Robbie Barrett]

Ward couldn’t even make 168 at that time, he was fighting at 172, that’s why he went to 175 and now is talking about fighting Cruiserweight, crazy to think GGG would have changed his whole schedule around to fight a guy who never brought in any real money like Canelo or Floyd or even Froch, all of those fights made financial sense. A fight with Ward would not have made any sense once GGG was at the top level that he got too selling out big arenas like MSG, Forum, O2 and TMobile

A win over Ward would have made Golovkin legit. Ward is a professional, if he said he could make 168 he would have. Why ask for 164 if you think he couldn't make 168?

Golovkin ducked. He'd have been whooped anyway. I think even the Golovkin fans know that now.

Ward never fancied it. He'd have been jabbed to death and his clinching wouldn't have worked
