    Pryor fought at 140 his whole career and never moved up an ounce. The same goes for Hagler, Zale, Monzon and many other all time greats. Hopkins never moved up until he was 41 years old. You not only don't know boxing today, you also don't know boxing history. Take a risk? GGG takes a risk every time he fights just like every other fighter. GGG is a 7 to 1 favorite to beat Brook while Ward is a 30 to 1 favorite to win his next fight. Tell Ward to take a risk real full of BS pugilist.

        Lil G hasn't taken a risk in his entire career. A WW is his biggest test, he said it himself.

          Pryor moved up at end of his career you moron. A risk is a competitive fight, not Wade which West gate had 150 to 1.

That'a good way for a great fighter to lose.He makes 160 with ease and he would be a huge betting favorite to beat any middleweight. If a 168 or 175 pound boxer who is just as good pound for pound as GGG comes along and GGG fights him at that fighter's weight he will lose. It takes a hell of a fighter to be the best in the world at his proper weight. To ask a fighter to fight above his correct and best weight weight is unfair. That's why they have weight classes. If two fighters are equal pound for pound the bigger fighter wins.Some posters say GGG should just move up to 168 or 175 as if it's no big deal just a walk in the park. It is a big deal.

            You mean your coward isn't man enough.

              Ward then tried defending himself saying he had an injury but he got stripped of his title for never presenting evidence that he had an injury.
              Good one. Thanks for posting it. Ward is great but he's like the elusive butterfly. Once in a long while he steps into the ring. GGG walks the walk and continues to remain active. Not his fault if no one has the testicular fortitude to fight him. Give Brook some credit for stepping up but he will in all likelihood be another statistic in GGGs resume.

                Ward is younger and has 6 less fights.

                It is Golovkin's fault he's not man enough to move up, Golovkin doesn't even have courage to fight middleweights.

                    Move up for whom? Who is ready to face him? Why do you throw moving up as if there was that huge megafight waiting for him at 168, while 160 has the more known guys and fights if people stop ducking. 168 has no hype whatsoever.

                      Golovkin replied to AllBoxing.ru:

                      "Hey, Ward, wake up! Why are you talking trash about other people? Speak for yourself. If you're trying to make a name for yourself by mentioning me to build up your own fight, then be a man about it and tell the truth. At our meeting with HBO they asked us whether we are ready to box. You know our answers - I said yes, you said no. You said something about your shoulder or promoter - I'm not interested in the reason, I only heard your "no." But you remember that HBO said then that they would need a long time to build-up the fight. Then what the **** are you talking about excuses?"
